Available tools 3

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

document

check_document_service

Check whether document conversion and extraction are available. Use this before a workflow or when another document tool reports a temporary availability problem. No document input is required. Returns: A dictionary with status='healthy', or an actionable error object.

extract

extract_document_fields

Extract structured fields and full text from a document image. Use this for invoices, receipts, forms, and similar PNG or JPEG images when the agent needs named fields rather than Markdown. PDF input is intentionally rejected; use pdf_to_markdown for PDFs. Returns: A dictionary containing request metadata, extracted fields, and text, or an actionable error object on failure.

pdf

pdf_to_markdown

Convert a PDF into readable Markdown for analysis and retrieval. Use this when an agent needs the text, headings, tables, and document structure from a PDF. Supply exactly one source: a public URL or base64 PDF bytes. The optional page range is useful for large documents. Returns: Markdown text on success, or an actionable error object on failure.

Brainiall Documents — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Brainiall Documents do?

It exposes 3 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: check_document_service, extract_document_fields, pdf_to_markdown. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →

Is Brainiall Documents working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 365 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Brainiall Documents?

Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does Brainiall Documents need an API key?

No. Brainiall Documents completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 3 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Brainiall Documents?

It answers our handshake in 365 ms on average, which is faster than 49% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
