Convert PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, EPUB, HEIC & images — 35+ tools from convertica.net
Overview
A local MCP server that lets an assistant run Convertica's 35+ document and image conversions, such as PDF to Word, PDF merging and HEIC to JPG.
- What you can do
- List available converters with their file fields and options, to find the right converter slug first. Run a chosen converter on local files, with tool-specific options and an optional output directory. Convert between PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, JPG, HTML, Markdown, Text and EPUB, and to PDF/A. Merge, split, compress, rotate, crop, watermark, sign, protect or unlock PDFs. Convert, optimize and turn HEIC images into JPG, PNG or PDF, and render a URL as a PDF.
- When to use it
- Useful when you want document or image format conversions done from inside the assistant without opening a separate web tool, for example turning a downloaded PDF into Word, combining several PDFs, or converting phone photos.
- Requirements
- Runs locally via npx from the npm package convertica-mcp (Node.js needed). Requires a Convertica API key in the CONVERTICA_API_KEY environment variable, obtained from a paid Convertica subscription. Network access is needed because conversions run over HTTPS.
Installation
In SourceWeft
- Open Convertica 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 tools
The server exposes two tools.
list_converters
Lists all 35+ Convertica converters with their file fields and options. Call this first to find the right tool slug for convert_file. Takes no input.
convert_file
Runs one of convertica.net's 35+ conversion tools on local file(s) and saves the result next to the input (or into output_dir). Requires authentication via the CONVERTICA_API_KEY env var.
Supported conversions include: PDF ⇄ Word / Excel / PowerPoint / JPG / HTML / Markdown / Text / EPUB, PDF → PDF/A, HTML / URL → PDF, merge / split / compress / rotate / crop / watermark / sign / protect / unlock PDF, image convert / optimize / HEIC → JPG·PNG·PDF, and more. Full list via list_converters or at convertica.net.

Usage notes
- Files are read from and written to your local disk; results are saved next to the input file unless you pass
output_dir. - Conversions run synchronously over HTTPS; processed files are deleted from Convertica's servers right after the response (details).
- API calls are metered against your plan's monthly quota; failed calls are not counted.

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.

Keep the endpoint answering the MCP handshake; SourceWeft probes it every 30 days.
- Auth declared10 pts
Declare the credential headers in the registry entry, or keep the endpoint answering the probe so its auth can be classified.
