DocMake

@docmake/mcp

Official Model Context Protocol server for DocMake, the AI-native document generation platform. It lets AI assistants like Claude generate DOCX and PDF documents from your DocMake templates: no glue code, just a conversation.

"Generate the invoice for Acme Corp: 10 hours of consulting at 100 EUR, due in 14 days."

The assistant picks your invoice template, fills in the data, renders a PDF through the DocMake API, and hands you the file path.

Example prompts

• "Generate the invoice for Acme Corp: 10 hours of consulting at 100 EUR, due in 14 days."
• "Which fields does my employment contract template need? Then fill it in for Maria Ionescu, starting 1 October, and save it as a DOCX."
• "Import ~/Documents/quarterly-report.docx as a DocMake template, then show me the variables it found."

Setup

You need a DocMake API key. Create one at app.docmake.io under Settings > API Keys (free plan works).

Claude Desktop

Add to claude_desktop_config.json (Settings > Developer > Edit Config):

{

"mcpServers": { "docmake": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@docmake/mcp@latest"], "env": { "DOCMAKE_API_KEY": "dm_your_key_here" } } } }

Claude Code

claude mcp add docmake --env DOCMAKE_API_KEY=dm_your_key_here -- npx -y @docmake/mcp@latest

Cursor / other MCP clients

Any client that supports stdio MCP servers works with the same command: npx -y @docmake/mcp@latest with DOCMAKE_API_KEY in the environment.

Remote server (no install)

DocMake also hosts the same six tools over streamable HTTP, so a client that speaks remote MCP needs nothing installed:

{

"mcpServers": { "docmake": { "url": "https://app.docmake.io/mcp/v1", "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer dm_your_key_here" } } } }

Two differences from this package. render_document returns a short-lived download link instead of writing the file to your machine, and import_docx takes the document as base64 rather than a path, because the server runs remotely and cannot read your disk. Everything else, including strict rendering, behaves the same.

Configuration

Tools

The server also exposes your templates as MCP resources and ships a generate-document prompt for a guided render flow.

How rendering works

render_document is strict by default: if any template variable has no value in data, the render fails and returns the list of missing keys, so the assistant can ask you for the values instead of producing an incomplete document. Pass strict: false to render with each variable's fallback text instead.

Variables can declare a default value in the template editor. A defaulted variable never counts as missing: omit it from data and the default is rendered, even in strict mode. get_template shows each field's default (and example, a preview-only sample that is never rendered).

Rendered files are saved to DOCMAKE_OUTPUT_DIR and never overwrite an existing file.

Privacy Policy

Full policy: https://docmake.io/privacy

What this server collects. Nothing of its own. It has no telemetry and no analytics, and it never reads your chat history, memory, or files other than a .docx you explicitly pass to import_docx.

What it sends, and where. Every tool call is a request to the DocMake API at https://app.docmake.io/api/v1 over HTTPS, authenticated with your API key. Those requests carry only what the call needs: a template id, the data you asked to render, or the .docx you asked to import. DocMake processes that data to render your document.

Storage and retention. Your templates and account data live in your DocMake workspace and are retained until you delete them or close the account. Rendered documents are written to your own machine, under DOCMAKE_OUTPUT_DIR (~/Downloads/DocMake by default), and are never uploaded anywhere else. Your API key stays on your machine: the desktop extension keeps it in your operating system keychain, and a manual setup keeps it in your MCP client's config file.

Third-party sharing. Render data is not sold, and it is not shared with third parties beyond the subprocessors DocMake needs to run the service, listed in the full policy.
