DuckDuckGo

nickclyde/duckduckgo-mcp-server

The DuckDuckGo MCP Server provides web search and content retrieval capabilities through DuckDuckGo's search engine, enabling LLM-based applications to perform internet searches and fetch webpage content. It offers tools for executing web searches with advanced rate limiting, retrieving and parsing webpage text, and configurable safety filters and regional settings. The server solves the problem of integrating privacy-focused web search functionality into Claude and other MCP-compatible AI applications without requiring API keys.
