Any MCP client (Windsurf, Zed, LibreChat, …) — remote server, no command, no keys:
{ "mcpServers": { "chinaready": { "url": "https://mcp.chinaready.co/mcp" } } }
Development
npm install
npm test # vitest unit tests (protocol + tools, upstream mocked)
npm run deploy # wrangler deploy (needs your Cloudflare auth)
The server is a thin stateless proxy over Chinaready's public retrieval API
(search.chinaready.co); it stores nothing and needs no environment
variables. get_article only fetches chinaready.co pages it has validated
as safe site paths.
Usage tracking
Every RPC message writes one data point to the chinaready_mcp_usage
Analytics Engine dataset (blobs: method, tool, outcome, truncated ua;
retention ~90 days). Method and tool names only — arguments and query content
are never logged.
CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN=… CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID=… npm run usage # last 7 days
CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN=… CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID=… npm run usage 30 # last 30 days
Prints the daily volume, the RPC funnel (initialize → tools/list →
tools/call), tool-call breakdown with error outcomes, and a client split
(sdk / probe-bot / browser) so real usage can be told apart from the MCP
directory liveness bots. The token needs Analytics Engine Read.
Raw queries go through the Analytics Engine SQL
API
(POST /accounts/{account}/analytics_engine/sql):
SELECT blob2 AS tool, sum(_sample_interval) AS hits
FROM chinaready_mcp_usage
WHERE timestamp > now() - INTERVAL '7' DAY AND blob1 = 'tools/call'
GROUP BY tool ORDER BY hits DESC
