What is the HTML to Text Extractor MCP Server?
When an AI Agent accesses an API like Zendesk or Gmail to read an email, it often receives a massive 3MB HTML string full of inline CSS and broken tables. Forcing the LLM to read this burns thousands of tokens and confuses the AI. This MCP solves that entirely.
The Superpowers
- Token Saver: Converts complex HTML into readable plain text instantly, saving up to 95% of your LLM context window.
- Smart Formatting: Preserves spatial layout, lists, and links so the LLM still understands the structure of the original email.
Built-in capabilities (1)
Pass the raw HTML and receive a clean plain-text string without any markup. Strips raw HTML into clean Plain Text instantly. Reduces token usage by 95% when agents need to read heavy HTML emails or webpages

Frequently asked questions
Does it keep the links?
By default, it drops the raw hrefs to save tokens, but preserves the text of the link.
Will it extract text from images?
No, it strips <img> tags completely. It does not perform OCR.
Is it safe against malicious scripts?
Yes, <script> tags and their contents are completely ignored and stripped from the final text.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
