Quality & Safety
Based on automated analysis of tool definitions and protocol compliance.
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 (15)
🟢pdf_info(path)
Call this tool to inspect a PDF: page count, page sizes in points/mm, paper name, metadata (title, author, producer, dates) and whether it is encrypted. Read-only, never modifies the file. Free tier: unlimited.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"path": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Name of a PDF uploaded with pdf_upload, or one this server wrote earlier"
}
},
"required": [
"path"
],
"additionalProperties": false,
"$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#"
}🟢pdf_count(paths)
Page count per file plus the total, for any number of PDFs, with how many were readable. A file that cannot be read is reported on its own row and the others still count. Read-only. Free and unlimited.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"paths": {
"type": "array",
"items": {
"type": "string"

},
"required": [
"paths"
],
"additionalProperties": false,
"$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#"
}⚪pdf_merge(paths, out_path, overwrite)
Call this tool to join several PDFs into one, in the order given. Page sizes are kept as-is, so a merged file may have mixed sizes, and the answer says so. Inputs are never modified. Free tier: up to 5 files per merge.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"paths": {
"type": "array",
"items": {
"type": "string"

"type": "string",
"description": "Name for the merged PDF; it comes back as a download link valid for one hour"

}
},
"required": [
"paths",
"out_path"
],
"additionalProperties": false,
"$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#"
}🟡pdf_split(path, ranges, out_path_pattern, overwrite)
Call this tool to write one new PDF per range. Ranges are 1-based and may be open-ended: "1-3,5,7-" gives pages 1-3, page 5, and 7 to the end. The input is never modified. Free tier: files up to 30 pages.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"path": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Name of the uploaded PDF to split"
},
"ranges": {

"$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#"
}⚪pdf_pages(path, pages, out_path, overwrite)
Call this tool to pull selected pages into one new PDF, in the order written: "2,4-6" gives four pages. Asking for a page twice copies it twice. The input is never modified. Free tier: files up to 30 pages.

}⚪pdf_rotate(path, degrees, pages, out_path, overwrite)
Call this tool to turn pages by a multiple of 90 degrees, clockwise for positive. Rotation is added to whatever the page already had, for a sideways scan. Writes a new file. Free tier: files up to 30 pages.

}⚪pdf_stamp(path, text, position, opacity, color, ...)
Call this tool to draw a word such as PAID or DRAFT across the pages, in a colour and position you choose. Writes a new file; input untouched. Free tier: the PAID and DRAFT presets in their preset colours.

}🟡pdf_watermark_business(path, out_path, overwrite, pages)
Call this tool to put your business name and VAT id in the footer of every page, from the shared profile mcp-invoice and mcp-docx write. Use it before sending a document out. Pro.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {

"additionalProperties": false,
"$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#"
}🟡pdf_reorder(path, order, out_path, overwrite)
Call this tool to write a new PDF with pages in the order you give. The order must name every page exactly once, so nothing drops by accident; use pdf_pages for a subset. Pro.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"path": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Name of an uploaded PDF (pdf_upload), or one this server wrote earlier"

}🟢pdf_text(path, pages)
Call this tool for best-effort text extraction from standard-font PDFs. Returns nothing for a scan (no OCR), or glyph indices for a custom-encoded font, and says which case applies. Read-only. Free tier: unlimited.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"path": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Name of the PDF to read"
},
"pages": {
"type": "string",

"additionalProperties": false,
"$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#"
}🟢license_status
Report this endpoint's licence state for your token as JSON: the product, the tier free or pro, why it is not Pro, and the checkout URL. Call it to explain a free-tier refusal. No arguments, nothing changes.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {},
"$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#"
}⚪license_activate(key)
Turn Pro on for this connection with key, an MCPL1.<payload>.<signature> issued at checkout for this server or the bundle. Data under your token stays; a wrong or expired key changes nothing. license_status confirms it.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"key": {
"type": "string",
"description": "License key from checkout, MCPL1.<payload>.<signature>"
}

"additionalProperties": false,
"$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#"
}🔴pdf_upload(name, pdf_base64, url)
Send a PDF to this hosted endpoint. There is no filesystem here, so instead of a path you upload the file once with pdf_upload and then pass its name as `path` (or inside `paths`) to pdf_info, pdf_count, pdf_merge, pdf_split, pdf_pages, pdf_rotate, pdf_stamp, pdf_reorder and pdf_text. Give exactly one of pdf_base64 or url. url: fetch a public file instead of pasting base64 (recommended above about 10 KB): pasting a large base64 payload is slow to write out and can stall the turn before the call is ever sent, while a url costs one line and the fetch happens here. Uploads are kept for your token between calls; pdf_files lists them and pdf_delete_upload removes one. A file this server writes is named the same way and comes back as a download link valid for one hour. The request body cap is 256 KB, which is about 190 KB of PDF once base64-encoded; a url is fetched with a 10 second timeout, at most 3 redirects, public http(s) hosts only, and is capped at 2 MB.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"name": {
"type": "string",
"minLength": 1,
"maxLength": 70,
"description": "Name to refer to this PDF by: 1-64 characters of letters, digits, underscore or dash, e.g. \"invoice\""
},
"pdf_base64": {
"type": "string",
"description": "The PDF file, base64-encoded"
},
"url": {
"type": "string",
"description": "url: fetch a public file instead of pasting base64 (recommended above about 10 KB). Public http(s) only; private, link-local and this endpoint's own zone are refused"
}
},
"required": [
"name"
],
"additionalProperties": false,
"$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#"
}🟢pdf_files
List the PDFs stored for your token: what you uploaded, and what this server has written, with their sizes.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {},
"$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#"
}🔴pdf_delete_upload(name)
Delete one PDF stored for your token, uploaded or generated.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"name": {
"type": "string",
"minLength": 1,
"maxLength": 70
}
