EasyDocForms MCP server

easydocforms-mcp

An MCP server for healthcare intake forms: give an AI agent the ability to turn a blank PDF intake packet into a hosted, mobile-friendly fillable form, hand the patient a link, and retrieve the completed, pixel-exact PDF — without any PHI ever entering the agent's context.

Built on EasyDocForms, whose document-understanding pipeline (field detection, checkbox semantics, consent blocks, signature models) runs healthcare intake in production. This server wraps the Partner API via the easydocforms-go SDK.

The PHI boundary (read this first)

This server is designed so protected health information never passes through the model:

• Imports are blank forms only. import_pdf_from_url requires blank_form_attestation: true and takes a URL, never document bytes.
• get_submission returns metadata and an answer count — never the patient's answers. Answers stay server-side, behind your API key.
• get_completed_pdf_link returns a ~10-minute signed URL the agent can hand to a human or an EMR without exposing your API key. Treat it like a fax.
• external_ref must never contain PHI — it's an opaque correlation id (your visit or order number).

Tools

Tool	What it does
import_pdf_from_url	Import a blank PDF intake form (async; requires blank-form attestation)
get_import_status	Poll an import until its template is ready
list_templates	List the organization's active form templates
create_fill_link	Mint a hosted URL where a patient fills the form
get_submission	Submission metadata + answer count — never answers
get_completed_pdf_link	Short-lived signed download URL for the completed PDF

Install

go install github.com/easydocforms/easydocforms-mcp/cmd/easydocforms-mcp@latest

You'll need an API key from the EasyDocForms app: Settings → Integrations → Partner API (shown exactly once).

Or run the Docker image (no Go toolchain needed):

docker run -i --rm -e EASYDOCFORMS_API_KEY=edfk_live_... ghcr.io/easydocforms/easydocforms-mcp:latest

Try it

With MCP Inspector:

A typical agent session: "Import the intake form at https://clinic.example.com/forms/new-patient.pdf (it's blank), then give me a fill link for visit 8675309." The agent imports, polls, mints a link with external_ref: "visit-8675309", and hands back a URL. After the patient submits, "Is the PDF for that visit ready?" → get_submission + get_completed_pdf_link.

Transport

stdio only, credentials from the environment — per the MCP spec's guidance for locally-run servers. A hosted remote variant (Streamable HTTP + OAuth 2.1) is planned as a second wave.

Development

go test ./... -race
