The Take

It wires into Claude via MCP and exposes a single /stew prompt plus two tools (get_epub_system_prompt and email_epub_to_kindle) to convert conversations into EPUBs and push them to a Kindle address. Practical and focused — however it's tethered to the Claude ecosystem, consumes your Claude tokens, and enforces a 2,000-word cap as a guardrail.

Post Description

Blog: https://ankitgupta.dev/blog/building-stewreads

Over past year, I have realized (and accepted) two things: - I do actually learn from AI chatbots. - Chat interface is very hard to focus, I cannot go back to a useful chat from the past and reread it to revise the topic I learnt from it.

To solve this, I created StewReads MCP server which instructs Claude to generate a nicely formatted ebook based on the chat. Now, when I feel I have learned something from a chat, I simply invoke the `stew` prompt and have the ebook on my Kindle device and app in minutes. Works well with claude.ai, Claude Desktop app and Cowork. You can also try it by sending ebook to your email if you dont want to setup Kindle yet.

Looking forward to your comments and suggestions. Happy Stewing!

Note: it uses your Claude tokens, so be mindful. Ebook size is capped at 2000 words as a guardrail. I use sonnet for brainstorming and learning, and can comfortably generate an ebook a day on the Pro plan.

StewReads – Turn Claude chats into Kindle ebooks

Uses MCP smartly so Claude itself can call a tool to condense and structure a whole conversation into title/chapters, then spits out an EPUB and emails it to your Kindle in minutes — simple but immediately useful. It's not reinventing the world, but the pragmatic pipeline (model→formatter→Epub→SMTP) and the /stew prompt shortcut make saving conversations feel like a one-line command; I'd want clearer privacy and management details next.
