PDF Reader (PDF Agent Stack) — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for PDF Reader (PDF Agent Stack)?
PDF Reader (PDF Agent Stack) runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package @shuji-bonji/pdf-reader-mcp.
How do I connect PDF Reader (PDF Agent Stack)?
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 runs locally, so the command pulls @shuji-bonji/pdf-reader-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
