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.

Pluggable natural-language linter that checks Markdown and plain text for wording, punctuation and terminology consistency like code, with auto-fix, and can also run as an MCP server. Rules are installed separately, mostly for Japanese and English; requires Node.js 20+.

Microsoft Azure's official tool for translating Markdown, Jupyter notebooks and image text into 50+ languages; re-translates only changed parts and keeps links and formatting. Needs Python 3.11+ and an Azure OpenAI, OpenAI or Anthropic key; images need Azure AI Vision.
