I think this is a good idea in general, but perhaps a bit too simple. It looks like this only works for static sites, right? It then performs a JS fetch to pull in the html code and then converts it (in a quick and dirty manner) to markdown.
I know this is pointing to the GH repo, but I’d love to know more about why the author chose to build it this way. I suspect it keeps costs low/free. But why CF workers? How much processing can you get done for free here?
I’m not sure how you could do much more in a CF worker, but this might be too simple to be useful on many sites.
Example: I had to pull in a docs site that was built for a project I’m working on. We wanted an LLM to be able to use the docs in their responses. However, the site was based on VitePress. I didn’t have access to the source markdown files, so I wrote an MCP fetcher that uses a dockerized headless chrome instance to load the page. I then pull the innerHTML directly from the processed DOM. It’s probably overkill, but an example of when this tool might not work.
But — if you have a static site, this tool could be a very simple way to configure MCP access. It’s a nice idea!
