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

Frequently asked questions
Does it support nested subscription categories?
Yes! It recursively scans through folder nodes (like 'Tech News' -> 'AI') in the OPML file to extract the actual feed URLs, flattening them into a clean list for the AI.
What specific data is extracted?
It extracts the Title, the XML (RSS) URL, and the HTML (Website) URL for every single subscription found in the file.
Can it subscribe to new podcasts for me?
No, this is a read-only parsing tool. It allows the AI to understand what you currently listen to so it can make intelligent recommendations.
How does the OpenAI Agents SDK connect to MCP?
Use MCPServerSse(url=...) to create a server connection. The SDK auto-discovers all tools and makes them available to your agent with full type information.
Can I use multiple MCP servers in one agent?
Yes. Pass a list of MCPServerSse instances to the agent constructor. The agent can use tools from all connected servers within a single run.
Does the SDK support streaming responses?
Yes. The SDK supports SSE and Streamable HTTP transports, both of which work natively with Vinkius.
