Quick Start

Paste markdown at mdshare.live, start from a blank page, or upload via curl:

bash
curl -X POST https://mdshare.live/api/documents \
  -H "Content-Type: text/markdown" \
  --data-binary @your-file.md

You get back an admin URL. Share it, or generate links with different permissions.

Full API documentation

Features

  • Four permission levels -- Admin, Edit, Comment, View -- each with its own shareable link
  • WYSIWYG editor -- formatting toolbar, tables, code blocks, keyboard shortcuts
  • Inline comments -- anchor comments to specific text, reply, and resolve
  • Real-time sync -- WebSocket collaboration, live presence indicators
  • Link management -- revoke links instantly, optional expiry, 50-link cap per document
  • VS Code & Obsidian plugins -- share markdown directly from your editor
  • API & MCP -- REST API + MCP server for Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor, and Windsurf

MCP Server

bash
npx mdshare-mcp

Say *"upload my-notes.md to mdshare"* in any MCP-compatible AI tool. The MCP server reads files directly from disk (no echoing through the conversation), so it's fast even for large markdown files. Setup guide

Claude Code Plugin

code
/plugin marketplace add urbanmorph/mdshare
/plugin install mdshare@urbanmorph

Wraps the MCP server above with a single skill — Claude reaches for it on phrases like *"share this markdown"*. Setup guide · source

Cursor Plugin

Listed on Cursor Directory — click "Add to Cursor" on the listing page. Same MCP server, same skill as the Claude Code plugin. Source

Obsidian Plugin

Listed in the Obsidian Community Plugins directory — install via `Settings → Community Plugins → Browse → search "mdshare"`. Right-click any `.md` file in your vault to share it; admin URL is copied to your clipboard. Source
