URL Text Fetcher MCP Server

Tiny MCP server for LM Studio that adds two tools:

  • fetch_url_text(url): returns visible page text
  • fetch_page_links(url): returns all page links

Quick start

cd /Users/lex/Learning/URL-Fetcher-LM-Studio-MCP-Server python3.12 -m venv .venv source .venv/bin/activate python -m pip install -U pip setuptools wheel python -m pip install -e .

LM Studio setup (paste this into mcp.json)

Use the absolute interpreter to avoid ENOENT errors.

{ "mcpServers": { "url-text-fetcher": { "command": "/Users/lex/Learning/URL-Fetcher-LM-Studio-MCP-Server/.venv/bin/python", "args": ["-m", "url_text_fetcher.mcp_server"], "cwd": "/Users/lex/Learning/URL-Fetcher-LM-Studio-MCP-Server" } } }

Alternative using the console script:

{ "mcpServers": { "url-text-fetcher": { "command": "/Users/lex/Learning/URL-Fetcher-LM-Studio-MCP-Server/.venv/bin/url-text-fetcher", "args": [], "cwd": "/Users/lex/Learning/URL-Fetcher-LM-Studio-MCP-Server" } } }

After saving, restart LM Studio if the tool does not appear.

Working prompts (use inside LM Studio)

  • Summarize a real page: “Use url-text-fetcher.fetch_url_text on https://httpbin.org/html. Give a two‑sentence summary.”
  • List links from a real site: “Call url-text-fetcher.fetch_page_links for https://www.python.org/ and return the first 10 HTTPS links.”
  • Answer using content: “Fetch text from https://docs.python.org/3/whatsnew/3.12.html. What is one notable change in Python 3.12?” "Fetch text from https://www.python.org/. What’s the latest Python release mentioned and when was it announced?"

Troubleshooting

  • ENOENT spawn python: Use the absolute interpreter shown above in mcp.json.
  • Network/SSL errors: try another URL; some sites block scripted fetches.

Local run (optional)

source /Users/lex/Learning/URL-Fetcher-LM-Studio-MCP-Server/.venv/bin/activate python -m url_text_fetcher.mcp_server
