Real Word documents from chat: proposals, contracts, quotes. It writes .docx files from sections or from markdown, generates priced proposals and freelance service agreements with reference numbers that never repeat, reads an existing Word file back as text and outline, and fills {{placeholders}} in a template while keeping its styles.
Put doc_read and doc_to_html in autoApprove and keep proposal_create and contract_create out of it. Reading a document is harmless; creating a proposal consumes a PROP reference number, and the counter is written before the record, so a burnt number is never handed out again.
| You say | Tool |
|---|---|
| Write a proposal for Beta Corp: checkout rebuild, 4,500 EUR, three phases. | proposal_create |
| Fill my NDA template with this client's details. | doc_fill_template |
| What does this proposal.docx actually say? | doc_read |
The worked proposal issued PROP-2026-0001 at EUR 4,500.00 with a timeline table and a signature block. Template filling substitutes on the joined paragraph text, so a placeholder Word split into three runs is still replaced.
The file is mcp.json, and the key inside it is mcpServers.
| Scope | Path |
|---|---|
| Cline CLI | ~/.cline/mcp.json |
| The editor extension | opened from the Cline panel, not by path; the documentation deliberately calls it the MCP settings JSON used by the extension |

The npm publish of @theluckystrike/mcp-docx is pending; until then use the .mcpb bundle or a clone and build from the latest release.
There is no hosted endpoint for this one yet. MCP Docx runs locally over stdio with the config above, which is also the only form in which it reads and writes files on your own disk. Three of the servers in this collection are served at https://mcp.zovo.one/mcp/<name> over MCP streamable HTTP: time-tracker, price-tracker and invoice.
Cline is the one client here with an unsafe transport default. `type` selects it, and omitting `type` falls back to the legacy sse transport, so a streamable HTTP endpoint needs it written in or you will debug a server that is fine. Local entries carry "disabled" and an "autoApprove" array.
Free: unlimited create, convert and read; 3 proposals or contracts per calendar month; templates up to 10 placeholders. Pro is $19 once, verified offline.
The CLI reads ~/.cline/mcp.json. For the extension, do not hunt for a path: MCP Servers icon, Configure tab, Configure MCP Servers. cline mcp opens a wizard, and cline config mcp --json is the non-interactive form.
Set the transport explicitly. Omitting type falls back to the legacy sse transport, so streamable HTTP needs "type": "streamableHttp" written in. It is the one default here that sends you debugging a server that works.
Approve the read-only ones and leave the writing ones behind a click: each entry carries an autoApprove array and a disabled flag.
