MarkdownPointer renders your Markdown and lets you click any element - headings, code blocks, table cells, Mermaid diagram nodes, KaTeX math - to copy a filepath:line reference. Paste it into your AI prompt, and the AI knows exactly where to look.
To change a node's color:
Click the node, paste the reference into your prompt, and ask the AI — done.
Color this node orange [c:\docs\architecture.md:6] mermaid node: mdp.exe
More prompt examples:

In a PowerShell 7 console:
Install-Module MarkdownPointer
mdp .\README.md # Open a file
mdp .\docs\*.md # Open multiple files
mdp # Just launch the viewer
Connect MarkdownPointer to Claude so your AI can open and navigate documents directly.
Run these in PowerShell 7:
Register-MdpToClaudeCode # Claude Code
Register-MdpToClaudeDesktop # Claude Desktop
Other MCP clients: Add the output of
Get-MarkdownPointerMCPPath -Escapeas the command in your MCP client's configuration file.
Troubleshooting: If the MCP client fails to connect to the server, .NET 10 Desktop Runtime may not be installed. .NET 10 is not included with Windows — install it and try again.
Then just ask Claude:
