# MCP RSS Feed Server

This project is a server implementation that detects and parses RSS/Atom feeds using the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

## Available Tools

### feed

Detects and parses RSS/Atom feeds from a given URL.

- `url` (string, required): Target URL to analyze for feeds
- `limit` (integer, optional): Maximum number of entries to return (default: 10, max: 100)

**Returns**: JSON containing:

- `feed_info`: Feed metadata (title, description, language, etc.)
- `entries`: Array of feed entries with title, link, published date, description, author, and GUID
- `metadata`: Response metadata including feed URL, entry counts, and status

## Features

- **Automatic Feed Detection**: Discovers RSS/Atom feeds from websites automatically
- **Multiple Feed Format Support**: Handles RSS 2.0, RSS 1.0, Atom 1.0, and other formats
- **Intelligent Parsing**: Extracts clean, structured data from feeds
- **HTML Cleanup**: Removes HTML tags from descriptions for clean text output
- **Fallback Mechanisms**: Tries common feed paths when direct detection fails
- **Error Handling**: Robust error handling with detailed logging
