Latex Mcp

Overview

Latex Mcp is a Model Context Protocol server that lets AI agents compile TeX files using LaTeX inside a Docker container. It integrates directly with Claude, Cursor, VS Code, and other MCP clients, exposing LaTeX compilation as a tool the model can invoke automatically on your behalf.

The server runs locally on your machine via the Python package latex-mcp, installed with uvx latex-mcp. It communicates over stdio and requires no authentication or credentials to get started. The latest release is v0.1.3 under the AGPL-3.0 license, with source code available at SepineTam/latex-mcp on GitHub.

Latex Mcp appears in the AI & Agents category on mcp.site and works with MCP clients including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, and others. If you maintain this project, claim your listing to verify ownership and keep the information up to date.
