Connect an AI assistant

Mint a token and let an assistant read, search and act on your queue over MCP.

Available on the Paid and Premium plans.

What an assistant can do

Reader answers the Model Context Protocol (MCP), so an assistant can read your feeds without you opening Reader. With 11 tools it can list what you follow, read your queue and search it, and, with a write token, mark posts read, save them, and follow or unfollow a feed.

An assistant asked what is new, answering from your queue.

Connect one

  1. Mint a token

    In Settings → Agents, fill in What is this for? so you recognise the token later, and choose What it may do: Read only or Read and write. Press Mint a token.

  2. Copy it now

    The token is shown once. Copy it before leaving the page; mint another if you lose it.

  3. Configure your client

    Give your assistant's client the address Settings shows, ending in /mcp, and the token as a bearer token.

  4. Ask

    Ask your assistant what is new. It reads your queue rather than a browser.

Revoke a token

Settings lists every token with when it was last used and when it expires. Press Revoke and it stops answering from the next call.

Questions

Which clients work?

Any client that lets you set a bearer token in its configuration. A client that can only sign in through an authorization flow has nothing to sign in against here.

Is there a limit?

You can hold 10 tokens. Each lasts 365 days and has 500 calls a day, and says so when they are spent.
