An MCP server that exposes GroupDocs.Viewer as AI-callable tools for inspecting documents and rendering document pages as PNG images. It supports many file formats and can handle protected documents with an optional password.
From the registry: MCP server for GroupDocs.Viewer — render pages as PNG and inspect view info via AI agents.
Please install the `groupdocs-viewer-mcp` MCP server into my current AI client (that's you).
Required prerequisites (do these first if not already done):
- **.NET 10 SDK** — Install the .NET 10 SDK to run the server with the recommended `dnx` method. (https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet/10.0.)
Canonical MCP server config (stdio transport):
- command: `dnx`
- args: ["GroupDocs.Viewer.Mcp","--yes"]
- optional environment variables:
- `GROUPDOCS_MCP_STORAGE_PATH`: Base folder for input and output files. Defaults to the current directory. (example: `<path-to-documents-folder>`)
- `GROUPDOCS_MCP_OUTPUT_PATH`: Optional separate folder for output files. Defaults to GROUPDOCS_MCP_STORAGE_PATH. (example: `<path-to-output-folder>`)
- `GROUPDOCS_LICENSE_PATH`: Path to a GroupDocs license file. If omitted, the server runs in evaluation mode. (example: `<path-to-license-file>`)
Note: Preferred install path is `dnx GroupDocs.Viewer.Mcp --yes`. For shared or committed configs, the README recommends pinning a version by replacing `GroupDocs.Viewer.Mcp` with `GroupDocs.Viewer.Mcp@<version>`.
