### Description (declared)

# mcp-docgen 
 
A Markdown-driven [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) (MCP) server 
to **create, read, edit and convert** **Word (`.docx`)**, **Excel (`.xlsx`)**, 
**PowerPoint (`.pptx`)**, **PDF** and **HTML** documents. 
 
Built entirely on mature, permissively-licensed Python libraries 
([`python-docx`](https://github.com/python-openxml/python-docx), 
[`python-pptx`](https://github.com/scanny/python-pptx), 
[`openpyxl`](https://foss.heptapod.net/openpyxl/openpyxl), 
[`reportlab`](https://pypi.org/project/reportlab/), 
[`pypdf`](https://github.com/py-pdf/pypdf), 
[`markdown-it-py`](https://github.com/executablebooks/markdown-it-py), 
[`markdownify`](https://github.com/matthewwithanm/python-markdownify), 
[`beautifulsoup4`](https://www.crummy.com/software/BeautifulSoup/)) — no proprietary 
dependencies. **MIT licensed.** 
 
> Part of the **Touka** project: giving AI agents the ability to produce, read and edit 
> real Office documents using only open-source building blocks. 
 
## Why 
 
LLMs are great at producing Markdown. `mcp-docgen` converts Markdown to polished Office 
documents — and reads them back to Markdown — so an MCP-capable assistant (Claude Desktop, 
Touka, …) can run a full **read → edit → write** loop on real `.docx` / `.xlsx` / `.pptx` 
/ `.pdf` / `.html` files, and **convert** between any of them. 
 
## Install & run 
 
```bash 
uvx mcp-docgen          # once published to PyPI 
# or, from a local checkout: 
uv sync && uv run mcp-docgen 
``` 
 
The server speaks MCP over **stdio**. 
 
## MCP client configuration 
 
```jsonc 
{ 
  "mcpServers": { 
    "docgen": { 
      "command": "uvx", 
      "args": ["mcp-docgen"], 
      "env": { "MCP_DOCGEN_OUTPUT_DIR": "/absolute/path/to/workdir" } 
    } 
  } 
} 
``` 
 
From a local checkout, swap the command for: 
 
```jsonc 
{ "command": "uv", "args": ["run", "--directory", "/path/to/mcp-docgen", "mcp-docgen"] } 
```
