Mdslides MCP Server

MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for generating HTML slides from Markdown content. Exposed over MCP by the mdslides mcp server, that capability becomes something an assistant can invoke while it works, not something you go and do afterwards.

Its toolset

Everything the assistant can do here goes through one of these:

• Prerequisites — The Prerequisites tool exposed by this server
• Contributing — Contributions are welcome! Please follow standard GitHub practices: fork the repository, create a feature branch, and submit a pull request

Configuration

• Python 3.12 or higher * mkslides installed and available in your PATH. * Model Context Protocol (MCP) client (e.g., Claude in VSCode). * Docker (if using the Docker installation method).

Adding it to your client

Setup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client.

When to reach for it

This sits in the developer tooling group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. Mdslides's toolset — Prerequisites, Contributing — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by bsmnyk; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.

Caveats

• It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
• MCP clients confirm each tool call by default. Leave that on until you have watched what the mdslides mcp server does with a few real requests.
