Building a Gopher MCP Server: Bringing 1991's Internet to Modern AI

Gopher MCP Server
A modern Model Context Protocol server for Gopher and Gemini protocols, enabling AI assistants to browse these classic internet protocols safely and efficiently.
The integration of legacy protocols with modern AI infrastructure reveals fundamental insights about system design philosophy and the evolution of network architectures. The gopher-mcp implementation demonstrates how protocols designed with minimalist principles can provide superior performance characteristics and operational simplicity compared to their contemporary counterparts—lessons that remain highly relevant for modern distributed systems engineering.
