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)

readability_scorer

Essential for SEO, marketing, and legal compliance. Calculate rigorous readability metrics for any text (Flesch-Kincaid, Gunning Fog, SMOG, etc.)

FAQ

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.

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.
