Overview

What is FetchGate?

When an AI agent fetches a page and it quietly comes back empty (a JavaScript app, a 403, a Cloudflare wall), the agent often does not stop. It answers from memory and never tells you it did not actually read the page. FetchGate refuses to let that happen: the agent gets the content only when the page was really read, and an honest refusal otherwise.

How it decides

Every fetch gets one verdict: RETRIEVED (a real read), FAILED (a definite non-read), or UNKNOWN (fetched, but not enough readable content, often a JavaScript page). Three layers feed it (transport, extraction, content-validity), and the strictest wins. Thin or empty pages can escalate to a real headless browser and get re-checked.

It is deterministic, needs no API keys, and calls no model.

Install

pip install "fetchgate[mcp]" gives you a fetch_url tool for any MCP client.
