Overview

AI-generated overview

Remote Apify-hosted MCP server that extracts web articles into Markdown plus title, authors, date and language for an assistant.

What you can do
  • Extract a web article from a URL as clean Markdown text.
  • Retrieve article metadata such as title, authors, publication date and language.
  • Turn article pages into readable text an assistant can quote or summarize.
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs to read, summarize or quote the content of web articles and wants structured text and metadata rather than raw HTML.
Requirements
A remote MCP endpoint at mcp.apify.com over streamable HTTP, with OAuth sign-in and an Apify API token sent as an Authorization bearer header. An Apify account is needed.
Before you install
Runs are billed per article extracted to your Apify account, so usage costs money. The Authorization header carries your Apify API token, a secret that should not be shared. Article URLs are sent to Apify for processing.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Inkpluck: Article Extractor — URL to Text, Markdown & Metadata in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Connect the required credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
  3. 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.shawmena-dotcom%2Farticle-extract/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

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config. The client completes OAuth sign-in on first connect.
