You deploy and run a Claude-powered web search MCP server that lets language models fetch up-to-date information from the web through a standardized interface. It supports Claude’s web search capabilities, domain filtering, and configurable results, making it easy to integrate live web data into conversations and tools.

How to use

You interact with the Claude Web Search MCP server through an MCP client or the Claude Desktop app. Enable the server, provide your Anthropic API key, and then issue web search requests from your conversations. The server handles query routing to Claude’s web search API, applies allowed and blocked domain filters, and returns a concise set of results for the LLM to reference during chats.

How to install

Prerequisites you need before installation:

node.js 18 or higher

- npm install
- npm run build
- npm link

Additional notes

The server exposes a single MCP endpoint implemented as a standard stdio MCP server. You run it locally and expose the command to your MCP ecosystem, and you provide your API key via an environment variable.
