FAQ from rssmcp

What is rssmcp and what does it do?

rssmcp is an MCP server that provides a tool to fetch RSS feeds. It returns feed entries as formatted text and can optionally export them to a file.

How do I install rssmcp?

You can install it automatically via Smithery using the command npx -y @smithery/cli install @Lunran/rssmcp --client claude, or by manually adding a configuration entry with uvx -U rssmcp and the --opml argument.

How do I configure RSS feeds in rssmcp?

You provide an OPML file as a command‑line argument using --opml path/to/your.opml. This file lists the RSS feeds the server can access.

What does the get_rss tool require?

The get_rss tool takes two required string arguments: feed_name (the name of the feed from your OPML file) and since (a timestamp or other indicator to limit results). It also accepts an optional boolean export_result (defaults to false).

Does get_rss support exporting results to a file?

Yes. If you set the optional export_result parameter to true, the tool will export the fetched feed entries to a file in addition to returning them as formatted text.
