convert_file
End-to-end conversion of a remote file: fetches 'source_url' (with SSRF protection), uploads it to FileConvert, and starts a conversion from 'source_format' to 'target_format' (named by extension, e.g. png → webp, docx → pdf). Returns the…
get_balance
Returns the credit balance of the account that owns the API key, plus where to get more. Every conversion costs credits; call this when a conversion fails with 'no credits' or when the user asks how many conversions they have left.
get_download_url
Returns the download URL of a converted file. Pass 'job_id' (conversion uid) to resolve the converted file of a finished conversion, or 'file_id' to download a known file uid directly. The URL needs no authentication (the unguessable file…
get_job_status
Returns the current status of a conversion job. Statuses: Pending → Processing → Completed or Failed (Failed includes the reason). Poll every 2–3 seconds after convert_file / start_conversion; when Completed, call get_download_url. Also…
get_upload_url
Returns instructions for uploading an agent-local file into FileConvert. FileConvert does NOT use presigned upload URLs; instead you upload the file bytes directly to the gateway as a multipart/form-data POST. The response gives the exact…
list_formats
Returns the file formats FileConvert can read and write, along with the format-type categories (image, video, document, audio, …). Use this first to discover valid 'format_type', 'source_format' and 'target_format' identifiers before…
start_conversion
Starts a conversion of a file that is already in FileConvert (a 'file_id' from upload_file or from an earlier job) from 'source_format' to 'target_format' (named by extension). Returns the 'job_id' to poll with get_job_status. Conversions…
upload_file
Uploads file bytes (base64) into FileConvert and returns a 'file_id'. Use this when the file is not reachable by URL, then call start_conversion(file_id, source_format, target_format). For files reachable over http(s), convert_file is a…

How to connect

Add the server to your MCP client config. Claude Desktop, Cursor and most other clients read this shape:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "fileconvert": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://file-convert.online/api/mcp/v1/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Each line is something a program found when it went looking: the registry entry, the server's own answer, a spec that parses. A missing line means we did not find it, not that it does not exist.
