MCP Server Implementation

from mcp import Server
from docx import Document
from openpyxl import Workbook

server = Server("office-mcp")

@server.tool("create_docx")
async def create_docx(title: str, content: str, output_path: str):
    doc = Document()
    doc.add_heading(title, 0)
    doc.add_paragraph(content)
    doc.save(output_path)
    return {"status": "success", "path": output_path}

@server.tool("create_xlsx")
async def create_xlsx(data: list, output_path: str):
    wb = Workbook()
    ws = wb.active
    for row in data:
        ws.append(row)
    wb.save(output_path)
    return {"status": "success", "path": output_path}

Best Practices

1. Validate inputs before document operations
2. Use temp files for large documents
3. Return structured responses with file paths
4. Handle errors gracefully with meaningful messages
