Runs on your machine from its package; the steps are below.
What it does
- Reads
- Writes
- High impact
At most: creates or changes data: records, files, settings.
What it costs
FreeOdel charges nothing per call. The publisher may charge for its own service.
Runs locally over stdio
This server isn't hosted — your MCP client launches it from a package registry. Use one of the commands below, or drop the config into your client (e.g. Claude Desktop).
Run
npx -y diemdesk-mcp
MCP client config
{
"mcpServers": {
"diemdesk-mcp": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"diemdesk-mcp"
]
}
}

All-in-one productivity multi-tool — one app replacing six.
Use it inside Claude
An MCP server — its own repo, MIT — lets an assistant call the tools that genuinely need a server — the Office and PDF conversions, PDF/A, OCR, and web capture:
claude mcp add --scope user diemdesk -- npx -y diemdesk-mcp
Nine tools, not a hundred: everything else runs in the browser and never touches a server, so exposing it here would mean uploading files to do work the machine already does locally. Setup guide, Claude Desktop config and troubleshooting: https://diemdesk.com/mcp-server
