agentmd-mcp

MCP server for AgentMD — convert PDF, DOCX, HTML, and URLs into clean, LLM-ready markdown, with tables preserved and web-page boilerplate stripped.

Agents ingest documents constantly, and most document formats are hostile to language models. This gives your agent three tools that turn any of them into markdown it can actually read.

Install

Get a free API key (50 conversions, no card) at https://www.getagentmd.com — or fully programmatically:

curl -X POST https://www.getagentmd.com/api/v1/keys/free \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"email": "you@example.com"}'

Then:

Claude Code

claude mcp add agentmd --env AGENTMD_API_KEY=<your-key> -- npx -y agentmd-mcp

Any MCP client (mcp.json / claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "agentmd": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "agentmd-mcp"],
      "env": { "AGENTMD_API_KEY": "<your-key>" }
    }
  }
}

Docker

docker build -t agentmd-mcp .
docker run -i --rm -e AGENTMD_API_KEY=<your-key> agentmd-mcp

The image runs the stdio server, so pass -i; the API key is supplied at run time with -e rather than baked into the image. To wire the container into an MCP client:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "agentmd": {
      "command": "docker",
      "args": ["run", "-i", "--rm", "-e", "AGENTMD_API_KEY", "agentmd-mcp"],
      "env": { "AGENTMD_API_KEY": "<your-key>" }
    }
  }
}

Remote (no install) — the hosted server speaks streamable HTTP directly:

claude mcp add --transport http agentmd https://www.getagentmd.com/api/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer <your-key>"

Tools

ToolUse it for
convert_url_to_markdownA web page or a document at an http(s) URL
convert_file_to_markdownA document on the local filesystem, by path
convert_document_to_markdownDocument bytes you already hold, as base64

All three return markdown, prefixed with the detected title and any warnings.

Supported formats

  • PDF — text extraction (scanned/image-only PDFs return a warning; OCR is on the roadmap)
  • DOCX — headings, lists, and tables preserved
  • HTML / URLs — main-article extraction, GFM tables, links resolved to absolute URLs
  • Markdown / plain text — normalized passthrough

Limit: 25 MB per document.

Pricing

First 50 conversions free (per email, no card). After that, $0.002 per successful conversion, billed monthly. No per-seat licensing — you pay for calls your agents actually make.

License

MIT (this client shim). The hosted service has its own terms.
