PoetryDB MCP
A community MCP server that provides tools to search and browse public-domain poems by author, title, or line text, and fetch random poems. It includes four tools: search_poems, get_poem_lines, random_poems, and list_authors, allowing agents to retrieve full poem text and author lists from the PoetryDB database without authentication.
