You have a FastMCP-based toolchain designed to split long novels into precise segments, manage bulk rewrite tasks, and run as an MCP service from your local environment. It provides a Web UI for easy interaction and MCP integration to automate task retrieval and processing through a Cursor editor. This guide teaches you how to install, run, and use the local MCP server and its task workflows.

How to use

You will run the local MCP server and connect to it from your MCP client to manage and process novel rewriting tasks. The workflow includes loading a novel, splitting it by token counts, creating batch rewrite tasks, and executing those tasks through the MCP interface to produce rewritten outputs.

How to install

Prerequisites you need before installation:

# Install Python if not present
# Then install and run the local MCP server as described below

Two ways to deploy the MCP server locally

You can run the MCP service using UV to manage dependencies and execution, or run directly with Python. Choose one of the configurations below and place them in your mcp.json file.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "novel-processor-local": {
      "command": "uv",
      "args": [
        "--directory",
        "<FASTMCP_DIR>",
        "run",
        "main.py",
        "--work-dir",
        "<WORK_DIR>"
      ]
    }
  }
}

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "novel-processor-local": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["<FASTMCP_DIR>\\main.py", "--work-dir", "<WORK_DIR>"]
    }
  }
}

Starting the Web interface locally

Start the Web UI to interact with the MCP server and manage projects, tasks, and logs.

# If using Python to run the web interface
python app.py --work-dir "<WORK_DIR>"

# Or, if you prefer UV-based workflow
uv run app.py --work-dir "<WORK_DIR>"

Available tools

split_novel

Intelligent segmentation of long texts by token counts across multiple encodings to produce accurate, standalone segments.
