eKursy Python MCP Server (ekursy-mcp-py)

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server written in Python using FastMCP, which integrates with the ekursy-zero Rust scraper to expose student profile information, course lists, course grades, page contents, and course materials (PDF/images) from the eKursy platform to AI tools.

Prerequisites

Before running the server, ensure you have:

1. Git installed on your system.
2. Docker installed on your system
3. Python installed on your system

Installation & Setup

Method 1: Automatic Setup Script for Antigravity (Recommended)

If you dont use antigravity this won't work for you. See manual methods below or ask your AI agent

This repository includes a cross-platform setup script that automatically initializes git submodules, prompts you for credentials to create the .env file, and configures the Gemini / Antigravity integration file for you.

• Windows: Run scripts\setup.bat (Double-click or run in terminal: .\scripts\setup.bat)
• macOS / Linux: Run ./scripts/setup.sh (or bash scripts/setup.sh)

The script will configure MCP in Antigravity and start the server in docker. You only need to restart Antigravity and this MCP server should work

---

Alternative/Manual Methods

1. Initialize Submodule & Credentials Manually

If you prefer not to use the setup script:

git submodule update --init --recursive

And manually create a .env file in the root directory:

MOODLE_USERNAME="your.email@student.put.poznan.pl"
MOODLE_PASSWORD="your_moodle_password"

How to Run

Option A: Run via Docker Compose

This runs both the ekursy-zero scraper backend and ekursy-mcp-py server together. The scraper remains private and isolated inside the container network (ports are not exposed to the host).

Run the following command:

docker compose up --build

The MCP server will start on HTTP port 6969. You can verify it by reaching the MCP endpoint: http://localhost:6969/mcp

Option B: Run Locally

To run the server locally (using stdio transport, which is standard for MCP desktop clients):

uv run src/main.py

---

Manual Integration with Antigravity / Gemini MCP

To manually connect this Python MCP server to your Antigravity environment:

1. Locate the configuration file on your system (e.g., C:\Users\Marcin\.gemini\config\mcp_config.json or config.json).
2. Add a new server entry inside the mcpServers object.

Recommended Config (Docker / Streamable HTTP Server)

Add the following snippet to your configuration block:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ekursy-mcp-py": {
      "serverUrl": "http://localhost:6969/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Note: Ensure the MOODLE_API_BASE env variable points to the scraper service instance (e.g. http://localhost:8080 if running ekursy-zero locally/standalone).
