MCP Server

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a standardized protocol for managing context between large language models (LLMs) and external systems. An MCP server for ONLYOFFICE DocSpace can be found in this repository.

Installation

Most clients that implement the MCP protocol have a common configuration file in JSON format, inside which you can add the ONLYOFFICE DocSpace MCP server as follows:

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "onlyoffice-docspace": {
            "env": {
                "DOCSPACE_BASE_URL": "https://your-instance.onlyoffice.com",
                "DOCSPACE_API_KEY": "your-api-key"
            },
            "command": "npx",
            "args": ["--yes", "@onlyoffice/docspace-mcp"]
        }
    }
}
