Overview

What is MCP Server?

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that gives AI assistants the ability to safely access websites and search the web through two tools: Search and Web. Designed for users of Claude Desktop, LibreChat, and other MCP-compatible clients.

How to use MCP Server?

Run the server via Docker using the provided docker-compose.yml, or locally with Python 3.13+ and uv. Set the required SEARXNG_QUERY_URL environment variable pointing to your SearXNG instance. Choose SSE mode (network) for clients like LibreChat or stdio mode for direct connections like Claude Desktop.

Key features of MCP Server

  • Search the web via a SearXNG instance
  • Access websites and convert content to markdown
  • Get raw web content or extract links

FAQ from MCP Server

What tools does the server offer?

Two tools: Search (searches the web via SearXNG) and Web (accesses websites, converts pages to markdown, gets raw content, or extracts links).

How can I run the server?

Recommended method is Docker with docker-compose.yml. Alternatively, run locally using Python 3.13+ and uv with uv sync then mcp-server (stdio) or mcp-server --sse-host 0.0.0.0 --sse-port 3001 (SSE).

How do I connect to the server?

Two modes: network connection via SSE (for LibreChat and other networked clients) or direct connection via stdio (for local testing or Claude Desktop).

What environment variables are required?

SEARXNG_QUERY_URL (URL to your SearXNG instance's Search API) is always required. Optional: SSE_HOST, SSE_PORT, and USER_AGENT.

What are the runtime dependencies?

Docker for the containerized approach, or Python 3.13+ with uv for local runs. A running SearXNG instance is required for search functionality.
