A lightweight MCP server that exposes PDF and EPUB documents for use by MCP-compatible agents and IDEs.

Example Use Cases

1
Load, search, and read the contents of local PDF and EPUB documents via the Model Context Protocol.
2
An MCP-compatible document server to integrate with IDEs or tools that only support MCP tools (for example, Windsurf IDE).
3
A simple local service to expose document context to conversational agents or document-analysis workflows during development.

Description

This repository provides a rudimentary MCP server for interacting with PDF and EPUB files, letting agents query and consume document content via the Model Context Protocol. It's designed to run locally (via Poetry or an installed script) and integrate with MCP-only environments such as the Windsurf IDE. The tool is simple to configure and intended for development and local document-serving use cases.
