Blank Files MCP

filearchitect/blankfiles-website

Connects Claude to blankfiles.com's catalog of minimal valid blank files across dozens of formats. You get tools to list all available file types, filter by category (documents, media, archives, etc.), and retrieve direct CDN download URLs for each format. Useful when you need to generate test fixtures, stub out upload flows, or quickly grab a valid-but-empty PDF, XLSX, MP4, or ZIP without hunting one down manually. The server pulls from a live JSON catalog that includes metadata like MIME types and file sizes, so Claude can recommend the right blank file for your testing scenario and hand you a working URL in one shot.
