You can manage LaTeX resumes directly from Claude using this MCP server. It lets you create, edit, and compile resumes from templates, store multiple files, and generate PDFs with a simple, document-centric workflow.

How to use

You interact with the MCP server through your MCP client to perform common resume tasks. You can create new resumes from templates, edit existing ones with full replacement or targeted find/replace, and compile your resume to PDF. You can also list, read, and delete resumes, as well as manage templates and configuration. Use natural language commands or explicit tool actions to drive the workflow, for example: creating a new resume, adding experience, and then compiling to PDF.

How to install

Prerequisites: you need a running MCP client environment. You also need either Python and pip or the uvx tool to run the MCP server locally.

uvx latex-resume-mcp

Or install via Python’s package manager for a local npm-free setup.

pip install latex-resume-mcp

Configuration and running locally

Choose one of the supported local run methods and configure it in your environment. The server runs as a local stdio process started by the MCP client.

uvx latex-resume-mcp

Additional setup steps

If you want to customize where resumes and templates are stored, you can provide environment variables when launching the server.

LATEX_RESUME_DIR=/path/to/your/resumes LATEX_TEMPLATES_DIR=/path/to/your/templates uvx latex-resume-mcp
