search_symbols

MCP tool from Apple Doc MCP by MightyDillah

symbol-first search with exact-name resolution, wildcard support, and separate article results.

How to use it

Project documentation lists search_symbols for the Apple Doc MCP MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), then check which tools your installed version makes available. Tool availability can depend on configuration and credentials. A server handshake does not verify this tool’s behavior. See the full listing for setup details.
