FAQ from Multi Fetch MCP Server

What is the difference from the original Fetch MCP Server?

This fork replaces direct HTTP fetching with the Firecrawl Python SDK, requiring a Firecrawl API key (FIRECRAWL_API_KEY) instead of using plain HTTP requests.

What dependencies are required?

Requires Python with the mcp-server-multi-fetch and firecrawl-py packages. Optionally, Node.js can be installed for a more robust HTML simplification step.

How do I set up the Firecrawl API key?

Set the FIRECRAWL_API_KEY environment variable to your Firecrawl API key. Optionally, override the API endpoint with FIRECRAWL_API_URL.

Can I configure a proxy?

Yes, use the --proxy-url argument with HTTP, HTTPS, or SOCKS5 proxy URLs (e.g., --proxy-url http://192.168.1.1:8080).

How does robots.txt handling work?

By default, the server obeys a website’s robots.txt for model‑initiated requests (tools) but not for user‑initiated requests (prompts). This can be disabled with the --ignore-robots-txt flag.
