Dokümantasyon

HTTrack MCP Server

A FastMCP (Model Context Protocol) server that wraps the classic HTTrack website copier, so AI agents can mirror websites into a shared archive and then browse, read, and search the downloaded content — all over MCP.

Why

HTTrack is battle-tested for offline website copying, but it has no scripting API — only a GUI and a CLI. This server makes it agent-native: an LLM agent can call mirror_site to start a download in the background, poll mirror_status, and later answer questions from the archive via catalog, list_files, read_file, and search_files.

Tools

Tool	Purpose
`mirror_site(url, project, depth, max_rate, filters)`	Start a background mirror into the archive (`/data/<project>`). One active mirror per project — a concurrent request for the same project returns `already_running` with the live `job_id`; different projects run in parallel.
`mirror_status(job_id)`	Job status (`running` / `done` / `failed` + log tail). Omit to list recent jobs; also accepts the project name.
`catalog()`	All projects: short name, short description (auto-derived from each site's `<title>`/meta description), source URL, status, page/file counts, size.
`list_files(project, subpath)`	Directory listing inside a project (name, type, size, modified).
`read_file(project, path, max_bytes)`	Read one text file (HTML/JS/CSS/txt/json/md). Refuses binaries; caps content at 256 KB to keep agent context sane.
`search_files(project, query, max_results)`	Case-insensitive substring search across a project's text files, capped results.

Quick start

Prerequisites: Docker.

docker build -t httrack-mcp-server .

docker run -d --name httrack-mcp --restart unless-stopped \
  -p 9050:8000 \
  -v /path/to/your/archive:/data:rw \
  httrack-mcp

The container exposes the MCP server over streamable HTTP at http://<host>:9050/mcp.

Register in an MCP client

Example for MCPHub-style gateways (streamable-http):

{
  "httrack": {
    "type": "streamable-http",
    "url": "http://192.168.1.35:9050/mcp",
    "enabled": true,
    "description": "HTTrack site mirroring + archive browsing",
    "owner": "admin"
  }
}

Clients that speak streamable HTTP directly can connect to /mcp with no extra auth (nobody is authenticated; run this on a trusted network, or put it behind your gateway's auth). See HELP.md for full usage, examples, and troubleshooting.

Concurrency model

One httrack process per project, isolated by its own output directory — no shared state between projects, so multiple agents can mirror different sites in parallel.
mirror_site guards against double-mirroring the same project (in-process job table + a /proc scan for httrack processes writing to that project directory).

CI

GitHub Actions runs on every PR and push: Python syntax check of server.py, Dockerfile sanity assertions, and a Docker image build.
