- [Development](https://docs.bridge.ls/development/development.md): Build Bridge locally, run the test suite, and contribute changes with the current project workflow.
- [Installation](https://docs.bridge.ls/getting-started/installation.md): Install Bridge from a release, Homebrew, or source, then set up shell completions and verify your CLI environment.
- [Quickstart](https://docs.bridge.ls/getting-started/quickstart.md): Install Bridge, connect your first provider, and read structured context in a few minutes.
- [Generate an MCP server](https://docs.bridge.ls/guides/mcp-generate.md): Use bridge generate mcp to produce a bridge.mcp/v1 manifest from an OpenAPI spec, a Postgres database, or a SQLite database.
