FAQ from Developer Research MCP Server

What tools does this server provide?

It provides one tool: search_web, which performs a web search and returns results in a structured JSON format.

What parameters does the search_web tool accept?

It accepts a required query string, an optional num_results (1–10, default 5), and an optional focus (values: "technical", "development", or "general", default "technical").

How do I add a new research provider?

The modular architecture allows adding providers by implementing a common interface; each provider becomes a distinct module independent of others.

What environment variables are required?

OPENROUTER_API_KEY is required for the OpenRouter provider. OPENROUTER_API_URL is optional and defaults to https://openrouter.ai/api/v1.

How is the server installed and configured?

Clone the repo, run npm install and npm build, create a .env file with your API key, then point the client (e.g., Roo Code) to the built index.js with the environment loaded.
