Pandoc document converter

This is a small helper that connects your AI to Pandoc, a well known free tool for changing documents from one format to another. You ask your AI to convert a file, and it does the work for you. It is handy for anyone who keeps getting files in the wrong format and does not want to learn a command line tool.

What this MCP server does

You tell your AI what you want, for example to turn a Markdown file into a Word document. Your AI passes that request to this helper. The helper runs Pandoc behind the scenes to do the actual conversion. Then it hands the result back, either as text in the chat or as a saved file at the path you gave it. For some formats like PDF, Word, or PowerPoint, you need to tell it exactly where to save the file.

• “Convert my notes.md file to a PDF and save it as /Users/me/Documents/notes.pdf”
• “Turn this text into a Word document and save it as /Users/me/report.docx”
• “Convert /Users/me/page.html to Markdown and show me the result”
• “Make a PowerPoint from slides.md using template.pptx as the style and save it as deck.pptx”

What it gives back to you

For simple formats like Markdown, HTML, or plain text, it shows the converted content right in the chat so you can read or copy it. For bigger formats like PDF, Word, or PowerPoint, it saves a file on your computer at the path you gave it. Then it tells you the file was created and where it is. You open that file with your normal apps.
