NetClaw Now Has Direct Access to Cisco’s Official Meraki and Catalyst Center API Documentation
Network automation with AI is powerful, but only when the AI has access to accurate, authoritative information. Today we’re excited to announce that NetClaw now integrates with Cisco’s official DevNet Content Search MCP server — giving our AI agent direct access to the source of truth for Meraki and Catalyst Center APIs.
The Problem with Guessing API Endpoints
When you ask an AI to help with Meraki or Catalyst Center automation, it typically relies on training data that may be outdated, incomplete, or simply wrong. API endpoints change. New features get added. Parameters get deprecated. The result? Code that doesn’t work, frustrating debugging sessions, and wasted time.
The Solution: Cisco-Approved MCP Integration
NetClaw now connects directly to Cisco DevNet’s official MCP server at https://devnet.cisco.com/v1/foundation-search-mcp/mcp. This means:
- Always accurate — API documentation comes straight from Cisco, not from cached training data
- Always current — As Cisco updates their APIs, NetClaw sees the changes immediately
- Always complete — Full OpenAPI specifications including parameters, response schemas, and examples
What This Enables
Meraki API Search
Ask NetClaw about any Meraki capability and it will search Cisco’s official documentation:
- "How do I configure L3 firewall rules?"
- "What’s the API for VLAN management?"
- "Show me the wireless SSID endpoints"
- "How do I set up OAuth for Meraki?"
NetClaw returns the exact API endpoints, HTTP methods, required parameters, and example payloads — all from Cisco’s official documentation.
Catalyst Center API Search
The same applies to Catalyst Center (DNA Center):
- "Find device inventory APIs"
- "How do I automate policy deployment?"
- "Show me assurance and health monitoring endpoints"
- "What APIs handle site provisioning?"
Operation ID Lookup
For developers who know exactly what they need, NetClaw can lookup specific Meraki operations by ID and return the complete OpenAPI specification:
Lookup: updateNetworkApplianceFirewallL3FirewallRules
Returns: Full spec including path, method, all parameters,
request body schema, response codes, and examples
Two New Skills
This integration adds two new skills to NetClaw’s arsenal:
| Skill | Purpose |
|---|---|
devnet-meraki-search |
Search Meraki Dashboard API documentation |
devnet-catalyst-search |
Search Catalyst Center API documentation |
No Authentication Required
The DevNet Content Search MCP is a public service — no API keys, no tokens, no setup. It just works.
Why This Matters
This isn’t just another integration. This is NetClaw getting authoritative access to Cisco’s own documentation. When you ask NetClaw about Meraki or Catalyst Center APIs, you’re not getting guesses based on training data — you’re getting answers sourced directly from Cisco DevNet.
The result: more reliable automation, fewer errors, and faster development cycles.
Get Started
NetClaw 71 MCP integrations now include DevNet Content Search. Just ask:
"Search Meraki API for firewall rules"
"Find Catalyst Center device inventory endpoints"
"Lookup the Meraki operation createNetworkMerakiAuthUser"
NetClaw will search Cisco’s official documentation and return exactly what you need.
NetClaw continues to grow — now with 162 skills backed by 71 MCP integrations, bringing authoritative network automation to your fingertips.
