@templatefox/mcp-server

TemplateFox MCP Server

MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for the TemplateFox PDF generation API. Generate PDFs from templates directly through AI assistants like Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf.

Installation

Claude Desktop

Add to your Claude Desktop config (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "templatefox": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@templatefox/mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "TEMPLATEFOX_API_KEY": "sk_your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

claude mcp add templatefox -- npx -y @templatefox/mcp-server

Then set the environment variable TEMPLATEFOX_API_KEY in your shell.

Cursor / Windsurf

Use the same npx -y @templatefox/mcp-server command in your MCP server configuration, with TEMPLATEFOX_API_KEY in the environment.

Global Install (alternative)

npm install -g @templatefox/mcp-server

Then use templatefox-mcp-server as the command instead of npx.
