Practical overview

When it fits

Use Anymd when agent workflows need locally processed Markdown or associated text from a range of document and media formats, or when an MCP-compatible client needs conversion and search tools.

Who it is for

  • Developers integrating document and web-content ingestion into AI-agent workflows.
  • MCP-client users who want local conversion and search over supported content.
  • People preparing scanned images, audio or video for downstream text processing.

Documented uses

  • Convert PDFs, office documents, EPUB, HTML and web pages into Markdown.
  • Process images with OCR to produce text for agent workflows.
  • Extract audio transcripts and video subtitles or metadata.
  • Search across supported sources, including directories, through the documented CLI or MCP tool.
Before you choose

Requirements & limits

The documented setup uses npx and requires Node 18 or later; npm installs a native binary for the platform. The repository lists an MIT license.

  • The MCP server runs locally, and the README says content is not uploaded.
  • OCR uses installed local document-VLM models or Tesseract; OCR setup requires explicit opt-in.
  • Audio transcription uses ffmpeg and bundled Qwen3-ASR; ASR model downloads require explicit opt-in.
  • The README documents npm/npx, Python and Docker routes in addition to manual MCP client configuration.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.

Source-based practical guide

Set up Anymd as an MCP server with npx

Make Anymd available to an MCP-compatible client using the documented npx command.

Before you start

  • Node 18 or later
  • An MCP-compatible client

Steps

  1. Run the command below to add Anymd to MCP clients on the machine.

    Documented command
    npx -y @sylphx/anymd setup

  2. For manual configuration, set the MCP server command to npx with arguments -y and @sylphx/anymd in the client.

Expected outcome

The client is configured to launch the local Anymd MCP server.

Guide limitations

  • The documented setup command adds Anymd to every MCP client on the machine; the README also documents client-specific configuration.
  • OCR setup and ASR model downloads require explicit opt-in.
