mcp-page-monitor

Python License: MIT Tests

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that watches web pages and fires alerts when their content changes. Designed to be dropped into any MCP client (Claude Desktop, WorkBuddy, custom agents) so an AI assistant can "keep an eye on" pages without polling them itself.

Why this exists

LLMs are bad at polling — they can't sit and wait. But they're great at reacting to a change notification. mcp-page-monitor bridges that gap: register URLs once, and the server tells the assistant what changed in plain text whenever a page moves.

Features

Feature

Notes

Multi-target watching

Register many URLs, each with its own sensitivity

Robust diffing

SHA-256 hashing + difflib LCS; whitespace/case-insensitive

Adjustable sensitivity

threshold (default 0.98) suppresses cosmetic noise

Pluggable alerts

ConsoleAlertSink built in; subclass AlertSink for Slack/email/webhook

Network-free core

Diff/monitor/alert logic is 100% testable without internet

Install

pip install -r requirements.txt

Use as an MCP server

python -m mcp_page_monitor.server

Then in your MCP client config point to the module. Tools exposed:

  • add_target(url, name?, threshold?) — start watching a page

  • check_target(url) — fetch, diff vs baseline, return change status

Use the engine directly

from mcp_page_monitor.monitor import PageMonitor
from mcp_page_monitor.alerts import ConsoleAlertSink
from mcp_page_monitor.fetching import fetch_url

mon = PageMonitor(fetcher=fetch_url, alert_sink=ConsoleAlertSink())
mon.add("https://example.com", threshold=0.95)
mon.check("https://example.com")   # baseline
mon.check("https://example.com")   # alerts if content shifted

Architecture in one line

fetch ➜ normalize ➜ hash+diff ➜ (changed?) ➜ alert

The diff math (identities verified by tests):

  • identical pages ⇒ similarity == 1.0, changed == False

  • one line changed in 100 ⇒ similarity ≈ 0.99, changed == True under strict threshold

  • first observation is always a baseline and never alerts
