description	Let AI read full-text WeChat Official Account articles via ReadGZH service. Supports standard articles and image-post formats. Use when user shares a mp.weixin.qq.com link, asks to read/summarize a WeChat article, or mentions "公众号", "微信文章", "gongzhonghao", "weixin article".

ReadGZH — WeChat Article AI Reader

Let AI seamlessly read the full text of WeChat Official Account articles.

How It Works

When a user shares a WeChat article link (mp.weixin.qq.com), use the readgzh.read tool to call the ReadGZH service. ReadGZH will automatically:

1. Scrape and parse the article content
2. Extract the title, author, publish time, and body text
3. Cache the result for future zero-cost access
4. Return clean, AI-friendly formatted text

Key Features

• Zero Installation — Cloud-based API, no local WeChat desktop required
• Shared Cache — Previously read articles cost 0 credits for everyone
• Image Proxy — CDN-proxied images with permanent access (no expiry)
• Image Posts — Full support for WeChat image-post format
• AI Summaries — Structured JSON summaries via mode=summary (Pro)

Usage Examples

Read an article

User: "Read this article for me https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/xxxxx" → Call readgzh.read with the URL

Read an article (plain text mode, recommended)

User: "Read this article https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/xxxxx" → GET /rd?url={URL}&format=text — returns plain Markdown, saves tokens

Search articles

User: "Search WeChat articles about AI" → Call readgzh.search, query = "AI"

Browse recent articles

User: "What articles are available recently?" → Call readgzh.list

Get article by slug

User: "Read the article minicpm-o-4-5" → Call readgzh.get, slug = "minicpm-o-4-5"

API Endpoints

All tools call the ReadGZH API (https://api.readgzh.site):

• Read article: GET /rd?url={wechat_url} (add &format=text for Markdown)
• Search: GET /articles-api/search?q={query}&limit={n}
• List recent: GET /articles-api/recent?limit={n}
• Get by slug: GET /rd?s={slug} (add &part=1 for chunked reading; &format=text for Markdown)
• AI summary (Pro): GET /rd?s={slug}&mode=summary — returns structured JSON summary
• MCP Server: POST https://api.readgzh.site/mcp-server

Authentication

Method 1 (Recommended): Include Authorization: Bearer sk_live_... in request headers.
