Docforge missed one check this week

Everything else answered, so this is steady rather than shaky. We check every 15 minutes, which is how a one-off gets told apart from the start of a pattern, and how you hear about the next one within the hour instead of from your users.

Available tools 5

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

extract

extract_tables

Detect and reconstruct tables from a text-based PDF. Returns each table as structured rows plus ready-to-use markdown and CSV renderings. Works best on PDFs with clear columnar layout (invoices, reports, statements).

ocr

ocr_image

Run optical character recognition on an image (png, jpg, webp, bmp) and return the recognized text with a confidence score. Supports 100+ languages via the language parameter (ISO 639-2 codes like 'eng', 'deu', 'fra', 'spa').

parse

parse_invoice

Extract structured data from an invoice or receipt: vendor, invoice number, dates, currency, subtotal, tax, total, and line items. Accepts a text-based PDF, or an image when is_image is true (OCR is applied first). Returns JSON.

pdf

pdf_to_markdown

Extract the text of a PDF and convert it to clean markdown. Detects headings by font size and preserves lists and paragraphs. Input: a text-based PDF via file_url or file_base64. For scanned PDFs use ocr_image on page images instead.

render

render_pdf

Render markdown (or simple HTML) into a clean, printable A4 PDF. Supports headings, paragraphs, bullet and numbered lists, blockquotes, code blocks, horizontal rules, and inline bold/italic/code. Returns the PDF as base64 plus page count.

Docforge — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Docforge do?

It exposes 5 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: extract_tables, ocr_image, parse_invoice, pdf_to_markdown, render_pdf. 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 Docforge working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 92 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 1524 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Docforge?

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 Docforge need an API key?

No. Docforge completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 5 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Docforge?

It answers our handshake in 1524 ms on average, which is faster than 3% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
