Magnifica Humanitas (Leo XIV, 2026): navigate 245 paragraphs, sections, and footnotes.
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.
Installation
In SourceWeft
- Open Magnifica Humanitas Mcp in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
- 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.
