che-word-mcp

A Swift-native MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for Microsoft Word (.docx) manipulation. 149 tools, no runtime dependencies, single binary.

Quick Start

Claude Desktop

Add to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "che-word-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "che-word-mcp-kosta"]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

claude mcp add che-word-mcp -- npx -y che-word-mcp-kosta

Requirements

• macOS 13.0+ (Ventura or later) — this is a native Swift binary
• GitHub release asset CheWordMCP must exist for the matching version, because the npm package downloads that binary during postinstall

What It Does

Create, read, edit, and export Word documents (.docx) directly from Claude or any MCP-compatible AI agent. No Microsoft Word installation needed.

149 tools covering: document management, content operations, formatting, range-aware inline editing, tables, styles, lists, page setup, headers/footers, images, export (text & markdown), hyperlinks, bookmarks, comments, track changes, footnotes, endnotes, field codes, and more.

Comment replies use parent_comment_id + text, and tracked revisions can be listed or accepted/rejected either one at a time or all at once. format_text and format_text_range support highlight clearing plus rich run formatting like strikethrough, vertical_align, small_caps, all_caps, and underline_style, and false now clears the new boolean rich-format toggles. search_by_formatting can filter underline presence/style, strikethrough, vertical alignment, and caps in addition to bold/italic/color/highlight. replace_text remains exact-match for typographic variants in this release, so - does not match –, and straight quotes do not match curly quotes.
