Tools

From Microsoft: converts PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, HTML and other files or URLs to Markdown so agents can read and search them. A single convert_to_markdown tool over STDIO or local HTTP.

Official MCP reference server for reading, writing, editing, moving and searching local files within an allowlist of directories, adjustable at runtime through Roots. Handy for organizing documents from a desktop client.

Gives agents the current time and IANA time zone conversion, detecting the system time zone automatically. No API key needed. Official MCP reference server, written in Python.

Official PaddleOCR MCP: text recognition and layout parsing for images and PDFs (PP-OCR, PP-StructureV3, PaddleOCR-VL), returning text or Markdown. Runs inference locally, or calls the official API or a self-hosted service.

Official remote MCP for the open-source resume builder Reactive Resume: agents draft and edit resumes and cover letters, export PDFs and track applications; job-based scoring and tailoring need an AI provider set in the app. Needs a free rxresu.me account or a self-hosted instance.

Open-source Zapier alternative with a built-in MCP server: agents can build and test automations in plain language, manage tables, or call hundreds of apps like email, spreadsheets and chat. Use the cloud or self-host, enable the MCP server in settings and connect via OAuth.

Skyvern's official MCP: drives a browser with vision LLMs to complete multi-step tasks like filling forms, downloading files and web research. Connect to Skyvern Cloud (OAuth or API key), or self-host Skyvern and run it as a local process.

Continuously records your screen and audio locally, extracting on-screen text and transcribing speech, so agents can search pages, docs and meetings you saw and summarize your day. Data stays local. Needs screenpipe running: source is free for personal use, desktop app is a subscription.

Official MCP from the FunASR project: transcribes audio files locally with the SenseVoice model, supporting Mandarin, Cantonese, English, Japanese and Korean, with optional segment timestamps. Local inference needs no API key and audio stays on your machine. Docker image available.

Open-source AI presentation generator that builds slides from a topic or uploaded documents and exports PPTX or PDF, with a built-in MCP endpoint for agents. Good for lesson decks and reports. Self-host with Docker and configure an LLM API key, then have an admin create an MCP key.

Lets agents operate the Windows desktop directly: launch apps, switch windows, simulate keyboard and mouse, read UI elements and run PowerShell, without needing a vision model. Windows only.

Community-maintained MCP for Jira and Confluence: search with JQL/CQL and create or update issues, pages and comments. Supports both Cloud and Server/Data Center deployments; needs an API token or personal access token.

macOS screen capture, accessibility-tree inspection and native UI automation, served over MCP so agents can see the screen and click, type and operate menus. Requires macOS 15+ with Screen Recording and Accessibility permissions granted.

Notion's official self-hosted MCP: uses an integration token to search, read and write pages and data sources, and can read and edit pages as Markdown. Notion now recommends its hosted Remote Notion MCP, and this repo is no longer actively maintained.

Uses Obsidian's community Local REST API plugin so agents can list, read, search, append to and delete notes, and insert content at a heading, block reference or frontmatter field. Install that plugin and configure its API key first.

Create, read and modify xlsx workbooks without Microsoft Excel installed: formulas, formatting and conditional formatting, charts, pivot tables and tables. Runs locally over stdio or as a remote HTTP service.

Works with Gmail, Calendar, Drive, Docs, Sheets, Slides, Tasks, Chat and other Google Workspace services, with multi-user OAuth and read-only mode. You create your own Google OAuth client and run it in HTTP mode.

Searches Google Flights for flights and the cheapest travel dates, filtering by route, date, cabin, stops, airline and alliance, good for trip planning. Open-source Python, no API key needed; built on reverse-engineered Google endpoints, so changes at Google may break it.

Converts PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, images, audio, web pages and YouTube transcripts into Markdown that agents can read and cite. Built on Microsoft MarkItDown; the Docker image lacks audio transcription and image recognition, so build locally for full features.

Open-source meeting bot and real-time transcription platform: sends a bot into Google Meet, Teams or Zoom and transcribes live by speaker, with MCP so agents can dispatch bots and read transcripts. Use the hosted service (API key) or self-host.

Community-maintained Slack MCP: reads channel, DM and thread history, searches messages and fetches unread messages; write actions like posting are off by default and must be enabled explicitly. Works with user OAuth or bot tokens over stdio, SSE or HTTP.

Uses Telethon to operate Telegram as your personal account: search, send and receive messages, schedule sends, and manage contacts, groups and channels across 80+ tools, with an optional read-only mode. Needs a Telegram API ID and runs locally as a service.

Lets agents read and write your local Obsidian vault directly: search notes, append to daily notes, tidy tags and properties, and summarize reading or research notes by topic. No need to open Obsidian or install plugins; access is limited to the vault and can be read-only. Needs Node.js 20+.

Local LLM-powered document translator for PDF, Word, Excel, EPUB, SRT subtitles and more; Word and Excel keep their formatting, glossaries can be built automatically, and agents can submit jobs via MCP. Needs uv and an OpenAI-compatible API key; translated PDFs lose the original layout.
