Features

- Full MCP protocol implementation
- Word document creation and management
- Rich text content manipulation
- Table creation and formatting

Installation

npx @puchunjie/doc-tools-mcp

Or install globally:

npm install -g @puchunjie/doc-tools-mcp

For use as a dependency in your project:

npm install @puchunjie/doc-tools-mcp

Usage

1. Start the MCP server:

npx @puchunjie/doc-tools-mcp

2. The server will start on port 8765 by default

3. Configure your AI application (e.g., Cursor, VSCode) to use the MCP server:

   http://localhost:8765

   

MCP Tools

The server provides the following MCP functions:

- create_document - Create a new Word document
- Parameters: filePath (required), title, author

- open_document - Open an existing Word document
- Parameters: filePath (required)

- add_paragraph - Add a paragraph to the document
- Parameters: filePath (required), text (required), style, alignment

- add_table - Add a table to the document

Integration with AI Applications

Cursor

1. Open the Cursor configuration file ~/.cursor/mcp.json
2. Add the following configuration:

{

  "mcpServers": {

    "doc-tools-mcp": {

      "command": "npx",

      "args": [

        "@puchunjie/doc-tools-mcp"

      ]

    }

  }

}

Or for local development version:

{

  "mcpServers": {

    "doc-tools-mcp": {

      "command": "node",

      "args": [

        "/path/to/your/doc-tools-mcp/dist/mcp-server.js"

      ]

    }

  }

}

After configuration, you can use natural language to manipulate Word documents:

"Create a new document named report.docx"

"Add a heading 'Monthly Report' to report.docx"

"Insert a 4x3 table with sales data"

VSCode and Other MCP-Compatible Tools

Similar integration steps apply to other tools that support the MCP protocol. Consult your tool's documentation for specific MCP server configuration steps.
