Pdf

Overview

Pdf is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server: Merge, split, compress, unlock, reorganize PDFs — and check whether redactions really removed text. As an MCP server it plugs straight into AI assistants, exposing its functionality as tools the model can invoke on your behalf.

It runs locally: the npm package yaktool-pdf-mcp speaks MCP over stdio on your machine. No credentials are required — it works out of the box. The current release is v0.5.0.

You'll find Pdf in the File System category here on mcp.site; it connects to Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, and any other MCP client — see the install snippets below.
