AIDataParser MCP server

The official Model Context Protocol registry record for AIDataParser — a credit-based data-extraction API that turns PDFs, images and messy text into schema-guaranteed JSON.

There is no server code in this repo. The MCP server is hosted: it lives at https://aidataparser.com/v1/mcp and speaks JSON-RPC 2.0 over Streamable HTTP. This repo holds the server.json that is the source of our record in registry.modelcontextprotocol.io, the canonical upstream every downstream MCP catalog syncs from.

Add it to your client

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "aidataparser": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://aidataparser.com/v1/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer adp_live_..." }
    }
  }
}

Try it before you sign up. try_parse runs a real extraction with no key, no email and no account — up to 4,000 characters of text, 3 calls per day. Add the server without the headers block and call it:

{ "name": "try_parse", "arguments": { "text": "INVOICE #1042 ... Total due $1,240.00", "schema_id": "invoice" } }

When you want more, get a key (50 free credits, no card) — over MCP with the create_api_key tool, or:

curl -X POST https://aidataparser.com/v1/keys \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"email":"you@example.com"}'

Publishing

.github/workflows/publish-mcp.yml publishes on a push to main using GitHub OIDC — no secrets. Bump version in server.json to cut a release; a push that does not change the version is a no-op.

Before it publishes, the workflow runs two gates:

• npm test — static checks on server.json (validate-server-json.mjs). Each rule maps to a real failure from a sibling repo, e.g. the registry's 100-char description cap that 422'd aisotools-mcp-server v0.1.0.

• npm run check:remote — a live initialize + tools/list handshake against the URL about to be advertised. A registry record pointing at a dead endpoint is worse than no record.

Both are runnable locally.
