Fireside Folio
Use Fireside Folio from ChatGPT and Claude
Ask ChatGPT or Claude to find a free book, puzzle book or encyclopedia article and send it to your reMarkable, Kindle or other e-reader — or to add news sources and saved links to your Daily reads.
Fireside Folio works inside AI assistants that support apps built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP), including ChatGPT and Claude. Once it’s connected, you can just ask:
- “Find an easy sudoku book and send it to my reMarkable.”
- “Send me a picture book about animals in French for my daughter.”
- “Put the Wikipedia and 1911 Britannica articles on the Apollo programme on my Kindle.”
- “Save this article for my Daily reads.”
- “Add OpenAI’s blog and Hacker News to my Daily reads and send me an edition now.”
The address to add
https://firesidefolio.com/mcphttps://firesidefolio.com/mcp/accountSearching the catalogue and the encyclopedias works without an account. The first time you ask the assistant to send something or change your Daily reads, it shows a Connect button. That opens a Fireside Folio page where you sign in and choose Allow. The assistant never sees your password.
What an assistant can and can’t do
A connected assistant can send free, openly licensed items to your devices, save links and encyclopedia topics for Daily reads, add or remove Daily reads sources, send an edition, and see which devices you’ve connected. It can’t read your notebooks or files, delete anything from your e-reader, see your device sign-ins, or change your account. Everything in the catalogue is free, so nothing can ever be bought.
You can disconnect an assistant at any time in Settings › ChatGPT and Claude. Deleting your Fireside Folio account disconnects every assistant too.
How it works
- Create a free Fireside Folio account and connect your e-reader in Settings.
- ChatGPT: in Settings › Apps, add a custom app (you may need to turn on developer mode under Advanced settings) and paste
https://firesidefolio.com/mcp. Choose OAuth when asked how to sign in. - Claude: in Settings › Connectors, add a custom connector and paste
https://firesidefolio.com/mcp/account, then select Connect. - Sign in to Fireside Folio when the assistant opens it, and choose Allow.
Questions
Does it cost anything?
No. Fireside Folio is free, and so is everything in its catalogue. Your assistant’s own plan decides whether you can add custom apps.
What does the assistant learn about me?
Only what a tool returns: search results, and, once you connect, your device names and a summary of your Daily reads (counts and source names). It never receives your password, your device sign-ins or your files.
How do I stop it?
Open Settings in Fireside Folio and choose Disconnect next to the assistant. You can also remove the app from the assistant’s own settings.
