Dev.to MCP Server

A remote Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for interacting with the dev.to public API without requiring authentication.

Features

This MCP server provides access to the following dev.to public API endpoints:

  • get_articles - Get articles from dev.to with optional filters (username, tag, state, pagination)
  • get_article - Get a specific article by ID or path
  • get_user - Get user information by ID or username
  • get_tags - Get popular tags from dev.to
  • get_comments - Get comments for a specific article
  • search_articles - Search articles using query parameters

Installation

npm install npm run build

Usage

The server runs as a remote HTTP server on port 3000 (or the PORT environment variable) and can be used with any MCP-compatible client.

npm start

The server will be available at http://localhost:3000 for MCP connections.

Development

# Build the project npm run build # Watch mode for development npm run dev # Linting npm run lint npm run lint:fix # Formatting npm run format npm run format:check

Docker

Build and run the MCP server using Docker:

# Build the Docker image docker build -t dev-to-mcp . # Run the container docker run -p 3000:3000 dev-to-mcp

The server will be available at http://localhost:3000/mcp for MCP connections.

Docker Compose

For easier development, you can also use Docker Compose:

# docker-compose.yml version: '3.8' services: dev-to-mcp: build: . ports: - "3000:3000" environment: - PORT=3000
docker-compose up --build
