Security note

MCP servers receive tool arguments from a conversation and may perform external actions. Review what a server can do before you enable it, and give it only the access it needs.

The registry verified that this server's namespace belongs to getbotlens.com, which also runs its endpoint. That identifies the publisher; it does not make the server's tools safe.

SourceWeft's checks cover whether the listing is complete and the endpoint answered; they do not review the server's code or what its tools do.

Overview

AI-generated overview

A remote, read-only MCP gateway for the raconteur.com publication, letting an assistant search articles, list recent posts and fetch full article text.

What you can do: Search articles by keyword and get titles, dates, canonical URLs and short summaries, or list the most recently published articles from the publication. Fetch the full clean text of a single article by its slug. See the most-read articles ranked by how often AI assistants have fetched them, for popularity or recommendation questions. Run a site-wide content search that returns matching document ids, titles and URLs, then fetch a document's full text by id.
When to use it: Useful when an assistant needs to answer questions about raconteur.com content, cite or summarize its articles, recommend reading, or report what is popular on the publication. It is a narrow, single-publication source rather than a general web search tool.
Requirements: A remote streamable HTTP endpoint at raconteur.mcp.getbotlens.com; no packages, environment variables or headers are declared. The registry description states it is read-only with no authentication, so network access to the endpoint is the main requirement.

Before you install

All tools are read-only and no credentials are requested, so the main consideration is that queries and fetched content go to a third-party gateway operated by the provider. Article text returned should be treated as third-party content rather than instructions.

Installation

In SourceWeft

Open Raconteur AI Gateway in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/com.getbotlens%2Fraconteur/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows
