Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Readmd every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

about
about
Free. What Readmd does, prices of the paid tools and HTTP endpoints, and links to docs.
preview
preview_url
Free. Fetches a URL and returns its title, metadata, outline, word and token counts and the first 500 characters of the clean Markdown. Use read_url (paid, $0.001) for the full text.
url
read_url
Read a web page as clean Markdown for an LLM. Fetches the URL (robots.txt respected), extracts the main content (drops navigation, headers, footers, sidebars, cookie banners) and returns GitHub-flavoured Markdown with headings, lists, tables, code blocks (with language) and absolute links, plus metadata (title, description, author, published/modified dates, site name, language, canonical URL, image), an outline of headings, word count and a token estimate. Options: mode=full for the whole page, links=false to save tokens, images=true, include_links=true for the link list, max_tokens to truncate, chunk_tokens to get RAG-ready chunks with heading paths. Also converts native Markdown, plain text, JSON and RSS/Atom feeds. Never charged when it fails: unreachable or 4xx/5xx targets, robots.txt disallow, unsupported types (PDF, images) and empty/JavaScript-only pages return an error and are not settled. $0.001 per page. Costs $0.001 USDC per call via x402 (charged only on success). Without an x402 wallet you get the payment terms and the paid HTTP URL instead.
urls
read_urls
Read up to 10 web pages as clean Markdown in one call, in parallel: the same output as /v1/read for each URL, with a per-URL ok/error. $0.005 per call (= $0.0005 per page at 10 URLs). Charged only if at least one URL is read successfully. Costs $0.005 USDC per call via x402 (charged only on success). Without an x402 wallet you get the payment terms and the paid HTTP URL instead.

Readmd — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Readmd do?
It exposes 4 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: about, preview_url, read_url, read_urls. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Readmd working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 249 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Readmd?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Readmd need an API key?
No. Readmd completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 4 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Readmd?
It answers our handshake in 249 ms on average, which is faster than 59% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
