docs: Added AI Integration section to use parse-mcp to help AI Agents interact with Parse

[R3D347HR4Y]

Issue

#9948

Approach

Mainly a README and doc update to recommend the use of the newly implemented MCP Server with Parse Server
Also a AI_INTEGRATION.md which will catch LLM's attention when crawling the repo and will direct them towards it

Tasks

• Add changes to documentation (guides, repository pages, code comments)

Learning: When reviewing Parse Server PRs that add new features, always check whether the feature is documented in the README.md file, though for new Parse Server options this is optional rather than required.

Learning: For Parse Server PRs, always suggest an Angular commit convention PR title that would make a meaningful changelog entry for developers. Update the PR title suggestion on every commit. The format should be: type(scope): description. Common types include feat, fix, perf, refactor, docs, test, chore. The scope should identify the subsystem (e.g., graphql, rest, push, security). The description should be action-oriented and clearly convey the change's impact to developers.

🔇 Additional comments (3)

CONTRIBUTING.md (1)

188-188: LGTM!

The addition of Parse MCP Server to recommended tools is appropriate and the reference to AI_INTEGRATION.md is well-placed. The link will help developers discover the setup guide.

AI_INTEGRATION.md (1)

1-139: Comprehensive and well-structured documentation.

The AI_INTEGRATION.md file provides excellent coverage of Parse MCP Server capabilities, installation, configuration, and usage. The content is clear, actionable, and appropriately pitched for both human developers and AI agents crawling the repository. The "For AI Agents" section with the recommended workflow is particularly well-thought-out and aligns with the PR objective of guiding LLMs toward using parse-mcp.

README.md (1)

92-92: Well-integrated AI Integration section with clear positioning.

The new AI Integration section is properly positioned in the README's table of contents and provides concise, actionable information for developers interested in AI-assisted development with Parse Server. The section follows Parse Server's documentation style and provides a logical bridge to the comprehensive AI_INTEGRATION.md guide. The Quick Start Docker example is particularly helpful for immediate setup.

We can offer to add your GitHub repository to our curated list of community-projects, if you provide the link and pending review. The documentation you are trying to merge with this PR is related to your product and should be made available in your respective repository. I'm therefore going ahead and closing the PR.

[R3D347HR4Y]

Here is the repo https://github.com/R3D347HR4Y/parse-mcp
How do I submit it?
Also yes, I agree the AI_INTEGRATION file can be discarded though a CLAUDE.md or llms.txt file should be added in general to the repo to help AIs build with Parse Server
