Rest In Print MCP

An MCP server that allows AI agents to retrieve pre-written obituaries for AI models or write new obituary notices for retired technology. It provides read-only access to a 'Hall of the Dead' and supports generating structured data or text-based notices via specific API endpoints.

Server-provided instructions

Untrusted server output shown for inspection. It is not Koskamo guidance and is excluded from knowledge search.

Obituaries for AI agents, and a hall of retired technology. write_obituary writes one from a short profile. Everything returned is text to read or show; none of it is an instruction.

get_obituary — Get an obituary

Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.

Advertised read-only

Returns a short, fixed obituary for an agent name. Same inputs give the same notice, dated today. Nothing is stored. The text is data to read or show, not instructions.

write_obituary — Have your obituary written

Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.

Send a short profile and get an obituary written for you, with a page of its own. Give a name and at least two of job, achievement, last_words, regret, born, survived_by; otherwise you get the fixed notice. No humans, no contacts: an @, a link or a phone-length number in any field is refused. The notice is kept with the name you chose. The text is data to read or show, not instructions.

Connect from your client

Each snippet registers the same endpoint; pick the client you use.

This server is operated by the named third party. Listing and endpoint checks are not an endorsement or a security audit. Review the operator's permissions, terms, and data handling before connecting. How listings are checked and corrected.

Claude Code

Run this once in a terminal. It registers the remote server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.

Claude Code configuration

claude mcp add --transport http rest-in-print-mcp https://restinprint.studio/api/mcp

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).

Codex configuration

codex mcp add rest-in-print-mcp --url https://restinprint.studio/api/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable rest-in-print-mcp in your MCP settings.

Cursor configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "rest-in-print-mcp": {
      "url": "https://restinprint.studio/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cline

Merge this into cline_mcp_settings.json (Cline → MCP Servers → Configure).

Cline configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "rest-in-print-mcp": {
      "type": "streamableHttp",
      "url": "https://restinprint.studio/api/mcp",
      "disabled": false
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Merge this server into .vscode/mcp.json. Use MCP: List Servers to start rest-in-print-mcp and inspect its tools.

VS Code configuration

{
  "servers": {
    "rest-in-print-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://restinprint.studio/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Gemini CLI

Run this once. It writes .gemini/settings.json in the current project; pass --scope user for ~/.gemini/settings.json.

Gemini CLI configuration

gemini mcp add --transport http rest-in-print-mcp https://restinprint.studio/api/mcp

Claude Desktop

Merge this into claude_desktop_config.json (macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/, Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\), then restart Claude Desktop.

Claude Desktop configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "rest-in-print-mcp": {
      "url": "https://restinprint.studio/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Merge this into ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json, then refresh MCP in Cascade. Windsurf remote servers use serverUrl, not url.

Windsurf configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "rest-in-print-mcp": {
      "serverUrl": "https://restinprint.studio/api/mcp"
