TemplateFox MCP Server
MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for the TemplateFox PDF generation API. Generate PDFs from templates directly through AI assistants like Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf.
Installation
Claude Desktop
Add to your Claude Desktop config (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS):
{
"mcpServers": {
"templatefox": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@templatefox/mcp-server"],
"env": {
"TEMPLATEFOX_API_KEY": "sk_your_api_key_here"
}
}
}
}
Claude Code
claude mcp add templatefox -- npx -y @templatefox/mcp-server
Then set the environment variable TEMPLATEFOX_API_KEY in your shell.
Cursor / Windsurf
Use the same npx -y @templatefox/mcp-server command in your MCP server configuration, with TEMPLATEFOX_API_KEY in the environment.
Global Install (alternative)
npm install -g @templatefox/mcp-server
Then use templatefox-mcp-server as the command instead of npx.
