Overview

What is mcp-docs-reader?

mcp-docs-reader is a lightweight MCP server that loads PDF files from a local folder, extracts and chunks their content, builds a semantic search index, and sends relevant passages to Claude Desktop for document-based question answering. It is intended for use with Claude’s MCP desktop feature.

How to use mcp-docs-reader?

Download or clone the project, set up the uv virtual environment (manually or via setup.bat), and install dependencies.

Launch Claude Desktop; it will automatically connect to the MCP tool.
