Aspose.Slides Cloud MCP Server

Install Aspose.Slides Cloud

You need Python 3.11 or later. Install the server into a virtual environment; the first package is the shared file-tool library that every Aspose Cloud MCP server depends on.

python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate    # Windows: .venv\Scripts\activate

pip install \
  git+https://github.com/aspose-cloud/aspose-storage-cloud-python-mcp.git@v1.0.5 \
  git+https://github.com/aspose-cloud/aspose-slides-cloud-python-mcp.git@v1.0.3

This puts the aspose-slides-mcp command into the virtual environment.

Configure Aspose.Slides Cloud in your AI client

Create an application on your Aspose Cloud dashboard to get a Client ID and Client Secret (a free evaluation tier is available). The server reads them from its environment when it starts; they are never passed as a tool argument. ASPOSE_FILES_PATH is the folder on your computer that the server may read files from and write results to.

Example prompts

• List the slides in deck.pptx and extract all of their text.
• In deck.pptx replace "Q3" with "Q4" everywhere.
• Split deck.pptx into one image per slide.

Available tools (8)

Every tool this server exposes, straight from its own tool manifest.

Every server also includes four shared file tools (upload, download, list and delete), so a single server is enough for a complete upload, process, download workflow.
