Add feed-mcp to your Claude Desktop configuration (claude_desktop_config.json) using Docker, then restart Claude Desktop. Alternatively, install via MCP Bundle (.mcpb), Homebrew, Go Install, or Podman. Start chatting by asking Claude about your feeds.

FAQ from feed-mcp
Can I use feed-mcp without Docker?
Yes. You can install via Homebrew (brew install richardwooding/tap/feed-mcp), Go Install (go install github.com/richardwooding/feed-mcp@latest), or download the MCP Bundle for one-click setup in Claude Desktop.
Why is my feed not updating?
Feeds are cached for 10 minutes by default. Wait a few minutes and try again, or restart Claude Desktop to clear the cache.
How do I read local or private IP feeds?
By default, localhost and private IP feeds are blocked for security. Use the --allow-private-ips flag when running feed-mcp.
What transport protocols does feed-mcp support?
The default transport is stdio (standard input/output) for local use. It also supports streamable-http for web deployments (optionally with stateless mode) and the deprecated http-with-sse for backwards compatibility.
Can I add feeds after installation?
Yes. Dynamic feed management lets you add and remove feeds at runtime using the add_feed tool, so feeds are optional at install time.
