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 the GitHub account thomasjudes-del for this listing. That does not show the account is the product's maker.

Overview

AI-generated overview

FICTURN is a remote MCP server that lets an assistant browse and read a small library of short, pre-authored fiction inside ChatGPT.

What you can do: Browse the story catalog by genre, mood or reading time
Open one fixed story at its first part in an inline reader
Fetch the next fragment of the story already open, with previous/continue navigation and a progress indicator
When to use it: When a user asks for a short story, quick fiction or a five-minute read, or wants something in a specific genre or mood such as romance, romantic suspense, uncanny horror, mystery or near-future science fiction.
Requirements: A remote MCP endpoint; no login, account, API key, environment variable or header is required. Works in ChatGPT, including on mobile.

Before you install

Read-only and stateless: it does not generate, rewrite or store story text, and the README states there is no database, payment or advertising. Story prose is fixed and versioned, so the assistant cannot adapt or continue a story beyond the supplied fragments.

Installation

In SourceWeft

Open FICTURN — Short Fiction Inside ChatGPT 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/io.github.thomasjudes-del%2Fficturn/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
