mcp-kindle

mcp-kindle is a read-only, source-scoped MCP server for local Kindle library data.

Version 0.1.0 reads from the local Kindle database or XML export cache. It is intended for direct LLM read access without exposing any write path, and follows the shared conventions documented in mcp-source-playbook and mcp-source-foundation.

Implemented

• MCP stdio server via mcp-kindle-server

• profile and health reporting

• library reads through kindle_library

• focused unit tests for XML parsing and profile behavior

Tools

• kindle_profile

• kindle_health

• kindle_library

Configuration

At least one local source must be available:

export KINDLE_DB_PATH="/path/to/kindle.db"
export KINDLE_XML_PATH="/path/to/KindleSyncMetadataCache.xml"

CLI

mcp-kindle profile --format json
mcp-kindle library --format json
mcp-kindle-server

Safety

• read-only by default

• local-file based, with no cloud mutation path in v1

• no credentials are required unless a future cloud connector is added
