Overview

AI-generated overview

Apify-hosted remote MCP server that converts PDFs and other documents into clean Markdown, with OCR and chunking for LLM and RAG use.

What you can do
  • Convert PDF, Word, PowerPoint, Excel, HTML and EPUB files into clean Markdown, including tables and two-column layouts
  • Run OCR on scanned documents and images in multiple languages
  • Split output into chunks sized for LLM and RAG pipelines
  • Accept documents by URL, with options for page range, output format, password-protected PDFs and table JSON
When to use it
Useful when you want an assistant to turn reports, papers, slide decks or spreadsheets into Markdown text it can read, quote or index, especially for building retrieval corpora from scanned or multi-column documents.
Requirements
Remote streamable HTTP endpoint at mcp.apify.com, added with the tool path for this actor. Requires an Apify account and an Apify API token sent as an Authorization Bearer header. Documents are supplied as URLs, so they must be reachable over the network.
Before you install
Usage is billed per document and per page, so costs grow with volume; check current pricing before bulk runs. The Apify API token is a paid-account credential and should be kept private. Documents are sent to Apify's hosted service for processing, so avoid confidential files unless that is acceptable. Password-protected PDFs require supplying the document password.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open PDF & Document to Markdown in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Connect the required credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
  3. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/io.github.prometheus-maker%2Fpdf-to-markdown/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config. The client completes OAuth sign-in on first connect.

README

Apify tools: PDF to Markdown, OCR, Website to Markdown crawler, SEO audit, Tech Stack

Working examples for my pay-per-use tools on the Apify Store. Each one is an API: send URLs, get JSON back. You only pay for what you process, and there's no subscription.

Quick start (curl)

Get an API token from Apify Console → Integrations, then:

bash
curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/prometheus-maker~website-tech-stack-detector/run-sync-get-dataset-items" \  -H "Authorization: Bearer $APIFY_TOKEN" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \  -d '{"urls": ["python.org"]}'

The same endpoint works for the other tools: replace the tool name and the input.

Use them from Claude, Cursor or any MCP client

Every tool is also an MCP server, hosted by Apify (streamable HTTP). Add one to your client with your Apify token:

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "pdf-to-markdown": {      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=prometheus-maker/pdf-document-to-markdown",      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" }    }  }}

Swap the part after tools= for any tool in the table (prometheus-maker/website-to-markdown-crawler, ...), or list several separated by commas. The same entries are in the official MCP Registry under io.github.prometheus-maker/* (files in mcp/). You pay per use, as with the API.

Python

bash
pip install apify-clientexport APIFY_TOKEN=...python python/pdf_to_markdown.py      # PDF → Markdown + RAG chunkspython python/image_to_text_ocr.py    # image → textpython python/tech_stack.py           # domains → technologiespython python/website_to_markdown.py  # website → Markdown pages + chunkspython python/seo_audit.py            # website → SEO scores, issues, broken links

The scripts are in python/. They use apify-client 3.x.
