Overview

AI-generated overview

A remote MCP server with one tool that deterministically cleans pasted text — PDF, Markdown, citation, spacing and invisible-character artifacts — without…

What you can do
  • Clean supplied text deterministically, removing artifacts from copied PDF text, Markdown or HTML, citations, spacing and destination formatting.
  • Preserve supported document structure unless a selected cleaning option changes it.
  • It does not perform OCR, accept file uploads, correct grammar, or detect AI authorship.
When to use it
Useful when an assistant works with text pasted from PDFs, web pages or Markdown and needs the stray characters, spacing and formatting tidied before reuse, without any rewriting of the content.
Requirements
A remote streamable HTTP endpoint at textclean.org; no packages, environment variables, headers or authentication are declared.
Before you install
The text you send is processed by a third-party remote service, so avoid submitting confidential or personal content. It only cleans text; it does not upload files or perform OCR.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open TextClean MCP in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. 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/org.textclean%2Ftextclean/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

Text cleanup and destination formatting

Clean supplied text deterministically without rewriting its meaning. Use for copied PDF text, Markdown/HTML artifacts, citations, spacing, or destination formatting; not OCR, file uploads, grammar correction, or AI-authorship detection. Preserves supported document structure unless a selected cleanup removes it. Returns cleanedText, destination-rendered text, optional html, a changes list, and usage counters as structured JSON and matching JSON text. No API key required. 20 calls per UTC day per network address; shared networks share this allowance. Service-wide load protection can return HTTP 429; honor Retry-After. Maximum 20000 UTF-16 code units per call. Accepted processing attempts consume quota, including repeats. Input and results are processed remotely in memory, not stored or logged; only quota metadata is retained. Validation and quota failures return errors. Example: {"text":"A split para-\ngraph.","preset":"pdf","destination":"email"}.

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.
