Micronaut Fun is an MCP server that provides AI coding assistants with searchable access to official Micronaut framework documentation and guides. Built on the Micronaut framework and OpenSearch, the service exposes documentation sets as structured MCP resources, delivers search tools, and provides purpose-built prompts for common development workflows. Software engineers developing Java, Kotlin, or Groovy applications use this server to retrieve current framework guidelines, API references, and architecture standards without leaving their coding environments. By bridging the Model Context Protocol with the remote search backend, it enables AI clients to locate exact documentation sections, suggest idiomatic configurations, write unit and integration tests aligned with Micronaut standards, and inspect guides for cloud-native deployment. Users can connect through hosted endpoints or self-host the application using Gradle and Docker to inspect custom search indexes locally.

To integrate Micronaut Fun with your MCP client, configure the remote server endpoint: 1. Ensure your MCP client supports remote Model Context Protocol connections. 2. Add the remote server URL https://micronaut.fun/mcp to your client configuration file, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cline, VS Code, or IntelliJ IDEA with GitHub Copilot. 3. Save the configuration and restart your client application. 4. For running the service locally, clone the repository and run ./gradlew run. If using OpenSearch, launch the container using docker run -d --name micronautfunopensearch -p 9200:9200 -p 9600:9600 -e "discovery.type=single-node" -e "plugins.security.disabled=true" -e "OPENSEARCH_INITIAL_ADMIN_PASSWORD=DummyPassword#1233" opensearchproject/opensearch:2.19.3 and adjust configuration properties as described in the repository README at https://github.com/micronaut-projects/micronaut-fun.
Part of MCP Servers
Micronaut Fun exposes official Micronaut framework documentation and guides as Model Context Protocol resources. It provides search tools to query the index and includes reusable prompts designed to assist developers in writing idiomatic code, configuring modules, and implementing tests.
Micronaut Fun works with any MCP-compliant client. The project documentation provides explicit setup guides for Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cline, VS Code, and IntelliJ IDEA using GitHub Copilot.
You can connect your MCP client directly to the hosted remote server endpoint at https://micronaut.fun/mcp. Alternatively, you can run the application locally using Gradle and an OpenSearch Docker container by following the instructions in the project repository.
Yes, Micronaut Fun is an open source project maintained under the micronaut-projects GitHub organization. The complete source code, deployment configs, and documentation are available in the project repository.
