Majin Slide MCP

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for generating markdown slide presentations with AI-powered prompts. This server helps you create professional presentations by generating structured prompts and saving them as markdown files.

Key Features

• Provider-Agnostic: Works with any LLM that supports MCP

Requirements

• Node.js 18 or newer
• VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Desktop, or any other MCP client

3. Save the slides:

   Use the create_slide_file tool to save the generated markdown
