Welcome to the official documentation for the Duro Platform. This documentation will help you integrate Duro's powerful product lifecycle management capabilities into your applications.

### What is Duro?

Duro is a modern, highly configurable PLM platform that helps hardware teams manage their product data, collaborate on designs, and streamline their development process.

### What can you build?

With the Duro API, you can:

* Manage components and sophisticated BOM assembly structures
* Manage role based access controls for your organizations and libraries
* Search part data with a powerful filtering engine
* Access and update technical documentation
* Automate custom change management workflows
* Create custom integrations with your existing tools
* Build automated reporting and analytics
* Connect an AI assistant to your library with the [MCP server](/ai-integration/mcp.md)

### Getting Started

The fastest way to get started with the Duro API is to:

1. [Create a Duro account](https://durohub.com)
2. [Get authenticated](/getting-started/authentication.md)
3. Try our [Hello World](/getting-started/hello-world.md) example

### API Endpoints

The Duro GraphQL API — and its interactive Apollo Explorer — is available at:

```
https://api.durohub.com/graphql
```

### Connect an AI to Duro

Not every integration needs code. The Duro MCP server lets Claude — or any client that speaks the Model Context Protocol — work with your library directly:

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http duro https://mcp.durohub.com/mcp
```

Sign in the way you already sign in to Duro, choose a library, and start asking. Nothing to clone, no API key to paste. See [Duro MCP Server](/ai-integration/mcp.md).

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.durohub.com/readme.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `build a script that syncs our docs to a CMS` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
