What each does
Microsoft Learn MCP: Official remote MCP server that lets agents search and read current Microsoft Learn documentation and code samples (Azure, .NET, Microsoft 365 and more). Free, no API key.
mcpdoc (LangChain): Serves llms.txt documentation files you choose to your coding agent, so it reads the real docs. The maker archived the repo.
