# LaTeX Resume MCP

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that lets you create, edit, and compile LaTeX resumes directly from Claude.

## Features

- **Create resumes** from built-in templates (modern, classic, minimal)
- **Edit resumes** with full replacement or targeted find/replace
- **Compile to PDF** using pdflatex (requires LaTeX installation)
- **Add experience/education** entries with structured commands
- **List and manage** multiple resume files

## Installation

### Using uvx (recommended)

```bash
uvx latex-resume-mcp
```

### Using pip

```bash
pip install latex-resume-mcp
```

## Configuration

Add to your Claude Desktop config file:

**macOS:** `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
**Windows:** `%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json`

### Using uvx

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "latex-resume": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["latex-resume-mcp"]
    }
  }
}
```

### Using pip installation

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "latex-resume": {
      "command": "latex-resume-mcp"
    }

}
```

### Custom directories (optional)

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "latex-resume": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["latex-resume-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "LATEX_RESUME_DIR": "/path/to/your/resumes",
        "LATEX_TEMPLATES_DIR": "/path/to/your/templates"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

## Prerequisites for PDF Compilation

brew install --cask mactex
# or for a smaller installation:
brew install --cask basictex
```

**Ubuntu/Debian:**
```bash
sudo apt install texlive-latex-base texlive-latex-extra
```

**Fedora:**
```bash
sudo dnf install texlive-scheme-basic
```

**Windows:**
Download and install [MiKTeX](https://miktex.org/)
