Format Conversion
AsciiMath LaTeX MathML Equation Converter
Convert equations between AsciiMath, LaTeX and MathML: auto-detect the input format, produce canonical LaTeX, presentation MathML with an embedded TeX annotation, a best-effort AsciiMath back-translation, a screen-reader aria-label snippet (role=math), and a KaTeX HTML preview.

}List available tools
After connecting to the SSE endpoint, list the exposed tools:
tools/list
{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 1,
"method": "tools/list"
}Call this tool
Invoke the tool by its id, passing arguments built from its parameters:
tools/call
{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 2,
"method": "tools/call",
"params": {
"name": "asciimath-latex-mathml-equation-converter",
"arguments": {
"input": "sum_(i=1)^n (i^3)",
"fromFormat": "auto",
"displayMode": true,
"includeAnnotation": true,
"includeAriaLabel": true,
"showPreview": true
}
}
}Chain multiple tools in one session with a comma-separated toolId list, e.g. /mcp/sse?toolId=png-to-webp,jpg-to-webp,gif-to-webp (max 20).
