Word MCP Server

Word MCP Server is an MCP server that enables users to create, open, and modify Microsoft Word (.docx) documents directly through Model Context Protocol clients. Built on Python using FastMCP and the python-docx library, it connects large language models directly to document generation workflows. Software developers, administrative professionals, and content creators use this tool to automate repetitive reporting and formatting tasks. By exposing document actions as standardized tools, the server allows AI models to generate complex Word files from natural language prompts. It supports adding headings of varying hierarchy levels, formatting paragraphs with customized font sizes and alignments, applying bold or colored run-level styling, highlighting text, inserting images from file paths or numpy arrays via OpenCV, and building structured multi-column tables. Once changes are made, the server can save the output directly to the local filesystem, simplifying end-to-end document publishing pipelines.
