What is the File AI MCP Server?

Agent-ready local document context with stable anchors.

What you get

Read-only document awareness MCP server for agents. File AI uses Flyfish File Viewer core as the source of truth for format recognition, then turns local files into a stable profile, anchors, blocks, chunks, outline, search results, and contextual snippets so an agent can understand document content without reverse-engineering PDF, OOXML, spreadsheet, email, or archive internals.
