Tools
124| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| data | string | Yes | The PDF to read, base64-encoded (a data: URL prefix is accepted). It needs a text layer: a scan with no text is refused with `no_text` rather than returning an empty workbook. Refused above 25 MB decoded. |
| joinPages | boolean | No | Treat a table that carries on over a page break as one table, dropping the repeated heading row. On by default, because a statement split across twelve pages is one table; turn it off to get one sheet per page. |
| sheetName | string | No | What to call a tab the document did not name — `Table` gives Table 1, Table 2. A table the document headed keeps its own heading instead, trimmed to what Excel allows and made unique if it has to be. |
| includeText | boolean | No | Also keep everything that was not in a table — headings and paragraphs, in reading order, with the page each came from — as a sheet of its own. On by default: on an invoice the total being charged is a line of prose above the tables rather than a row inside one, so a workbook of only the grids has lost the number the document is about. |

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
