Document to Markdown for your code and your agents

MCP server

Add one remote server to Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code or any MCP client. Your agent can then convert a local file or a public URL to Markdown in one call, and read long documents page by page.

Endpoint: https://mcp.anythingmd.com/mcp

Tools

• create_upload — Gets a signed upload link for a local file, so the file never passes through the chat.
• convert_to_markdown — Converts a file or URL and returns the first page of Markdown.
• get_conversion — Checks a running job or reads the next page of a long document.

claude mcp add -s user --transport http anythingmd https://mcp.anythingmd.com/mcp --header 'Authorization: Bearer ${ANYTHINGMD_API_KEY}'

REST API

Start a job, poll it, download the Markdown. Three requests.

1. 1. Start a conversion

   curl -X POST https://anythingmd.com/api/v1/jobs \
     -H "Authorization: Bearer $ANYTHINGMD_API_KEY" \
     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     -d '{"source":{"type":"external","fileUrl":"https://example.com/report.pdf"}}'

2. 2. Poll until it finishes

   curl https://anythingmd.com/api/v1/jobs/job_... \
     -H "Authorization: Bearer $ANYTHINGMD_API_KEY"

3. 3. Download the Markdown

   curl https://anythingmd.com/api/v1/jobs/job_.../artifacts \
     -H "Authorization: Bearer $ANYTHINGMD_API_KEY"

Built for production use

• Quotes before you convert, so you know the cost in credits.
• Partial conversion when your balance runs short, then continue from the next page.
• Idempotency keys, so retries never charge twice.
• A receipt for every job, with pages and credits charged.
• Up to 1,000 pages per document.
