Lection MCP server
A hosted (remote) Model Context Protocol server for Lection, a tool that turns web pages into structured tables and exports them to CSV, Excel, Google Sheets or a webhook on a schedule.
- Endpoint:
https://www.lection.app/mcp(Streamable HTTP) - Nothing to install, no API key for the public YouTube tools.
- Account tools use OAuth 2.1 (Supabase). Protected-resource metadata: https://www.lection.app/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource
Tools
Public (no sign-in, results capped at 20 rows, official YouTube Data API):
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
youtube_search | Search YouTube videos by keyword: title, channel, views, date, URL. |
youtube_channel_videos | Latest uploads of a channel by @handle or URL. |
youtube_comments | Top-level comments of a public video: author, text, likes, replies, date. |
lection_browser_tools_info | How to export Instagram comments/followers or LinkedIn connections with Lection (those sites need a login, so they run in the Lection browser extension). |
Account tools (OAuth; act only on the signed-in user's own Lection data):
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
my_lection_account | Plan, schedule limits, allowed destinations, cloud credits. |
list_my_saved_scrapes | Recent saved scrapes. |
get_run_results | Rows of a saved scrape or scheduled run as a table. |
list_my_schedules | Scheduled extractions with cadence, destination, next run, status. |
list_my_runs | Recent schedule runs with status and row counts. |
schedule_extraction | Create an hourly, daily or weekly schedule for a saved scrape (email, Google Sheet or webhook). |
pause_schedule | Pause a schedule (resumable in the dashboard). |
All read-only tools carry readOnlyHint: true; pause_schedule is marked destructive and asks for confirmation.
