PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Docs, sheets & office work

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Download the maker’s .mcpb file

The link goes to the maker’s own file; we do not host or repackage it. Open the file and Claude Desktop installs it.

Run this in your terminal

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

Common questions

Is MarkdownPointer safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.1.1) reached the registry 9 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need MCPB on your computer.

What can I use instead?

MarkdownPointer

Vibe writing for Markdown. Point at anything, tell AI to fix it.

MarkdownPointer renders your Markdown and lets you click any element - headings, code blocks, table cells, Mermaid diagram nodes, KaTeX math - to copy a filepath:line reference. Paste it into your AI prompt, and the AI knows exactly where to look.

To change a node's color:

Click the node, paste the reference into your prompt, and ask the AI — done.

Color this node orange [c:\docs\architecture.md:6] mermaid node: mdp.exe

More prompt examples:

  • Verify this section for technical accuracy [ref]
  • Swap these two sections [ref] [ref]
  • Delete this [ref]
  • Simplify this paragraph [ref]
  • Add a code example after this section [ref]
  • Fix the grammar here [ref]
  • Translate this section to Japanese [ref]

Install

In a PowerShell 7 console:

Install-Module MarkdownPointer

Quick Start

mdp .\README.md    # Open a file

mdp .\docs\*.md # Open multiple files mdp # Just launch the viewer

MCP Server Setup

Connect MarkdownPointer to Claude so your AI can open and navigate documents directly.

Run these in PowerShell 7:

Register-MdpToClaudeCode       # Claude Code

Register-MdpToClaudeDesktop # Claude Desktop

Other MCP clients: Add the output of Get-MarkdownPointerMCPPath -Escape as the command in your MCP client's configuration file.

Troubleshooting: If the MCP client fails to connect to the server, .NET 10 Desktop Runtime may not be installed. .NET 10 is not included with Windows — install it and try again.

Then just ask Claude:

  • "open README.md in mdp"
  • "show the report in mdp and scroll to line 50"
  • "export report.md to docx"
  • "export slides.md to pptx"
  • "import presentation.pptx to markdown"
  • "show me slide 3 of slides.md"
