Text stats MCP

Count words in an analyst's text using Python 3 and the standard library. The server separates words on Unicode whitespace. Punctuation belongs to the adjacent word. Empty or whitespace-only text yields zero. It accepts up to 65,536 UTF-8 bytes and returns only the count.

Use it in the shared pilot

Choose Use Text stats in the shared marketplace, sign in, and enter your text. The Hub invokes this exact embedded stdio server once per request. The browser receives only word_count. Shared pilot quickstart

Use it locally

Configure a stdio MCP client with python3 as the command and ["-I", "-S", "-B", "/absolute/path/to/server.py"] as the arguments. The server negotiates MCP protocol version 2025-06-18. Each JSON-RPC message uses one line on stdin or stdout. No configuration files, dependencies or credentials are needed.

After initialization, list tools and call word_count with the following arguments.

{"text":"  Quarterly   revenue increased.\n"}

The structured result is {"word_count":3}. Invalid arguments return JSON-RPC error -32602. The server reads and writes only the protocol streams. It does not echo the text in its result or errors.

Deploy on the hub

In a managed workspace, select the built-in Text stats profile, leave Private instance checked and click Deploy instance. Connect an MCP client to the returned HTTPS endpoint using your own bearer token.

To exercise the upload flow instead, upload server.py as Python stdio source. Inspect the uploaded bytes and verify their SHA-256 digest. An administrator can approve the package with the tool array in tools.json. This file must agree with the running server's actual tools/list response. Select the newly approved package to deploy an instance.
