## Description

You don't have time to scroll endless news feeds. This MCP lets your AI client take over your entire content curation process. Instead of opening dozens of tabs and hoping you remember which article was important, your agent acts like a dedicated research assistant that lives inside your workflow. It gives you natural language control over every feed—you can ask it to list all sources or pull the full text from specific articles for deep analysis. You can even manage your organization tags and mark entire reading lists as read with simple prompts. By connecting this MCP through Vinkius, you centralize your news aggregation; your AI becomes the single point of control for managing research boards and keeping up with what matters across every topic.

## Capabilities

### Manage subscriptions
You can programmatically add new sources or stop following old ones.

### Check stream activity
The agent retrieves the newest articles from any specific feed or category in real time.

### Fetch full article content
It pulls complete text and all metadata for deep analysis by your AI client.

### Organize tags and categories
You can list, manage, or update the custom tags and organizational categories you use in Feedly.

### Mark articles as read
The system automatically marks one or more selected articles as consumed, keeping your reading list clean.

## Use Cases

### Quickly auditing research scope
A market researcher needs to know exactly what feeds are contributing to a project. They ask their agent, 'List all my sources for Q3 planning.' The agent runs `list_subscriptions`, immediately providing an inventory list so they don't have to navigate multiple screens.

### Processing competitor news
A content strategist receives a batch of articles. They prompt the agent: 'Pull the full text and metadata for these 5 links.' The agent executes `get_article_details` on each, allowing them to run deep analysis without leaving their main workspace.

### Clearing old reading lists
After a big review session, the editor asks the agent to mark all articles from 'Tech' as read. The agent runs `mark_articles_as_read` for that category, instantly clearing clutter and focusing attention on truly new content.

### Onboarding a new topic
A professional needs to follow a niche industry blog. They instruct the agent: 'Follow this RSS feed and add it under my Finance category.' The agent runs `subscribe_to_feed` and handles the entire setup.

## Benefits

- Automate reading cleanup. Instead of manually marking articles as read, the agent runs `mark_articles_as_read` when you're done, keeping your unread count accurate and manageable.
- Deep dive into sources. When a specific article catches your eye, use `get_article_details` to pull the complete text for summarization, avoiding the need to copy-paste content manually.
- Maintain perfect structure. You can list all tags using `list_tags` or manage categories via `list_categories`, ensuring every piece of research is properly filed without manual effort.
- Centralized monitoring. If you're tracking a major industry event, your agent checks the latest entries from multiple sources using `get_stream_contents`, giving you one comprehensive view.

## How It Works

The bottom line is that once connected, your AI client treats Feedly like another built-in app, responding to natural requests instead of requiring manual API calls.

1. First, subscribe to this MCP and retrieve your Developer Access Token from Feedly's integration settings.
2. Next, connect the token within any MCP-compatible client (like Cursor or Claude) so your agent can authenticate with the service.
3. Finally, tell your agent what you need—for example, 'Show me all unread articles in my Market News category,' and it executes the command.
