This MCP server exposes Bo Kendell's background, past projects, writing, and current technical work directly to agents. Instead of scraping HTML pages, models query structured endpoints like /mcp and /.well-known/agent-card.json to inspect the author's background.
The server runs remotely via HTTP transport at https://bokendell.com/mcp. Setup requires neither an account nor an API key, as it interfaces with a public endpoint. Aside from MCP integration, you can query the same data directly in a shell using npx bokendell projects --json.
An active internet connection is mandatory because the tool queries remote web endpoints on demand.
