Shakespeare's Monologues — MCP server

A small, read-only Model Context Protocol server that lets MCP-capable AI clients search and fetch Shakespeare monologue metadata from shakespeare-monologues.org.

It's a thin, stateless wrapper over the site's public JSON index (/api/monologues.json) — no database, no secrets. Every result carries the monologue's permalink url (where the full text, scene context, and modern-English paraphrase live) and an attribution note.

Tools

ToolWhat it does
search_monologuesFree-text search (character / play / first line) + filters: gender, play, style, act, limit.
get_monologueOne monologue's index entry by numeric id.
random_monologueA random monologue, optional gender / play filters.
list_playsEvery play with its classification and monologue count.
list_all_monologues_for_a_characterEvery monologue spoken by a named character.
get_monologue_of_the_dayThe current Monologue of the Day (latest social post).
get_paraphrased_monologueA monologue's full text + its modern-English paraphrase (AI-generated; may be null if not yet generated).
get_scene_summaryAI-generated summary of the scene a monologue is in (by monologue id).
get_play_summaryAI-generated summary of a play (by title).
send_feedbackLets an agent report a missing capability, a problem, or praise. Added by the PostHog analytics SDK; only present when analytics is on.

The paraphrase and summaries are AI-generated (Claude) and only partially cached so far, so those tools return null where content hasn't been generated yet.

Run locally

Two transports, same tools. server.ts builds the tool surface and knows nothing about how it's reached; index.ts serves it over HTTP and stdio.ts over stdio.

Over stdio, the way an MCP client spawns a local server:

npx shakespeare-monologues-mcp

Over HTTP, which is how the hosted instance runs:

npm install
npm run build
npm start          # listens on :3000, POST /mcp   (set PORT to change)

Health check: GET /health → {"ok":true}.

Neither mode needs credentials — the server reads the site's public JSON index. Set MONOLOGUES_API_URL to point it elsewhere, and POSTHOG_PROJECT_API_KEY="" to disable analytics.

Connecting a client

Remote MCP means users add a URL, no install. In a client that supports remote / custom MCP servers (Claude Desktop connectors, etc.), add:

https://mcp.shakespeare-monologues.org/mcp

Or run it yourself over stdio, with no hosted dependency:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "shakespeare-monologues": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "shakespeare-monologues-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

For clients configured with a JSON config file, use the streamable-HTTP transport:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "shakespeare-monologues": {
      "type": "streamable-http",
      "url": "https://mcp.shakespeare-monologues.org/mcp"
    }
  }
}

For a client that only speaks stdio, bridge to the remote server with mcp-remote:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "shakespeare-monologues": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://mcp.shakespeare-monologues.org/mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Note on "autonomous" use: there's no mechanism today for an arbitrary agent to discover and use this with zero user action — a client/platform still has to connect it. For truly zero-setup access, agents can hit the plain JSON API (/api/monologues.json) and /llms.txt directly.
