Apify Content for RAG
io.github.AHMEDFOUAADPublished by GitHub account AHMEDFOUAADv1.0.0Updated Nov 11, 2026
Fresh RSS/Atom items, published podcast transcripts and public PDF text via Apify.
The publisher's own server: Apify MCP Server
Overview
Apify-hosted MCP preset that gives an assistant three tools to fetch fresh RSS/Atom items, podcast transcripts and public PDF text for RAG.
- What you can do
- Fetch fresh RSS/Atom feed items from a given feed
- Retrieve published podcast transcripts
- Extract text from public PDFs
- Inspect and manage the resulting Actor runs and datasets (run details, dataset items, key-value records, abort a run)
- When to use it
- Useful when you want an assistant to pull current public source material — news feeds, podcast transcripts, PDF documents — into a retrieval or summarization workflow, without exposing the whole Apify Store tool list.
- Requirements
- Remote streamable HTTP endpoint at mcp.apify.com with the bundle's tools parameter. Requires an Apify account and authentication: OAuth sign-in, or an Apify API token sent as an Authorization Bearer header. Runs bill to that account; network access needed.
Installation
In SourceWeft
- Open Apify Content for RAG in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
- Connect the required credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
- 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/io.github.AHMEDFOUAAD%2Fapify-rag-content/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.Other MCP clients
Add this to your client's mcpServers config. The client completes OAuth sign-in on first connect.

Apify MCP data presets for AI agents
Copy-paste MCP configs that give Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code (Copilot) or Claude Code a small, focused set of public-web-data tools instead of the whole Apify Store. Each bundle points the official hosted Apify MCP server at three specific Actors using its documented ?tools= URL parameter, so the agent sees exactly three dedicated tools plus the run/dataset helpers.
Disclosure: I (GitHub @AHMEDFOUAAD, Apify user
ahmed.fouaad82) built and sell these Actors on Apify Store. They are paid per result (pay-per-event). The first results of every run are free (25 for most of these Actors; see each Store page's Pricing tab), then the listed price applies. You need your own Apify account (OAuth sign-in or your own API token); runs bill to your account, and Apify's free plan includes $5/month of usage. This repo only contains client configs: it is not affiliated with or endorsed by Apify.
Each bundle folder has: cursor.mcp.json, vscode.mcp.json, token variants, claude_desktop_config.json (stdio bridge via mcp-remote) and a server.json (official MCP Registry entry).
Why presets?
- Fewer, sharper tools. A preselected endpoint exposes only the tools for one job, which keeps the agent's tool list short and its choices predictable (Apify recommends pinning tools in production).
- Fresh public data. Job boards, feeds, transcripts, PDFs, sitemaps and link status, fetched at run time, returned as structured JSON.
- Pay per result. No subscription for these Actors; the first results of every run are free.
Verified
On 2026-11-11 the three endpoints were initialized against https://mcp.apify.com (server apify-mcp-server 0.21.5) and tools/list returned the expected tools, for example for the jobs bundle:
The jobs bundle's claude_desktop_config.json was also run as-is through npx mcp-remote@latest (stdio bridge, Node 22): initialize and tools/list returned the same 7 tools.
A real tool call (ahmed-dot-fouaad82--rss-feed-reader, 3 items from the Hacker News RSS feed) returned SUCCEEDED with 3 dataset rows and 0 charged results (free slice). Re-run the check yourself with scripts/check_preset.py.
Notes from that test:
- Endpoints that preload an Actor require authentication (OAuth or token); without it the server answers HTTP 401. Only discovery tools (
search-actors,fetch-actor-details, docs) work anonymously. - OAuth sign-in was not exercised by the script (it used a token header); OAuth is the method Apify documents as recommended.
Security
- Never commit your Apify token. The token variants read it from an environment variable or a secure prompt.
- The Actors only read public pages (no logins, no private data). Each Store page documents its sources and robots/ToS limits.
Licence
MIT for the configs and script in this repo. The Actors are separate paid products on Apify Store.
