About the project
A local PDF toolkit written in Rust: merge, split, OCR, compress, watermark. Runs as an MCP server for AI agents, CLI, browser WASM, desktop app, and local REST API — files never leave your machine.
Useful for
- Connect the MCP server to Claude Desktop or Cursor so the agent merges and compresses PDFs
- Write a CLI script for batch PDF processing: merge, split, rotate, compress
- Call the local REST API at localhost:7823 from Python, Node, or n8n

Stars per day
Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.

Star trust
Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.
These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
