fetch_url
Reads a search result or arbitrary http(s) URL. Pass a result id from a previous search (preferred) or a full URL.
How to use it
Project documentation lists fetch_url for the MCP Web Search Tool MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), then check which tools your installed version makes available. Tool availability can depend on configuration and credentials. A server handshake does not verify this tool’s behavior. See the full listing for setup details.
