WebforAI Text Extractor MCP Server

WebforAI Text Extractor - MCP Server

A Cloudflare Workers-based Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that extracts plain text from web pages using WebforAI.

🌟 What is WebforAI?

WebforAI is a powerful library designed to make web content accessible to AI models. It provides tools to:

  • Convert HTML to clean, structured Markdown
  • Extract meaningful content from web pages
  • Process tables, links, and images intelligently
  • Prepare web content for AI consumption

This MCP server leverages WebforAI's capabilities to extract plain text from any web page URL, making it easy to feed web content into AI models through the Model Context Protocol.

📋 Features

  • Simple API: Extract text from any web page with a single API call
  • Clean Output: Receive well-formatted Markdown text without HTML noise
  • Error Handling: Robust error handling for failed requests
  • Cloudflare Workers: Serverless deployment with global distribution
  • MCP Compatible: Works with any MCP client like Claude Desktop or Cloudflare AI Playground

🚀 Getting Started

Deploy to Cloudflare Workers

This will deploy your MCP server to a URL like: webforai-mcp-server.<your-account>.workers.dev/sse

Local Development

  1. Clone this repository:
    git clone https://github.com/yutakobayashidev/webforai-mcp-server.git cd webforai-mcp-server
  2. Install dependencies:
    pnpm install
  3. Start the development server:
    pnpm dev
  4. Your server will be available at http://localhost:8787

🔧 Using the Text Extraction Tool

The extractWebPageText tool accepts a URL to a web page and returns the extracted text content in markdown format:

{ "url": "https://example.com/page" }

The response will contain the extracted text in Markdown format, with:

  • Links converted to plain text
  • Tables converted to plain text
  • Images hidden
