## Description

This MCP server, developed by Nick Loui, integrates with the Paperless-NGX document management system API. Built using Node.js with the litemcp framework and zod for schema validation, it provides tools for managing documents, tags, correspondents, and document types. The server implements a wide range of operations including document listing, searching, downloading, bulk editing, and uploading, as well as tag and correspondent management. By abstracting Paperless-NGX API interactions into a standardized MCP interface, it enables AI assistants to easily interact with and manage document collections. This implementation is particularly useful for applications involving document organization, automated filing, content analysis, and information retrieval, facilitating use cases such as invoice processing, personal document management, and business record keeping.
