Made an open-source MCP server for India's RTI Online portal

I got tired of logging into the RTI Online portal every time I wanted to check the status of an application.

So I spent some time vibe coding an MCP server for it.

Instead of repeatedly dealing with OTPs and captchas just to check whether an RTI has moved, the server uses your existing View History session URL (obtained after a normal login) and exposes your RTI history through MCP.

It can:

  • 📋 List all your RTI applications and appeals
  • 🔍 Search by registration number, authority or status
  • ⏳ Find overdue RTIs
  • 📄 View application details
  • 📥 Download reply PDFs
  • 📊 Export your RTI history to CSV

It's read-only—it doesn't automate login, solve captchas, file RTIs or submit appeals. You log in once through the official portal, copy your View History URL, and the server does the rest.

If you're someone who files a lot of RTIs or likes using AI assistants with MCP, I'd love for you to give it a try and let me know what you think.
