{
  "mcpServers": {
    "matiasngf-mcp-fetch": {
      "command": "npx",

        "-y",
        "mcp-fetch"
      ]
    }
  }
}

You deploy and use an MCP server that offers HTTP requests, GraphQL queries, WebSocket management, and browser automation through Puppeteer. This server lets you integrate diverse data sources and automation capabilities into your workflow with a single, consistent interface.

How to use

You interact with the MCP server from your client to perform HTTP requests, run GraphQL operations, manage WebSocket connections, and automate browser tasks. Use these capabilities to integrate external services, explore APIs, or automate browser workflows within your applications. Each tool is designed to be invoked with a clear action or operation, returning structured results you can use immediately in your code.

How to install

Prerequisites you should have before installing: Node.js and npm or npx available on your system.

# Install the MCP fetch package
npm install mcp-fetch

Configure the MCP server to use the local stdio-based MCP fetch server by adding the following configuration to your MCP settings.

{
  "mcp-fetch": {
    "type": "stdio",
    "command": "npx",
    "args": [
      "-y",
      "mcp-fetch"
    ]
  }
}

If you need the Puppeteer Chrome browser to be available for browser automation, install Chrome via Puppeteer when required.

npx puppeteer browsers install chrome
