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.

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

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

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "docalyze": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "docalyze-mcp-server"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add docalyze -- npx -y docalyze-mcp-server

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "docalyze": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "docalyze-mcp-server"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "docalyze": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "docalyze-mcp-server"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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.

Common questions

Is Docalyze 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 (0.2.1) reached the registry 7 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Python (uv), Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

Docalyze MCP Server

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that lets AI assistants read and visually analyze local documents — PDFs, Excel spreadsheets, CSV files, Word documents, PowerPoint presentations, and images.

No API keys required. The host AI (GitHub Copilot, Claude, etc.) does all the reasoning directly.

Installation

From VS Code (recommended)

Search for docalyze in the MCP server gallery (Extensions sidebar → MCP tab) and click Install.

From PyPI
pip install docalyze-mcp-server
From npm
npx docalyze-mcp-server

This requires uv or pipx installed — the npm wrapper calls uvx to run the Python package automatically.

Manual setup

Add to your VS Code mcp.json (or settings.json):

{

"servers": { "docalyze": { "type": "stdio", "command": "python", "args": ["-m", "docalyze_mcp_server"], "env": { "PYTHONIOENCODING": "utf-8" } } } }

Or, if you installed via pip and want to use the entry point:

{

"servers": { "docalyze": { "type": "stdio", "command": "docalyze-mcp-server" } } }

Optional Dependencies

The base install handles PDF, Excel, CSV, JSON, and plain text. For additional formats:

# Word documents

pip install docalyze-mcp-server[docx]

PowerPoint

pip install docalyze-mcp-server[pptx]

OCR (requires Tesseract installed on your system)

pip install docalyze-mcp-server[ocr]

Everything

pip install docalyze-mcp-server[all]

Configuration

The server reads documents from a configurable root directory. Set the DOCUMENTS_ROOT environment variable to change it:

{

"servers": { "docalyze": { "type": "stdio", "command": "docalyze-mcp-server", "env": { "DOCUMENTS_ROOT": "/path/to/your/documents" } } } }

If not set, it defaults to the directory containing the server script.
