What is MCP RSS?
MCP RSS is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for interacting with RSS feeds. It imports feed subscriptions from OPML files, fetches and updates articles automatically, and exposes RSS content through a defined API, intended for use with MCP‑compatible clients like Claude Desktop.
How to use MCP RSS?
Install Node.js v14 or higher and a MySQL database. Run via npx mcp_rss with environment variables configured at minimum an OPML_FILE_PATH pointing to your OPML file. In Claude Desktop, define the command as npx mcp_rss and pass the required environment variables.
