MCP

PreviousNext

Learn how to use the shadcn MCP (Model Context Protocol) server with pdfcn.

MCP is an open protocol that standardizes how applications provide context to LLMs. The shadcn CLI can register an MCP server so your editor can discover registry components—including items you install from pdfcn via the same CLI.

Configure MCP

Run:

$ pnpm dlx shadcn@latest mcp init

Choose your MCP client when prompted, then enable the MCP server in that client to finish setup.

Usage

With MCP enabled, you can ask your IDE to work with Takumi and Forme patterns and pdfcn registry components. Example prompts:

  • Build an invoice layout with Table, Heading, Text, and KeyValue.
  • Add a QRCode and Signature to a PDF document.
  • Create a report with Graph, DataTable, and PageHeader.
  • Lay out a PDF using Section, Stack, Divider, and KeepTogether.
  • Implement a multi-page flow with PageBreak, PageNumber, and PageFooter.

Install components from this registry with npx shadcn@latest add and the JSON URL from each docs page. Components work with sensible defaults.
