[!TIP] MarkItDown now offers an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for integration with LLM applications like Claude Desktop. See markitdown-mcp for more information.
[!IMPORTANT] Breaking changes between 0.0.1 to 0.1.0: Dependencies are now organized into optional feature-groups (further details below). Use `pip install 'markitdown[all]'` to have backward-compatible behavior. convert\_stream() now requires a binary file-like object (e.g., a file opened in binary mode, or an io.BytesIO object). This is a breaking change from the previous version, where it previously also accepted text file-like objects, like io.StringIO. The DocumentConverter class interface has changed to read from file-like streams rather than file paths. No temporary files are created anymore*. If you are the maintainer of a plugin, or custom DocumentConverter, you likely need to update your code. Otherwise, if only using the MarkItDown class or CLI (as in these examples), you should not need to change anything.
Works with Claude (desktop and mobile), Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code, and any MCP-compatible AI app.
