Fetch

Install Fetch

claude mcp add fetch -- npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/server-fetch

Use Fetch with Claude Code

Once the server is on your machine, register it with Claude Code so the agent can call it like any other tool. The general pattern is:

claude mcp add fetch -- <install-command>

After it's registered, run claude and ask anything that requires Fetch. Claude Code will negotiate the MCP handshake and surface the server's tools, prompts, and resources to the model automatically. See our Claude Code MCP guide for environment variables, scope flags, and credential handling.

What this server is for

Fetch sits in the reference servers category. It's officially maintained, which means breaking changes ship through proper releases and there's a real support channel. The full description from the source list:

Web content fetching and conversion for efficient LLM usage

FAQ

Is Fetch free?

Yes — every MCP server in the ClawHire directory is open-source or freely available. Some servers proxy to paid APIs (you supply your own keys), but the server itself is free.

Does it work with Claude Desktop / Cursor / Windsurf?

If a client speaks the Model Context Protocol, it can use this server. The transport (stdio vs SSE vs HTTP) needs to match what the client supports, but the server itself is client-agnostic.
