Turn LaTeX math into Unicode text art for READMEs, terminal output, code comments, and plain-text emails from the agent.
Overview
Hyades is a MCP server for the Build phase that renders LaTeX math as Unicode text art for terminals, comments, and emails.
What is this MCP server?
- Renders LaTeX expressions as pure Unicode text art (no image files)
- Remote streamable-http MCP at hyades-mcp.apg.workers.dev/mcp
- Outputs suitable for terminals, comments, and email bodies
- Hyades v1.0.0 from github.com/apology-is-policy/hyades
- Lightweight add-on for STEM-heavy READMEs and CLI demos
- Server version 1.0.0 (server.schema.json)
- Remote URL: https://hyades-mcp.apg.workers.dev/mcp (streamable-http)
- Repository: github.com/apology-is-policy/hyades
What problem does it solve?
Agents and docs often break math formatting when plain text cannot represent equations cleanly.
Who is it for?
Builders writing STEM docs, CLI help, or agent-generated comments that need compact equation display.
Skip if: Publication workflows requiring pixel-perfect LaTeX PDFs or full bibliographic TeX layouts.
What do I get? / Deliverables
You get paste-ready Unicode math art for docs and dev output without generating image assets.
- Unicode text-art representations of LaTeX math
- Doc and comment blocks safe for terminal and email contexts
- Registered remote Hyades MCP endpoint for doc workflows
Recommended MCP Servers
Journey fit
Readable math in docs and developer-facing text is crafted during build when APIs, libraries, and examples are documented. Hyades belongs on the docs subphase because it improves how formulas appear in technical writing without image assets.
How it compares
Unicode LaTeX renderer MCP, not a general documentation generator or browser automation tool.
Common Questions / FAQ
Who is Hyades for?
Developers and indie technical writers who want LaTeX-style math in plain text channels via an MCP-connected agent.
When should I use Hyades?
Use it while drafting docs, terminal UX, or email-safe snippets during build when equations must stay text-native.
How do I add Hyades to my agent?
Add the remote MCP URL https://hyades-mcp.apg.workers.dev/mcp as streamable-http in your MCP client and invoke render tools from the agent.
