# Docs MD

**Share Markdown online for free — no signup.** Paste a Markdown file and get a rendered link with Mermaid diagrams, highlighted code, and an expiry you choose (1, 7, 30 days, or never). Share from the browser at [docs-md.com](https://docs-md.com), from Cursor or Claude Code through the MCP server, or from scripts with the REST API. Shares are public URLs; an edit token lets you update or delete them in place.

Worked examples with downloadable documents: [share an implementation plan for review](https://docs-md.com/share-implementation-plan) · [agent handoff document](https://docs-md.com/agent-handoff-document) · [architecture diagram with notes](https://docs-md.com/share-architecture-diagram) · [no-account sharing services compared](https://docs-md.com/share-markdown-without-account).

## Demo: share a plan from Claude Code

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http md-share https://docs-md.com/api/mcp
```

Then, with a plan open:

> Publish implementation-plan.md with a 7-day expiry. Give me the reading link and keep the edit token out of the document.

The assistant calls `share_markdown` and returns the rendered URL, the raw URL, the expiry date, and the edit token. Later, "update the share with the new plan" calls `update_share` — same link, new content.

## API

See [docs-md.com/api-docs](https://docs-md.com/api-docs). Summary:

- `POST /api/share` — body `{content, filename?, expiry?}` where expiry ∈ `1d|7d|30d|never`; returns `{id, url, rawUrl, editToken, expiresAt}` (expiresAt `0` = permanent)
- `PATCH /api/share/:id` — header `x-edit-token`, body `{content, filename?}`
- `DELETE /api/share/:id` — header `x-edit-token`
- `GET /raw/:id` — raw `text/markdown`

Indexing policy: only permanent shares are indexable; expiring shares are served with `noindex` (a request to search engines, not a guarantee). All shares are public to anyone with the link; expiry deletes the page at its URL but cannot recall downloaded copies.

## MCP Registry

Published in the [official MCP Registry](https://registry.modelcontextprotocol.io) as `com.docs-md/markdown-share` — remote streamable-HTTP server at `https://docs-md.com/api/mcp` with tools `share_markdown`, `update_share`, and `delete_share`.

## MCP Setup

Remote streamable-HTTP server, no API key. Per-editor configs (Cursor, Claude Code, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed) are on [docs-md.com/ai-powered-ide](https://docs-md.com/ai-powered-ide). Cursor, in `~/.cursor/mcp.json` or the project's `.cursor/mcp.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "md-share": {
      "url": "https://docs-md.com/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

Restart Cursor, then say: "Share this markdown file with a 7-day expiry".

## Security Configuration
