MCP 3GPP FTP Explorer

A FastMCP-based server exposing tools to browse, download, and extract files from the 3GPP FTP site, plus utilities for Excel and Word documents.

• list_directories_files(path: str, file_pattern: str) → List[str]
• crawl_ftp(path: str, depth: int, delay: float) → List[str]
• list_files(path: str) → List[str]
• list_excel_columns(file_url: str) → List[str]
• filter_excel_columns_from_url(file_url: str, columns: List[str], filters: Dict[str,Any]) → List[Dict[str,Any]]
• download_and_extract(file_url: str) → Dict[str,Any]
• read_word_doc(doc_path: str) → Dict[str,Any]
• read_docx(docx_path: str) → Dict[str, Any]
• read_pdf(pdf_path: str) → Dict[str, Any]

• WG folder (e.g. /WG1_RL1/): Contains meeting folders: TSGR1_120/, TSGR1_121/, …
• Meeting folder (e.g. /TSGR1_120/): Subfolders include:
  • /Docs/ — contains: .zip files: individual TDocs (e.g. R1-2501674.zip)
  • TDoc_List_Meeting_*.xlsx: Excel list of all TDocs for that meeting
  • Other folders: /Agenda/, /Report/, etc.

Capabilities
