Spec Driven Development
MCP Server that facilitates spec-driven development workflows, not just Vibe Coding.
Description from the maker (original English)
Convert documents, images and web pages to clean Markdown, for agents: single, URL and batch tools.
These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.
We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.
Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Compared with every active server in this category in the registry. Stars count only when the publisher owns the repo.
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.
The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.
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).
The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (2.3.2) reached the registry 10 days ago.

Markitai converts documents, web pages and images to Markdown. A single Rust core powers the markitai command (alias mkai), a local REST service with a browser workspace, an MCP server, and in-process Node.js, Python and Go bindings. The CLI executable needs no Python, Node.js or Go runtime; language bindings need their respective language runtime.
Markitai 2.0 is the Rust rewrite of Python markitai 1.2. See the changelog and compatibility contracts.
macOS and Linux:
curl -fsSL https://markitai.dev/setup.sh | sh
Windows (PowerShell):
powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://markitai.dev/setup.ps1 | iex"
The setup scripts download the release archive for your machine from GitHub Releases, check it against the release's SHA256SUMS, and install markitai, mkai and markitai-mcp for the current user, without administrator rights. Releases cover macOS 11+ (Apple silicon, Intel), Linux with glibc 2.28+ (x86-64, ARM64) and Windows (x64, ARM64). Python users can instead run pip install markitai or uv tool install markitai (Python 3.10+). PyPI has wheels for these six platforms only and no 1.x any more: elsewhere pip has nothing to install and leaves an installed 1.x as it is. Manual downloads, updates, uninstalling and going back to 1.x are in the installation steps.
The archives include license notices and selected Markdown guides for offline use. OCR models, Chromium and LibreOffice are optional separate components. See platform support for requirements, unsigned macOS builds for Gatekeeper, and bindings for language packages.

For a separate trial state, set MARKITAI_HOME before using the CLI: export MARKITAI_HOME="$PWD/.local/try-home". Plain document conversion does not need a model connection. Existing configuration still applies; use --no-llm -b native for local document processing without model enhancement. URL inputs still need the network, even with --no-remote-fetch. Local OCR uses the portable Paddle engine on every platform (macOS Vision with MARKITAI_OCR_BACKEND=vision); doctor --fix can prepare missing Paddle models before offline use. JavaScript pages need Chrome/Chromium; Office page images need LibreOffice. Model enhancement (--llm) uses configured provider credentials or a subscription runtime.
