FAQ from MarkItDown-MCP-NPX

Does this require Docker?

No. MarkItDown-MCP-NPX is designed to run without Docker; it only needs Node.js 16+ and Python 3.10+.

What are the prerequisites?

Node.js 16+, Python 3.10+, and an internet connection for initial package download. FFmpeg and ExifTool are optional for audio and advanced image metadata.

How do I fix a hanging server on startup?

Use the -y flag with NPX (npx -y markitdown-mcp-npx) to skip installation prompts that can hang in non-interactive environments like Claude Desktop.

What transport modes are supported?

STDIO (default) and HTTP/SSE. Use --http --host <host> --port <port> for HTTP mode.

Is there authentication for HTTP mode?

No authentication is provided; the README recommends binding to localhost unless otherwise needed.
