@paperjsx/mcp-server
Enables AI agents to generate a variety of documents (PPTX presentations, DOCX reports, PDF invoices, XLSX spreadsheets) locally from JSON specs, without any API keys or network calls.
README
@paperjsx/mcp-server
Local MCP server that gives AI agents a dozen document-generation tools — PPTX presentations, DOCX reports and contracts, PDF invoices and charts, XLSX spreadsheets — by wrapping the free-tier @paperjsx/json-to-* packages. Runs in-process, no API key, no network calls.
npx -y @paperjsx/mcp-server
Requires Node.js >=18.
What It Does
Registers MCP tools so any MCP-capable client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code Copilot, Windsurf, Cline, Gemini CLI, Claude.ai custom connectors) can ask an agent to actually produce a document from a JSON spec.
Everything runs locally via:
@paperjsx/json-to-pptx— PPTX presentations@paperjsx/json-to-docx— DOCX reports, invoices, contracts@paperjsx/json-to-xlsx— XLSX spreadsheets with native charts@paperjsx/json-to-pdf— PDF invoices, reports, chart documents
There is no cloud backend, no account, no API key to set. The server writes generated files to disk and returns the absolute path so the client can attach it or surface it in-line.
Tool Catalog
| Tool | Format | Use case |
|---|---|---|
generate_presentation |
PPTX | Decks from a JSON slide spec (title / content / chart / comparison / stats) |
generate_invoice |
Invoices with sender, recipient, line-items, totals | |
generate_report |
Markdown-driven PDF reports with cover page + TOC | |
generate_chart_document |
Multi-chart documents with insights + optional data table | |
generate_report_docx |
DOCX | Word reports with sections, headers, page numbers |
generate_contract_docx |
DOCX | Structured contracts with clause numbering |
generate_invoice_docx |
DOCX | Word invoices |
generate_spreadsheet |
XLSX | Multi-sheet workbooks, formulas, native charts |
validate_spreadsheet |
— | Validate an .xlsx against the Zod schema |
repair_spreadsheet |
XLSX | Repair a corrupted workbook |
list_templates |
— | Discover reusable JSON templates (name / formats / sample data) |
list_components |
— | Document layout primitives shared across formats |
batch_generate |
— | Run several generation jobs in one call |
remediate_accessibility |
— | Apply conservative accessibility fixes to a JSON spec |
Every tool exposes a JSON Schema (derived from its Zod definition) so the agent sees accurate parameter hints and example inputs.

Claude Desktop
claude_desktop_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"paperjsx": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@paperjsx/mcp-server"]
}
}
}
Cursor
.cursor/mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"paperjsx": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@paperjsx/mcp-server"]
}
}
}
VS Code Copilot
.vscode/mcp.json:
{
"servers": {
"paperjsx": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@paperjsx/mcp-server"]
}
}
}
Windsurf / Cline / Gemini CLI
Use the same mcpServers block as Claude Desktop — the Windsurf, Cline, and Gemini config files all accept it.
Example Agent Prompts
Once configured, just ask:
"Generate an invoice for Acme Corp: 1 × Enterprise Workspace at $12,000, 1 × onboarding package at $2,400, 8.875% tax."
"Build a 5-slide quarterly review deck: Q1 revenue $5.1M (+34% YoY), top-3 wins, biggest risk, next-quarter goals."
"Read
tasks.jsonand produce an XLSX report grouped by assignee, with a pivot-style total row per person."
The agent picks the right tool, fills in the schema, and the server returns the file path.
Artifact Management
Generated files are written to PAPERJSX_OUTPUT_DIR (defaults to OS temp). On every server start, artifacts older than PAPERJSX_ARTIFACT_TTL_HOURS are cleaned up. Each tool response includes the absolute path so clients can surface it or attach it as a resource.
Security
- SSRF protection — remote URLs (image fetches, template references) pass through an allowlist that blocks RFC 1918 / 4193 ranges, cloud metadata endpoints (AWS / GCP / Azure), and localhost variants.
- HTML escaping — every tool that emits markup escapes user input (
& < > " ') before templating. - Zod validation — every tool input is validated before an engine is invoked. Schema errors are returned as structured JSON-RPC errors with field paths.
Error Handling
Tool errors are returned as structured MCP responses. Input validation errors include the failing field path (e.g. items[0].unitPrice: expected number, received string).
Running the Binary Directly
npx -y @paperjsx/mcp-server
The binary speaks MCP over stdio — use any MCP client to connect. No HTTP port is opened.
