# MCP Enabled PDF Reader Model Context Protocol (MCP) server exposes a tool called read_pdf to read a single pdf document. This has been tested on Claude Desktop and LibreChat with Ollama. Although there is no maximum size to the pdf file that can be read, the number of tokens passed to the model will be the limiting factor. ## Installation ### Prerequisites #### Windows 1. Install Claude Desktop (or another MCP-enabled AI tool) - Download [Claude for Desktop](https://claude.ai/download) - Follow the current installation instructions: [Installing Claude Desktop](https://support.anthropic.com/en/articles/10065433-installing-claude-for-desktop) 2. Install Python 3.10 or higher: - Download the latest Python installer from [python.org](https://python.org) - Run the installer, checking "Add Python to PATH" - Open Command Prompt and verify installation with `python --version` 3. Install uv: - Open Command Prompt as Administrator - Run `pip install --user uv` - Verify installation with `uv --version` #### macOS 1. Install Claude Desktop (or another MCP-enabled AI tool) - Download [Claude for Desktop](https://claude.ai/download) - Follow the current installation instructions: [Installing Claude Desktop](https://support.anthropic.com/en/articles/10065433-installing-claude-for-desktop) 2. Install Python 3.10 or higher: - Using Homebrew: `brew install python` - Verify installation with `python3 --version` 3. Install uv: - Using Homebrew: `brew install uv` - Alternatively: `pip3 install --user uv` - Verify installation with `uv --version` ## Configuration Add the following to your `claude_desktop_config.json`: ```json { "mcpServers": { "mcp-pdf-reader": { "command": "uvx", "args": [ "--from", "git+https://github.com/Safe-Swiss-Cloud-AG/mcp_pdf_reader@main", "mcp_pdf_reader" ] } } } ``` ## Attribution This software package implements the ability to read a pdf file into a MCP enabled framework and is developed by [Safe Swiss Cloud](https://safeswisscloud.com). ## Contributing We welcome contributions to improve these tools.
