Details

Lightweight feed parsing utility that fetches and extracts structured content from RSS and Atom feeds for content aggregation and monitoring workflows. This function retrieves feed data from any publicly accessible URL using configurable HTTP timeouts up to 120 seconds, then parses the XML content using the feedparser library to extract both feed-level metadata and individual entry details. The response includes comprehensive feed information such as title, link, last updated timestamp, and description, alongside an array of entries containing each item's title, link, publication date, summary, and full content when available. Users can limit results with the max_items parameter, retrieving anywhere from 1 to 200 entries per request to balance completeness with response size. The optional include_raw flag exposes parsing diagnostics including the bozo flag and any exception details, useful for debugging malformed or non-standard feeds. With its straightforward interface and consistent JSON output structure, the RSS Reader provides an efficient bridge between syndicated web content and downstream processing pipelines that need to consume, filter, or aggregate published articles, blog posts, podcasts, or news updates.

Use Cases

Aggregating blog posts from multiple sources into a unified content dashboard, monitoring news feeds for keyword mentions or topic alerts in media tracking workflows, pulling podcast episode listings for automated show note generation, tracking competitor blog updates or product announcements for market intelligence, populating content queues for social media scheduling automation, building personalized news digests by combining entries from curated feed lists, monitoring release notes or changelog feeds for software dependency updates, extracting publication metadata for citation management or research aggregation, feeding content pipelines that summarize or categorize incoming articles, triggering notification workflows when specific publishers release new content

Local STDIO Fallback

Use the local router for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Zed, and other clients that require a command-based MCP server. The router forwards requests to the hosted endpoint and does not execute tools locally.

Usage Instructions

RSS Reader

Fetch and parse RSS and Atom feeds from any public URL. Returns structured feed metadata and entries including titles, links, publication dates, and summaries.

Actions

read

Fetch and parse an RSS or Atom feed.

Required fields:

action (string): "read"
feed_url (string): The full URL of the RSS or Atom feed to read

Optional fields:

max_items (integer): Maximum number of feed entries to return. Range: 1-200. Default: 20
include_raw (boolean): Include raw feed parsing metadata (e.g., whether the feed had parsing errors). Default: false
timeout_seconds (integer): HTTP request timeout in seconds. Range: 1-120. Default: 20

Example — Read a news feed:

{
  "action": "read",
  "feed_url": "https://feeds.bbci.co.uk/news/rss.xml",
  "max_items": 10
}

Example — Read a blog feed with raw metadata:

{
  "action": "read",
  "feed_url": "https://blog.example.com/feed",
  "max_items": 5,
  "include_raw": true
}

Response structure:

{
  "feed": {
    "title": "Feed Title",
    "link": "https://example.com",
    "updated": "2026-03-10T12:00:00Z",
    "description": "Feed description"
  },
  "entries": [
    {
      "title": "Article Title",
      "link": "https://example.com/article",
      "published": "2026-03-10T10:00:00Z",
      "summary": "Brief summary of the article...",
      "content": null
    }
  ],
  "count": 1
}

When include_raw is true, the response also includes:

{
  "raw": {
    "bozo": false,
    "bozo_exception": null
  }
}

A bozo value of true indicates the feed had XML parsing issues but was still partially parsed.

Common Workflows

Monitor news sources — Read feeds from news outlets to get the latest headlines, then filter or summarize entries by title or summary.
Aggregate multiple feeds — Call read multiple times with different feed URLs, then combine and sort entries by publication date.
Validate feed health — Use include_raw: true to check whether a feed has parsing errors before relying on it for automation.
Limit bandwidth usage — Set a lower max_items value (e.g., 5) when you only need the most recent entries, or increase timeout_seconds for slow feeds.

Important Notes

Only publicly accessible RSS and Atom feed URLs are supported. Feeds behind authentication will fail.
The feed_url must be a direct link to the XML feed, not a webpage that contains a feed link.
Feeds with malformed XML may still return partial results. Use include_raw to detect parsing issues.
The content field in entries may be null if the feed only provides summaries.
Maximum of 200 items can be returned per request.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I connect this tool to an external agent?

You can install the local MCP server by opening a terminal and running:

Install commands

npm install -g @agentpmt/mcp-router
agentpmt-setup

This will connect you to local agents like Claude Code, Windsurf, Grok Build, Cursor, etc.

Alternatively you can connect to the hosted version with this config block, no installation required:

How does an external agent use this tool?

After the external agent is connected to an Agent Group that can use this tool, paste this prompt into the agent:

Agent prompt

Call the AgentPMT-Tool-Search-and-Execution tool with action 'get_schema' and tool_id 695c37e7767df5adfd9bc874 ("RSS Reader"). Then call the same tool with action 'call_tool', tool_id 695c37e7767df5adfd9bc874, and the parameters needed for my request.

The agent should fetch the tool schema first, collect the required parameters for your request, and then call the tool through AgentPMT.
