Connect this server

This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

claude mcp add pdf-mcp -- uvx pdf-mcp

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pdf-mcp": {
      "args": [
        "pdf-mcp"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"
    }
  }
}

[mcp_servers.pdf-mcp]
command = "uvx"
args = ["pdf-mcp"]

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pdf-mcp": {
      "args": [
        "pdf-mcp"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: PDF_MCP_CACHE_DIR (Directory for storing PDF cache (default: ~/.cache/pdf-mcp)), PDF_MCP_CACHE_TTL (Cache time-to-live in hours (default: 24)). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.
