## Trust breakdown

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. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog)

Scored 2026-10-18.

- **Endpoint Security**: 63/100
  - The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key.
  - No authorisation is required to call this server. Every tool declares its destructiveHint and none is destructive, so open access doesn't expose one.
  - HTTPS enforcement could not be verified: the plaintext port answered with HTTP 405, which proves neither a plaintext path nor enforcement.
  - HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent.
  - DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC.
- **Transport & Reachability**: 100/100
  - Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 57/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 955 tokens (~191/item across 5 items; 5 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 7/100
  - Stability observed for 2 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 85/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 56% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 5 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 5 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.

## Install

## MCP tools (5)

### `pdf_edit` (~271 tokens)

Edit a PDF

Edit the text of an existing PDF in place: replace, delete, redact, insert, or fill form fields, keeping the original layout, fonts and everything you did not point at. `edits[]` is taken exactly as the API takes it (`op`, `scope`, `match`, `fit`), and the result carries up to 3 before/after previews of the pages that changed. To change text on one page only, set `scope.pages`; to pick one of several identical matches, use `scope.after` with nearby text or `scope.occurrence`. Use `op: 'redact'` when the text must be unrecoverable.

Input parameters:

- `edits` (array, required): The edits to apply, in order, exactly as `POST /v1/edit` takes them.
- `file` (string, required): The PDF: an absolute (or ~) local path, which this server uploads for you, an https:// URL the API fetches, or an `f_…` file id from an earlier call.
- `options` (object)
- `output_path` (string): Where to write the edited PDF (stdio mode only). Default: `<name>.edited.pdf` next to the input.
- `password` (string): The document open password, when it has one.

### `pdf_batch` (~233 tokens)

Batch-edit a PDF template

Apply the same edits to one template PDF once per record, producing one output document per record — a mail merge over an existing PDF. Returns a `job_id`: call `pdf_job` with it for the per-record results. To change text on one page only, set `scope.pages`; to pick one of several identical matches, use `scope.after` with nearby text or `scope.occurrence`. Use `op: 'redact'` when the text must be unrecoverable.

Input parameters:

- `edits` (array, required): The edits applied to each record, with `{field}` placeholders filled from it.
- `file` (string, required): The PDF: an absolute (or ~) local path, which this server uploads for you, an https:// URL the API fetches, or an `f_…` file id from an earlier call. Used as the template for every record.
- `options` (object)
- `password` (string)
- `records` (array): One object per output document.
- `records_url` (string): A CSV or JSONL file of records, instead of `records`.

### `pdf_find` (~214 tokens)

Read the text of a PDF

Read the text of a PDF: every span with its page, position, font and span id, optionally filtered by `query` (the same four `match` modes an edit uses) and `pages`, over the `content`, `forms` and `annotations` layers. Paginated: pass the returned `next_cursor` back as `cursor` for the next page. Use it before `pdf_edit` to check what a document actually says and to pick the `scope` that selects the match you mean.

Input parameters:

- `cursor` (string|null)
- `file` (string, required): The PDF: an absolute (or ~) local path, which this server uploads for you, an https:// URL the API fetches, or an `f_…` file id from an earlier call.
- `layers` (array)
- `limit` (integer): (default: 200)
- `match` (object)
- `pages`
- `password` (string)
- `query` (string|null)

### `pdf_preview` (~138 tokens)

Render a PDF page

Render one page of a PDF as a PNG image block, optionally cropped to `region` and with rectangles drawn over `highlight`. Use it to see a page before editing it, or to check the result afterwards.

Input parameters:

- `file` (string, required): The PDF: an absolute (or ~) local path, which this server uploads for you, an https:// URL the API fetches, or an `f_…` file id from an earlier call.
- `highlight`
- `page` (integer): (default: 1)
- `password` (string)
- `region`
- `scale`: (default: 2)

### `pdf_job` (~99 tokens)

Job result

The result of an async edit or a batch, by `job_id`: the same body `pdf_edit` returns once the job is done, plus `progress` while it is still queued or running, and `records` for a batch.

Input parameters:

- `job_id` (string, required): The `job_id` an async edit or a batch returned.
- `output_path` (string): Where to write the finished document (stdio mode, single-document jobs only).
