Usage

1. Configure MCP Client

Add the server configuration to your claude_desktop_config.json. The file is typically located in: - Windows: %APPDATA%Claude Desktopconfigclaude_desktop_config.json - macOS/Linux: ~/.config/Claude Desktop/config/claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pdf2png": {
      "command": "uv",
      "args": [
        "--directory",
        "/absolute/path/to/mcp-Pdf2png",
        "run",
        "pdf2png"
      ]
    }
  }
}
