The **rendoc MCP server** lets AI assistants like **Claude Desktop**, **Cursor**, and any other MCP-compatible client generate professional PDF documents on demand. Connect your AI to rendoc and it can create **invoices**, **contracts**, **reports**, **certificates**, and any other PDF — from reusable templates or inline HTML/Handlebars markup — all from a natural language prompt.

> Turn *"Generate an invoice for Acme Corp, 40 hours of consulting at €85/h"* into a delivered PDF in seconds.

## Use Cases

| Use Case | Example Prompt |
|----------|----------------|
| **Invoices** | *"Generate an invoice for client X with these line items..."* |
| **Contracts** | *"Draft a freelance contract for TechStart SL, €18,000 fee, 50% upfront..."* |
| **Certificates** | *"Issue a course completion certificate for María González..."* |
| **Reports** | *"Create a March 2026 sales report with these KPIs..."* |
| **Bulk generation** | *"Generate certificates for all 50 attendees in this CSV"* |
| **Custom documents** | Anything you can describe in HTML + data |

See detailed walkthroughs in [**`examples/`**](https://github.com/yoryocoruxo-ai/rendoc-mcp-server/blob/HEAD/examples/).

## Features

- **7 tools** for document generation, template management, and usage tracking
- **Template-based or inline** — save reusable templates or pass markup on the fly
- **Handlebars syntax** — use `{{variables}}`, `{{#each}}`, `{{#if}}` in your markup
- **Multiple paper sizes** — A4, Letter, Legal, A3, A5, portrait or landscape
- **Schema validation** — templates can declare a JSON Schema so the AI can't pass invalid data
- **Zero config** — just set `RENDOC_API_KEY` and go
- **Lightweight** — ~35 KB unpacked, pure TypeScript, only 2 runtime dependencies
- **Verified on [Glama](https://glama.ai/mcp/servers/@yoryocoruxo-ai/rendoc-mcp-server)** — security, quality, and license checks passed

## Quick Setup for Claude Desktop

Add this to your Claude Desktop configuration file (`claude_desktop_config.json`):

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "rendoc": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@rendoc/mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "RENDOC_API_KEY": "your-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

Restart Claude Desktop. The rendoc tools will appear in the MCP tools menu.

## How It Works

```
┌──────────────┐   MCP/stdio    ┌────────────────────┐   HTTPS   ┌─────────────┐
│ Claude Code  │ ─────────────▶ │ @rendoc/mcp-server │ ────────▶ │ rendoc API  │

└──────────────┘ ◀───────────── └────────────────────┘ ◀──────── └─────────────┘
        ▲         tool results                        download URL
        │
        └── User prompt: "Generate an invoice for..."
```

The MCP server translates natural language tool calls from your AI assistant into authenticated REST requests to the rendoc API, and returns structured responses with PDF download URLs.
