GroupDocs.Conversion MCP Server

MCP server that exposes GroupDocs.Conversion as AI-callable tools for Claude, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and other MCP agents.

Installation

Requires .NET 10 SDK.

Run directly with dnx (recommended — no install step):

dnx GroupDocs.Conversion.Mcp --yes

Pulls the latest stable release on every invocation. To pin to a specific version (recommended for shared configs and CI), append @<version>:

dnx GroupDocs.Conversion.Mcp@26.5.2 --yes

Or install as a global dotnet tool:

dotnet tool install -g GroupDocs.Conversion.Mcp
groupdocs-conversion-mcp

Or run via Docker:

docker run --rm -i \
  -v $(pwd)/documents:/data \
  ghcr.io/groupdocs-conversion/conversion-net-mcp:latest

Available MCP Tools

Tool Description
Convert Converts a document to a different format (PDF, DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, HTML, PNG, JPG, and 70+ more) and saves the result to storage
GetSupportedFormats Lists every target format the source document can be converted to, with primary/secondary indicators
GetDocumentInfo Returns file type, page count, and basic properties (author, title, dates, password-protected) for a source document

Configuration

Variable Description Default
GROUPDOCS_MCP_STORAGE_PATH Base folder for input and output files current directory
GROUPDOCS_MCP_OUTPUT_PATH (Optional) separate folder for output files GROUPDOCS_MCP_STORAGE_PATH
GROUPDOCS_LICENSE_PATH Path to GroupDocs license file (evaluation mode)

Usage with Claude Desktop

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "groupdocs-conversion": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "dnx",
      "args": ["GroupDocs.Conversion.Mcp", "--yes"],
      "env": {
        "GROUPDOCS_MCP_STORAGE_PATH": "/path/to/documents"
      }
    }
  }
}

To pin to a specific version, replace "GroupDocs.Conversion.Mcp" with "GroupDocs.Conversion.Mcp@26.5.2" in args. Pinning is recommended for shared / committed configs to avoid surprise upgrades.

Usage with VS Code / GitHub Copilot

NuGet.org generates a ready-to-use mcp.json snippet on the package page. Copy it directly into your .vscode/mcp.json.

Alternatively, add manually to .vscode/mcp.json:

{
  "inputs": [
    {
      "type": "promptString",
      "id": "storage_path",
      "description": "Base folder for input and output files.",
      "password": false
    }
  ],
  "servers": {
    "groupdocs-conversion": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "dnx",
      "args": ["GroupDocs.Conversion.Mcp", "--yes"],
      "env": {
        "GROUPDOCS_MCP_STORAGE_PATH": "${input:storage_path}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Same pinning rule as above — swap "GroupDocs.Conversion.Mcp" for "GroupDocs.Conversion.Mcp@26.5.2" to lock to a specific release.

Usage with Docker Compose

cd docker
docker compose up

Edit docker/docker-compose.yml to point volumes at your local documents folder.

Documentation & guides

Step-by-step deployment guides and a published-package integration test suite live in the companion repo GroupDocs.Conversion.Mcp.Tests:

That repo also exercises every advertised tool against the published NuGet artifact on Linux, macOS, and Windows in CI — so the snippets above are verified end-to-end on every release.
