FamilyLore is installed from its publisher's own source and answers where it runs, so this marketplace is not in the path of a single call. There is no address here to send one to, and a panel that pretended otherwise would be showing you an answer we made up. Install it and call it from your own client — the Installation tab has the entry for each one.
What it does
Reads handwritten family letters in old scripts and translates them, with notes on what they meant.
Quickstart
# 1 — add it to Claude Code
claude mcp add --scope user --transport http familylore-mcp https://familylore.ai/mcp
# 2 — ask your agent for something these tools do
# real_letters, script_guide, read_letter and 6 more
FamilyLore costs nothing on mcprush: there is no plan to choose here, no cap to set and nothing mcprush can bill you for.
Collected from a public index. Nobody has claimed this account, so nothing here was written by its author — claim it if it is yours.
Where are you running it?
Every route below installs the same thing and ends at the same approval screen. Nothing here runs on your machine and nothing runs on ours: this server answers at its publisher’s own address, and what you install is the connection straight to it.
This is a public server: it answers at its publisher’s own address and this marketplace is not in the path. Claude Code registers it in one command; --scope user makes it available in every project. The transport below is http, as the publisher's own manifest declares it.

Tool surface
What the model actually sees. Descriptions are diffed on every release — see version history.
FamilyLore's shelf of 16 real handwritten letters from 1758 to 1943, each with FamilyLore's reading: the transcription in the original script, an English translation, and notes on what the letter meant at the time. Use this when someone wants to see a real historical letter: one written in a given script (such as Kurrent, Sütterlin or old Russian cursive), in a given language, from a period or nea

FamilyLore's guide to the 137 letters of five old handwriting styles: Russian cursive, German Kurrent, Sütterlin, Hebrew cursive, American cursive. For one letter: how it was written (its forms, with images), what to look for, the letters it is mistaken for and how to tell them apart, and printed copybook plates where FamilyLore has them. Use this when someone asks how a letter was written in one

| hand | no | The handwriting: Russian cursive, German Kurrent, Sütterlin, Hebrew cursive, American cursive |
Read a photo of an old handwritten letter, postcard or document with FamilyLore: the transcription in its own script, a translation and notes on what it meant then. Use it when the person attaches a photo of a handwritten page and asks what it says. It reads pre-1918 Russian and Ukrainian cursive, German Kurrent and Sütterlin, and Yiddish. It needs the person's FamilyLore account and uses one page
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| photo | no | The photo of the page the person attached | |
| page_id | no | A page already on FamilyLore that hasn't been read, from FamilyLore's own photo upload | |
| language | no | The letter's language, if the person says it or it is plain: ru_uk = Russian or Ukrainian, de_kurrent = German (Kurrent or Sütterlin), yi = Yiddish. Leave it out and FamilyLore tells. | |
| year | no | The year it was written, if the person knows it roughly (1912 for 'about 1912') | |
| target_language | no | The language to translate it into: en (English), de (German), ru (Russian). English if left out. |
The reading of a page in the person's FamilyLore account: the transcription in its own script with the words FamilyLore was unsure of marked, the translation, notes on what it meant, how sure the reading is, and the page's link. Use it with the page id read_letter answered, to show the reading once it is done or to see whether it is still being read.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| page_id | string | yes | The page's id, from read_letter or FamilyLore |
Where a page's reading is, for FamilyLore's card while the page is read.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| page_id | string | yes | The page's id |
The pages in the person's FamilyLore account, newest first: each letter's title, language, the date it was added, whether it has been read, and its page id. Use it when the person asks about letters they have read on FamilyLore; pass a page id to get_reading for that letter's reading.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | integer | no | How many pages to list, newest first |
Ask FamilyLore a question about one page in the person's account: what a phrase meant then, who someone was, what the letter says about something. The answer comes with the letter's lines it rests on, or says that the letter doesn't say. Use it with a page id from read_letter, my_letters or get_reading, once the page has been read. Questions the reading already answers (who is named, what the tran

- Every tool — any call limit is its publisher’s, not ours
- No card, and mcprush charges nothing for it
- Runs at its publisher’s own address — this marketplace is not in the path
- Nothing to cap, because mcprush bills nothing
What counts against your monthly calls
| Tool | Unit | Calls used | Out of the allowance |
|---|
Nothing here is billable: mcprush charges nothing to install FamilyLore or to call it, at any volume.
Two independent axes, because powerful and malicious are different questions. The grade is threat only. The capability level is blast radius, and it is never a penalty on the grade — it is priced as one subtract-only term in the score, where you can see it.
| Term | Level | What it prices | Points |
|---|---|---|---|
| capability-exposure | moderate | capability blast radius (moderate) — client exposure if the model is manipulated | −3 |
| coverage-honesty | manifest | inspection depth (manifest) — how much of the target the scan could see | −4 |
What the scan could actually read
A grade is only as meaningful as its coverage, so the scanner publishes its own depth before it publishes its result.
The scan read each tool’s name, description, input schema and annotations exactly as the server listed them the last time it answered us; no code was reviewed. We ask the server again about once a month, and a list that changed is graded again.
The implementation source was not read — this reflects the declared tool metadata only.
Capability — what it could do if the model were manipulated
Tags derived from each tool’s schema and the implementation, not from what the tool calls itself. moderate is the level these add up to.
| Tool | Capability tags | Why the tag was assigned |
|---|---|---|
| real_letters | no tags | |
| script_guide | no tags | |
| read_letter | external-sink | external-sink: declares readOnlyHint: false, openWorldHint: true |
| get_reading | no tags | |
| reading_status | no tags | |
| my_letters | no tags | |
| ask_letter | no tags | |
| my_allowance | no tags | |
| upload_slot | state-write | state-write: declares readOnlyHint: false |
Toxic-flow graph
The lethal trifecta, checked as a graph rather than as a checklist: untrusted input, a sensitive source and an external sink have to meet before there is a path worth worrying about.
The public result for this release does not print the flow graph, so there is nothing to show here. That is not the same as "no paths were found": what the scan did read is above, under coverage.
Supply chain and provenance
This is the first scan of this surface here, so there is nothing yet to compare it against.
Every result on this tab comes from one deterministic pass over the published package — offline, rule by rule, and auditable line by line above. Same methodology version, same bytes, same score.
Release history
This is an address its publisher runs: which release it serves is theirs to choose, so there is nothing here to pin. The history below is for reading; the current release on file is 1.7.0.
No release note was published with this version.
One review per account, from a signed-in account that does not publish this listing. Nothing else is asked — you can say what you think before you install it. Publishers can reply once per review, and a review can be edited or deleted by whoever wrote it.
Any signed-in account that does not publish FamilyLore can review it, once — before installing it or after. A review from an account that has installed it is marked as one.
Nobody has reviewed this listing. The rating on the card is the mean of the reviews written here and nothing else, so there is no rating until somebody writes the first — which takes a signed-in account that does not publish it, and nothing else.
