PDF Triage

PDF Triage runs locally from a Node.js package published to the npm registry: pdf-triage-mcp version 0.1.2. It speaks MCP over stdio, so the client starts it as a program and talks to it through standard input and output. It needs Node.js; clients usually start it with npx — the usual command is npx -y pdf-triage-mcp@0.1.2. It reads these environment variables: PDF_TRIAGE_LOG_LEVEL, PDF_TRIAGE_MAX_CHARS and PDF_TRIAGE_MAX_FILE_BYTES; set them in the client's configuration for this server. Required arguments: --root.

In the mcpServers JSON format that many desktop and editor MCP clients read, the entry looks like this (placeholders in angle brackets):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pdf-triage-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "pdf-triage-mcp@0.1.2"
      ],
      "env": {
        "PDF_TRIAGE_LOG_LEVEL": "<value>",
        "PDF_TRIAGE_MAX_CHARS": "<value>",
        "PDF_TRIAGE_MAX_FILE_BYTES": "<value>"
      }
    }
  }
}
