Context Cost
This is the approximate number of tokens consumed each time the server's tools are loaded into a model's context. Higher counts reduce the attention available for other tasks.

Tool inventory
Tools (5)
🟢list_formats
List every file format this converter reads or writes (id, name, extensions, family). Use the id values as `from`/`to` in other tools.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {},
"additionalProperties": false
}🟢check_conversion(from, to)
Check whether one format can be converted to another before sending a file. Returns the engine, whether AI Deep Read is needed, the options it accepts, and alternatives when the pair is not supported. Formats accept ids (docx), extensions (jpeg) or common names (word, excel).
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"from": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Source format, e.g. pdf"
},
"to": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Target format, e.g. docx"
}
},
"required": [
"from",
"to"
],
"additionalProperties": false
}🟢list_conversions(from, to)
List supported target formats for a source format (or every source that can produce a target). Returns compact {from,to,slug,engine,mode} rows.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"from": {
"type": "string"
},
"to": {
"type": "string"
}
},
"additionalProperties": false
}🟡convert_file(filename, base64, url, from, to, ...)
Convert a file. Provide the content as base64 OR a public https URL. `from` is optional when the filename/URL has an extension. Text outputs (Markdown, CSV, JSON, HTML…) up to 200 KB are returned inline as `text`; other outputs are returned as `base64` plus a `downloadUrl` that accepts the same bearer token. Max 10 MB per file. Set `deepRead: true` to read scans, photos and handwriting with AI Deep Read (1 credit per page).
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"filename": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Original filename with extension, e.g. report.pdf"
},
"base64": {
"type": "string",
"description": "File bytes, base64-encoded"
},
"url": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Public https URL of the file (alternative to base64)"
},
"from": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Source format id; detected from the filename when omitted"
},
"to": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Target format id, e.g. md, docx, xlsx, png"
},
"options": {
"type": "object",
"description": "Engine options from check_conversion (delimiter, sheet, quality, …)"
},
"deepRead": {
"type": "boolean",
"description": "Use AI Deep Read (OCR + layout understanding) for PDFs and images"
}
},
"required": [
"to"
],
"additionalProperties": false
}🟢get_conversion(id)
Fetch a previous conversion by id: status, warnings, and the output (inline text or base64) if it is still retained.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"id": {
"type": "string"
}
