VerifiedSTDIODesktop onlyFiles & Storage

Overview

AI-generated overview

ExactPDF is a local stdio MCP server that lets an assistant run hosted PDF workflows such as merging, splitting, compressing and building Markdown source packs.

What you can do
Merge and split PDF files through the hosted ExactPDF API service, as described in the registry entry for this server. Compress PDF documents using the same hosted processing. Produce Markdown source packs from PDFs. Start the local server without a key to get setup guidance, then add the key for hosted PDF workflows.
When to use it
Use it when you want an assistant to combine, divide, shrink or convert PDF documents and you are comfortable sending those files to a hosted third-party API. It is not needed if you only work with PDFs locally or offline.
Requirements
Runs as a local process on the user's machine, installed from the npm package and started over stdio; desktop only, not web-executable. The EXACTPDF_API_KEY environment variable is optional for starting the server and getting setup guidance, but required for the hosted PDF workflows. Network access to the hosted ExactPDF API is implied.
Before you install
PDF content is sent to the hosted ExactPDF API for processing, so avoid confidential or regulated documents unless that is acceptable. The EXACTPDF_API_KEY secret is needed for the hosted workflows and should be kept out of shared configuration. The server can create or overwrite output files when merging, splitting or compressing, so check where results are written.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open ExactPDF in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.
