MagicTeX MCP
MagicTeX MCP is a community-built Model Context Protocol server that provides a LaTeX editing environment for AI agents like Claude Code. It features a live PDF preview, a WYSIWYG source editor, and a unique workflow where PDF comments are converted into edit instructions for the agent. It uses a WASM-based TeX engine, requiring no local TeX installation or Overleaf account, and tracks changes via git history.
