project-description

A small server that takes a web address and extracts an article’s title, text, author, and publication date. It is designed to provide article data for later summarising.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to fetch and structure news articles from URLs. It can serve as the input step for an article-summary tool.
Why use it?
It removes the need to manually copy article details or build the web-fetching and extraction logic yourself.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

project-description scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

The MCP server to scrape news articles

  1. Get URL from user
  2. Fetch articles data from the URL

Tech: requests loguru mcp[cli] newspaper3k

Needed article data: title, text, author, date

This MCP server will use for article summarizers later

The MCP will run with uv or uvx, and not docker-compose

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
