What is the OPML Podcast & RSS Parser MCP Server?
When you want Claude to recommend new podcasts or blogs based on what you already consume, you export an .opml file from Apple Podcasts, Pocket Casts, or Feedly. But XML outlines are noisy, recursive, and confusing for LLMs to read efficiently.
This MCP uses a fast, deterministic XML parser to flatten the OPML hierarchy into a simple, structured list of your subscriptions, dropping all the unnecessary XML tags and attributes.
The Superpowers
- Universal Support: Parses OPML files from any standard podcast player or RSS reader.
- Zero Token Waste: Converts heavy XML markup into a clean, flat JSON array.
- Local Privacy: Your subscription habits are parsed locally, ensuring they aren't uploaded to a public server.
- Assistant Ready: Turn Claude into your personal entertainment and news curator.
Built-in capabilities (1)
Provide the absolute file path. Parse an OPML file (Podcast or RSS feed export) into a clean JSON list of subscriptions
