lovemarkdown-mcp

MCP server for LoveMarkdown — free online Markdown converter. Lets any MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Claude Code, …) convert documents locally:

Tool	What it does
markdown_to_docx	Markdown → styled Word .docx (real heading styles, lists, tables, code blocks, blockquotes)
docx_to_markdown	Word .docx → clean Markdown. Native Word equations (OMML) are restored as LaTeX ($...$ / $$...$$)
markdown_to_latex	Markdown → complete, compilable LaTeX document (amsmath, listings, booktabs, hyperref)

All conversion runs locally in Node — no uploads, no API keys.

Related web tools (free, browser-based, with rendered LaTeX math and Mermaid diagrams):

• Markdown to Word — .docx export with KaTeX-rendered formulas and Mermaid diagrams
• Word to Markdown — .docx → .md with equation restoration
• Markdown to LaTeX, Markdown to PDF, and more at lovemarkdown.com

Install

npm install -g lovemarkdown-mcp

Or run ad hoc with npx — no install needed.

Configure your MCP client

Claude Desktop / Claude Code (claude_desktop_config.json)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lovemarkdown": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "lovemarkdown-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Cursor (~/.cursor/mcp.json)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lovemarkdown": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "lovemarkdown-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

From source

git clone https://github.com/coolnico/markdown.git
cd markdown/mcp-server
npm install
node index.js

Then point your client at node index.js with cwd mcp-server/.

Tool details

markdown_to_docx

• Arguments: markdown (string, required), output_path (string, required).
• Real Word heading styles (document outline / TOC work), bullet + ordered + nested lists, bordered tables, fenced code blocks, blockquotes, hyperlinks.
• LaTeX math is flattened to readable Unicode (\frac{a}{b} → (a)/(b), \alpha → α). Browser-free by design; for formulas rendered as print-quality images use lovemarkdown.com/markdown-to-word.

docx_to_markdown

• Arguments: input_path (string, required), output_path (string, optional — also writes the result).
• Native Word equations (OMML) → LaTeX. Supported constructs: fractions, sub/superscripts, radicals, matrices, cases, n-ary operators (sum/integral/product), limits, accents, bars, function application. Unknown constructs degrade to linear text — equations are never silently dropped.
• Tables are preserved as HTML (GitHub renders them); bold/italic/strikethrough, ordered and nested lists convert to standard Markdown.

markdown_to_latex

• Arguments: markdown (string, required), output_path (string, optional).
• Output compiles with pdflatex/xelatex out of the box; ready to paste into Overleaf.

Notes

• Math images and Mermaid diagrams need a browser environment; use the web app for those. This server targets document-structure conversion and equation extraction.
• The web converters run entirely client-side; this server runs entirely locally. Nothing is uploaded anywhere.
