The default settings of Safari on macOS prevents opening links in mcdoc/mxdoc "search" pages.

As an example, run the following command in a terminal:
mcdoc Incoherent

This will open a html file located in the current directory - but the links to component html, component code etc. are not clickable.

Workaround 1:
Right (ctrl+) click and select open should bring you to then needed documentation resource

Workaround 2:

Enable "Developer settings" in Safari (under Preferences/Advanced: "Show features for web developers")
In Developer settings (Preferences/Developer: "Disable local file restrictions")

Solution to be implemented
It seems such search-oriented files should be stored in a temporary directory e.g. /tmp on Unix
