Free markdown sharing. Upload, get links, collaborate. No login needed.
Overview
A local MCP server that lets an assistant upload markdown files from disk to the free mdshare service and get back shareable links.
- What you can do
- Upload markdown files from disk to mdshare and receive an admin URL for the document, without passing file contents through the conversation. Share the returned link or generate links with different permission levels (admin, edit, comment, view). Manage document links, including revoking them or setting expiry, through the underlying service. Works alongside the same service's web editor, VS Code, Obsidian and Claude Code plugins.
- When to use it
- Useful when you want an assistant to publish a local markdown file quickly and hand back a link for others to read, comment on or edit, without setting up an account or hosting.
- Requirements
- Runs as a local process via npx mdshare-mcp, so Node.js and network access are needed. No login, API key, environment variable or header is declared. Desktop only.
Installation
In SourceWeft
- Open Mdshare in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
- 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.
Other MCP clients
Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

MCP Server
Say "upload my-notes.md to mdshare" in any MCP-compatible AI tool. The MCP server reads files directly from disk (no echoing through the conversation), so it's fast even for large markdown files. Setup guide
Claude Code Plugin
Wraps the MCP server above with a single skill — Claude reaches for it on phrases like "share this markdown". Setup guide · source
Cursor Plugin
Listed on Cursor Directory — click "Add to Cursor" on the listing page. Same MCP server, same skill as the Claude Code plugin. Source
Obsidian Plugin
Listed in the Obsidian Community Plugins directory — install via Settings → Community Plugins → Browse → search "mdshare". Right-click any .md file in your vault to share it; admin URL is copied to your clipboard. Source

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
