description: ReadMe-hosted MCP server attached to the Instill Core developer docs (docs.instill-ai.com). It exposes the published
  API reference (list/search/get endpoint) plus a generic execute-request tool that sends a HAR request to the Instill Core
  API. It is a docs/API-reference server, not a purpose-built product tool server. Its docs pages (https://instill-ai.readme.io/docs/mcp.md
  and the changelog entry "MCP is now live for Instill Core docs!") are listed in llms.txt, but on 2026-10-09 they returned
  404 or a 429 anti-bot page.

notes:
- execute-request calls the Instill Core API (host api.instill-ai.com per the OpenAPI); those calls need a Bearer API key
  (instill_sk_***) even though the MCP endpoint itself is open.
