⚙️ Configuration

Claude Desktop

Locate the configuration file:
- Linux: ~/.config/claude-desktop/claude_desktop_config.json
- macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
- Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
Add this configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "document-generator": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["--yes", "--cache", "/tmp/.npx-cache", "document-generator-mcp@latest"]
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop

Amazon Q Developer

Open VS Code with Amazon Q extension
Access Amazon Q settings
Add the MCP server:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "document-generator": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["--yes", "--cache", "/tmp/.npx-cache", "document-generator-mcp@latest"]
    }
  }
}

Other MCP Agents (Cline, Continue, etc.)

For other agents that support MCP, add the server configuration:

{
  "name": "document-generator",
  "command": "npx",
  "args": ["--yes", "--cache", "/tmp/.npx-cache", "document-generator-mcp@latest"]
}

Check your agent's specific documentation for configuration details.

🎯 How to Use

After configuration, you can use natural commands in any MCP agent:

Example Prompts

"Create a Word document about sales analysis"
"Generate a PDF report about the project"
"Make a technical manual in Word and PDF"
"Create API documentation in Word format"
"Document this JavaScript code with examples"

Available Tools

gerar_documento_word: Creates Word documents, PDF, or both
gerar_documento_pdf: Creates PDF documents only

📝 Supported Formatting

The MCP automatically processes:

Markdown

# Heading 1 → Heading 1 (20pt)
## Heading 2 → Heading 2 (16pt, blue)
### Heading 3 → Heading 3 (14pt)
#### Heading 4 → Heading 4 (12pt)
- Item → Bulleted list
1. Item → Numbered list
**text** → Bold text
*text* → Italic text
***text*** → Bold + Italic
`code` → Inline code
> quote → Blockquote
--- → Horizontal line

Code Blocks

```javascript
async function example() {
  const data = await fetch('api.com');
  return data.json();
}
```

Auto-Detected JSON (New in v1.0.9!)

JSON objects and arrays are automatically detected and formatted as code blocks:

{
  "status": "success",
  "data": {
    "users": [
      {"id": 1, "name": "John"}
    ]
  }
}

No need for ``` backticks! Just paste your JSON and it will be automatically formatted with syntax highlighting.

Syntax Highlighting Colors (VS Code Dark theme):

🟣 Keywords: async, function, const, await, etc. (#C586C0)
🟠 Strings: "text", 'text' (#CE9178)
🟢 Comments: // comment, /* block */ (#6A9955)
🟢 Numbers: 42, 3.14, 0xFF (#B5CEA8)
🟡 Functions: fetch, console.log (#DCDCAA)
🔵 Types/Classes: Promise, Array (#4EC9B0)

🎨 Features Highlights

🧪 Testing

To test if it's working:

echo '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list","params":{}}' | npx document-generator-mcp@latest

Expected output: List of available tools (gerar_documento_word, gerar_documento_pdf)

🔧 Troubleshooting

Error "use strict: not found"

If you get this error, npm is using an old cached version. Solutions:

Use this optimized configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "document-generator": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["--yes", "--cache", "/tmp/.npx-cache", "document-generator-mcp@latest"]
    }
  }
}

Or clear the cache:

npm cache clean --force
rm -rf ~/.npm/_npx

Documents not generating

Check if generated_documents/ folder exists
Verify Node.js version (18+ required)
Check MCP server logs in your agent

📁 Generated Files

Documents are saved in ./generated_documents/ with unique timestamps.

Example: api_documentation_1759715959772.docx
