SumOffice MCP server

Which servers in the official MCP registry are SumOffice's own, whether they answer, and what they offer. A program checked each of these, nobody copied them from a product page.

Whose server it is
  • Registry namecom.sumoffice/officeverified in the MCP registry

The registry name sits under sumoffice.com. The registry only lets a publisher use that namespace after proving control of the domain through DNS or HTTP.

On 2026-10-25 the server answered initialize and tools/list without a sign-in. First answer in 464 ms.

Should an agent connect itNot proven either way yet
  • Whether its tools do the product's job has not been judged yet.
  • Checked on 2 of the 7 days it takes to judge reliability.

Once connected

  • Parameters are untyped or undescribed in 13 of 21 tools: check arguments before calling.

Said by rules from the measurements above. The likely first call is a model's pick from the tool list; read its description before relying on it.

What an agent can do with it

  • not sure · check which Excel macros and formulas carry over before switching
  • not sure · run Excel workbooks on a server without installing Excel
  • not sure · embed office document editing inside an existing application

Each of the product's use cases, put to Jev against this server's tool list: can an agent do it with these tools?

Worth a look

None of the five warning signs in these definitions.

A program checks the server once a day: initialize and tools/list, no model. Tokens are the definitions' length at about four characters a token. The grade averages six checks of every tool's name, description, schema and annotations; it says how well the tools are described, not whether they work. The score weighs what was measured and nothing else: answering (30%), doing the product's job (25%), definitions (20%), context (10%) and use (15%). A part that was not measured is left out, and a hidden instruction caps the score at 40. The state of vendors' MCP servers: method and numbers →

  • document_open

    Open one of the demo files by name: documents footnotes, comments, forms, rtl, wild-horse, workshop, offer, tools; workbooks workbook, functions, macros, queries, gep, vba-web, sqlite, order-desk, onrr, cashflow, pivot, chart, notes…

  • document_open_file

    Open YOUR file in a private editor cabin for this session: a .docx/.doc/.odt document or an .xlsx/.xlsm/.xlsb/.xls/.ods workbook, up to 50 MB. Give exactly one of: url (https link the server can fetch), base64 (file bytes; then name with…

  • document_describe

    Name, pages, paragraphs, words, number of comments and tracked changes, whether track changes is on. For documents; call first.

  • document_read

    Paragraph text as a window: from = index of the first paragraph (0-based), count = how many (max 40). The answer carries next — where to continue, null at the end. A missing paragraph is a refusal, not an invention.

  • document_find

    Paragraphs containing the text (case-insensitive), with snippets around the match.

  • document_comments

    Comments (author, text, anchor, resolved) and tracked changes — up to 50.

  • document_propose_replacement

    Propose the full new text of one paragraph (paragraph_index from document_read). Nothing changes yet: the editor core builds the change on a copy and returns before/after plus checks (numbers, dates, links kept). Then call document_apply…

  • document_apply

    Apply a proposal from document_propose_replacement to the document in this session's cabin (not to your original file). Stale proposal (the document moved on) is refused by the engine — propose again. Repeating an applied proposal is a…

  • sheet_describe

    Workbook overview: every sheet tab with its used range, the current revision, and the header row of the sheet that is open. Call this first, then pass the tab name you need as "sheet" to sheet_read and sheet_find.

  • sheet_read

    Read a rectangular range like A1:F20 (max 60 rows × 26 columns): values and formulas. Empty cells are omitted. ALWAYS pass "sheet" with the exact tab name when the workbook has more than one sheet — without it you read whichever sheet…

  • sheet_find

    Find cells whose value or formula contains the text (case-insensitive) in the used range of a sheet. ALWAYS pass "sheet" with the exact tab name when the workbook has more than one sheet: without it only the sheet that happens to be open…

  • macro_list

    List VBA modules and runnable macros (entry points) in this workbook with their route and blockers. Runs nothing.

  • macro_read_source

    Read the source text of one procedure (module + procedure name from macro_list). Read-only; runs nothing.

  • macro_plan

    Plan a macro run without running it: route, whether the engine can run it natively, blockers, instruction budget.

  • query_list

    List Power Query queries in this workbook: names, step chain, load target, connections. Reads only; refreshes nothing.

  • query_explain

    Explain one Power Query query by name: its steps in order, where it loads, its connection. Reads only; refreshes nothing.

  • workbook_inspect

    Map the whole application model of this workbook in one call: sheets; VBA modules, procedures, which can run here and which are blocked and why; event handlers; external objects (CreateObject) and Windows API (Declare) dependencies…

  • sheet_propose_edits

    Propose new contents for up to 20 cells (formulas like =SUM(B2:B9), or numbers/text). Nothing changes in the workbook: the engine previews the edits on the current revision and reports what would change and whether errors appear; the…

  • sheet_apply

    Apply a proposal from sheet_propose_edits to the workbook in this session's cabin (not to your original file); the engine recalculates. Refused if the workbook revision moved on since the proposal — propose again. Repeating an applied…

  • document_save_copy

    Write the document or workbook as it is now in this session's cabin (after applied proposals) to a copy and return a download link valid for 24 hours. Your original file is never touched. A workbook with macros comes back as .xlsm with…

  • document_export_pdf

    Lay out the document as it is now in this session's cabin (after applied proposals, or as opened) and return a PDF download link valid for 24 hours, plus the page count. Documents only; for workbooks use document_save_copy.

How to connect

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "office": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://view.sumoffice.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Add it

Claude Code, in a terminal

claude mcp add --transport http sumoffice https://view.sumoffice.com/mcp

Add to CursorAdd to VS Code

claude.ai, ChatGPT and other clients: add https://view.sumoffice.com/mcp as a custom connector in the settings.

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.
