Docwriter
Enables programmatic creation, modification, and compilation of structured LaTeX documents for AI agents and automated workflows.
About
The Docwriter server acts as a specialized backend, allowing Model Context Protocol (MCP)-compatible clients, such as AI agents, IDE extensions, or automated workflows, to programmatically generate and manage professional-quality LaTeX documents. This tool streamlines the lifecycle of documents on the local filesystem, from bootstrapping content using predefined templates to applying structured updates and compiling the final PDF output. It empowers automation by facilitating report generation, dynamic content insertion, and document quality assurance, seamlessly integrating with AI workflows to handle complex document creation and editing tasks.
