Magnifica Humanitas (Leo XIV, 2026): navigate 245 paragraphs, sections, and footnotes.

Overview

AI-generated overview

Lets an assistant browse and search the 245 paragraphs of the Magnifica Humanitas encyclical without loading the whole text.

What you can do
Exposes the document as structured tools: list_structure returns the table of contents with paragraph ranges, get_chapter returns a full chapter (1-5), get_section returns a section by fuzzy title match, get_paragraph returns one numbered paragraph, and search finds paragraphs containing a word or phrase. The text is fetched live from the Vatican website, so the assistant can navigate the document piece by piece instead of pulling all 245 paragraphs into context.
When to use it
Useful when someone wants an assistant to answer questions about this encyclical, quote specific paragraphs, or locate where a topic appears, without pasting the whole document into the conversation.
Requirements
Runs as a local process over stdio. Installable via npx (Node.js) or uvx (uv), or run as a Docker image. No accounts, API keys, or environment variables are declared; network access is needed to fetch the document from the Vatican website.
Before you install
The content is retrieved from an external website at runtime, so availability and wording depend on that source. The server is read-only and declares no credentials, so it does not write, send, or delete data on the user's behalf.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Magnifica Humanitas Mcp in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.
