How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically against the live server, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score → Why this is hard to score →

Endpoint Security78
  • The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
  • Authorisation is enforced on tool calls, advertised via RFC 9728 protected-resource metadata. Discovery is public, which costs nothing: no tool can be invoked without a token. View diagnostics → Pass
  • HTTPS enforcement could not be verified: the plaintext port answered with HTTP 401, which proves neither a plaintext path nor enforcement. View diagnostics → Unverified
  • HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
  • DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
  • The authorisation server offers only Dynamic Client Registration (RFC 7591), which MCP 2026-07-28 deprecated in favour of Client ID Metadata Documents. View diagnostics → Partial
Transport & Reachability100
Schema Quality & AI Usability75
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
  • Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 697 tokens (~174/item across 4 items; 4 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management100
  • No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.Pass
Tool Coverage100
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
Tool Safety100
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • We read all 4 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 4 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities60
  • Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-06-18; the latest is 2026-07-28. See how to fix → Fail
Install

How do I install the io.usefulapi/docraptor MCP server?

io.usefulapi/docraptor is a hosted endpoint at https://docraptor.usefulapi.io/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools · 4 exposed · ~697 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
docraptor_create_document ~436

Generate a PDF or Excel document from HTML (document_content) or a URL (document_url). Exactly one of document_content / document_url is required. By default the document is HOSTED and the tool returns a { download_url } you can fetch — ideal for agents (no large binary in the response). Set hosted:false to get the raw document back as base64, or async:true to enqueue a job and poll docraptor_get_document_status. IMPORTANT: real documents consume account credits (billed). Set test:true to generate a FREE, watermarked document while developing. DocRaptor API: POST /docs.

NameTypeReqDescription
asyncbooleanIf true, enqueue the job and return a status_id (poll with docraptor_get_document_status). Best for large/slow documents. Default false.
document_contentstringThe HTML/XML source to render. Use this OR document_url.
document_urlstringA URL DocRaptor will fetch and render. Use this OR document_content.
hostedbooleanIf true (default), DocRaptor hosts the file and returns a download_url. If false, the raw document is returned as base64.
hosted_download_limitintegerFor hosted docs: max number of downloads before the link expires.
hosted_expires_atstringFor hosted docs: ISO 8601 datetime when the hosted link expires.
namestringA name for the document (<=200 chars), shown in the DocRaptor dashboard/listing.
pipelinestringRendering pipeline/engine version, e.g. '10'. Omit to use DocRaptor's default.
prince_optionsobjectPDF engine (Prince) options. PDF only.
tagstringAn arbitrary tag string for your own reporting/grouping.
testbooleanIf true, generate a FREE watermarked test document (does not consume credits). Default false = a real, BILLED document.
typestringOutput format: pdf (default), xls, or xlsx.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

docraptor_get_document_status ~88

Check the status of an asynchronous document created with docraptor_create_document({async:true}). Returns status (queued | working | completed | failed), and when completed a download_url / download_id / number_of_pages. DocRaptor API: GET /status/{status_id}.

NameTypeReqDescription
status_idstringyesThe status_id returned by docraptor_create_document when async:true.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

docraptor_list_documents ~99

List metadata for documents created on this account, most recent first (paginated). Note: DocRaptor does not retain the rendered files themselves — this returns metadata such as name, type, test flag, and creation time. DocRaptor API: GET /docs.json.

NameTypeReqDescription
pageintegerPagination page number. Default 1.
per_pageintegerDocuments per page (max 100). Default 100.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

docraptor_list_ip_addresses ~74

List the IP addresses DocRaptor uses to fetch remote assets / document_url. Useful for allowlisting DocRaptor on a firewall or asset host. (DocRaptor notes these change over time — prefer HTTP Basic auth over IP allowlisting for securing assets.) DocRaptor API: GET /ips.json.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

Common questions

What is the io.usefulapi/docraptor MCP server?

io.usefulapi/docraptor is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.usefulapi/docraptor. Turn HTML or a live URL into polished PDF and Excel files, hosted downloads, async jobs, history. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://docraptor.usefulapi.io/mcp).

Is the io.usefulapi/docraptor MCP server safe to use?

io.usefulapi/docraptor scores 85 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

What tools does the io.usefulapi/docraptor MCP server expose?

io.usefulapi/docraptor exposes 4 tools: docraptor_create_document, docraptor_get_document_status, docraptor_list_documents, docraptor_list_ip_addresses. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 697 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the io.usefulapi/docraptor MCP server require authentication?

Yes. io.usefulapi/docraptor asked us for credentials when we connected, so you will need to authorise it in your MCP client before it can do anything.

Is the io.usefulapi/docraptor MCP server still maintained?

io.usefulapi/docraptor is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 21 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
