What is the Text Readability Scorer MCP Server?
You ask your AI copywriter: 'Is this blog post easy to read?' It says 'Yes, it is very engaging!' Then you run it through a real SEO tool and it scores at a university reading level — killing your mobile bounce rate.
LLMs cannot accurately count syllables or calculate sentence complexity. This MCP uses the text-readability library to execute standard linguistic formulas, providing mathematical proof of how difficult your text is to read.
The Superpowers
- Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level: The industry standard. Returns a number corresponding to the US grade level (e.g., 8.2 = 8th grade).
- Flesch Reading Ease: A 0-100 scale where higher is easier. Essential for broad audience copy.
- Multiple Algorithms: Also calculates Gunning Fog, Coleman-Liau, SMOG, and Automated Readability Index (ARI).
- Consensus Evaluation: Automatically aggregates all scores to give you a definitive target audience level.
Built-in capabilities (1)
Essential for SEO, marketing, and legal compliance. Calculate rigorous readability metrics for any text (Flesch-Kincaid, Gunning Fog, SMOG, etc.)

Frequently asked questions
Why can't the LLM just estimate the reading level?
Readability formulas (like Flesch-Kincaid) require exact mathematical counts of syllables per word and words per sentence. LLMs operate on sub-word tokens, not syllables, making them notoriously bad at these calculations. This engine uses deterministic linguistic math.
What is a good Flesch Reading Ease score for web content?
For general consumer web content, aim for 60-70. This translates to an 8th-9th grade reading level, which is easily understood by 80% of adults. Legal or academic texts usually score in the 30s or lower.
Does this work for non-English text?
The formulas (Flesch, Fog, SMOG) were developed and calibrated specifically for the English language based on English syllable structures. While the engine will calculate a score for other languages, the grade-level mapping is only statistically accurate for English.
How do I add an MCP server to Claude Code?
Run claude mcp add <name> --transport http "<url>" in your terminal. Claude Code registers the server and discovers all tools immediately.
Can Claude Code run MCP tools in headless mode?
Yes. Claude Code supports non-interactive execution, making it ideal for scripts, cron jobs, and CI/CD pipelines that need MCP tool access.
How do I list all connected MCP servers?
Run claude mcp in your terminal to see all registered servers and their status, or type /mcp inside an active Claude Code session.
