How to Use the PDF Munk MCP in Windsurf

Q: Can Windsurf use PDF Munk to compress large files?

Yes. Just tell your agent to run compresspdf on your target files. Windsurf executes the operation and reports back when the file size is reduced.

Q: Does PDF Munk work with Windsurf for web-to-pdf tasks?

It does. You provide the URL, and the server executes generatepdffromurl to capture the page content as a structured document.

Stop manually styling reports. Let Windsurf and the PDF Munk MCP server automate document generation directly inside your IDE.

Windsurf handles PDF generation chains

Cascade doesn't just call one tool. It chains `generate_pdf_from_html` and `merge_pdfs` to build complex documentation packages without manual intervention. Your agent inspects your codebase, pulls the necessary data, and pipes it straight into the PDF Munk engine. You get a finished file without leaving your editor.

Template automation for Windsurf agents

Use `list_templates` and `get_template` to see what formats are ready for your project. Cascade pulls these into your workspace automatically. Once you define the data, the server uses `generate_pdf_from_template` to render the output. It saves you from fiddling with CSS just to get a clean print layout.

Quick asset capture in Windsurf

Need a visual reference for your documentation? Use `generate_screenshot` or `generate_image` to grab snapshots of your work. Windsurf stores these files in your project directory immediately. It keeps your development assets in sync with your generated reports.
