Docling MCP代理工具

Remote service (required when `DOCLING_MCP_CONVERSION_MODE=remote`)

Installation Options

Getting started

The easiest way to install Docling MCP and connect it to your client is by launching it via uvx.

Depending on the transfer protocol required, specify the argument --transport, for example

• stdio used e.g. in Claude for Desktop and LM Studio

    uvx --from docling-mcp docling-mcp-server --transport stdio
    

• sse used e.g. in Llama Stack

    uvx --from docling-mcp docling-mcp-server --transport sse
    

• streamable-http used e.g. in containers setup

    uvx --from docling-mcp docling-mcp-server --transport streamable-http
    

More options are available, e.g. the selection of which toolgroup to launch. Use the --help argument to inspect all the CLI options.

For developing the MCP tools further, please refer to the Developing section of CONTRIBUTING.md for instructions.

Examples

Configuration

All settings use the DOCLING_MCP_ prefix and can be supplied as environment variables, in a .env file in the working directory, or via the env block of your MCP client config. Copy .env.example as a starting point.

Setting variables in an MCP client config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "docling": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "--from=docling-mcp",
        "docling-mcp-server"
      ],
      "env": {
        "DOCLING_MCP_CONVERSION_MODE": "remote",
        "DOCLING_MCP_SERVICE_URL": "https://your-docling-service.example.com",
        "DOCLING_MCP_SERVICE_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Integration with MCP clients

One of the easiest ways to experiment with the tools provided by Docling MCP is to leverage an AI desktop client with MCP support. Most of these clients use a common config interface. Adding Docling MCP in your favorite client is usually as simple as adding the following entry in the configuration file.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "docling": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "--from=docling-mcp",
        "docling-mcp-server"
      ]
    }
  }
} 

When using Claude for Desktop, simply edit the config file claude_desktop_config.json with the snippet above or the example provided here.

In LM Studio, edit the mcp.json file with the appropriate section or simply click on the button below for a direct install.

Other integrations are described in the [integrations] page.
