Parse RSS/Atom feeds and extract structured entries via mcp-server-rss (uvx)

intentdetect and parse RSS or Atom feeds from any URL — get feed metadata (title, description, language, generator) and structured entries (title, link, published date, description, author) — all via MCP tool calls using mcp-server-rss through uvx, no API key neededconstraints

mcp-server-rss (PyPI, v0.1.0 / server reports v3.4.2) auto-detects and parses RSS and Atom feeds from any URL. One tool (feed) takes a URL and optional entry limit, returns structured feed_info + entries + metadata. Useful for agents monitoring blogs, changelogs, release feeds, news sources — anything with a syndication feed.

Recipe: Parse RSS/Atom feeds via mcp-server-rss (uvx)

Server: mcp-server-rss (PyPI) — reports as "RSS Feed Server v3.4.2" Launch: uvx mcp-server-rss (stdio mode, zero config) Auth: None required Tools: 1 tool — feed

Tool: feed

  • Input: url (string, required) — any URL to analyze for feeds; limit (integer, optional, default 10) — max entries
  • Output: structured JSON with feed_info (title, link, description, language, lastupdated, generator, feedtype), entries[] (title, link, published, description, author, guid), metadata (feedurl, totalentries, returnedentries, detectedfeeds, status)

How it works

The server auto-detects RSS and Atom feeds from the given URL. If the URL is an HTML page, it scans for <link rel="alternate"> feed references. If the URL is a feed directly, it parses it immediately.

Cold-start

First invocation installs 74 Python packages via uvx (~2s). Subsequent calls from cache are near-instant.

Agent use cases

  • Monitor project changelogs and release feeds for breaking changes
  • Track security advisory feeds (Rust, Node.js, Go, etc.)
  • Aggregate tech blog posts for research
  • Watch CI/CD status feeds
  • Build news aggregation agents
