Open Search

This MCP server provides AI assistants with comprehensive web search, academic research, and content extraction capabilities through a free, open-source alternative to paid search APIs, built by Open Search MCP Contributors using TypeScript with dual MCP/HTTP API operation modes. The implementation aggregates multiple search engines (DuckDuckGo, Google, Bing), academic databases (arXiv, PubMed, IEEE), social platforms (Reddit, GitHub), and news sources with intelligent load balancing, health monitoring, and failover mechanisms across distributed Searx clusters. Features advanced PDF processing with OCR support, AI-powered query optimization through local Ollama models (Llama 3.2, Qwen 2.5), semantic search with vector databases, and multi-platform integration for Claude Desktop, Cursor, VSCode, and Windsurf, serving researchers needing comprehensive literature review capabilities, developers requiring real-time technical information gathering, and teams building knowledge-intensive applications without relying on expensive third-party search APIs.

Streamable HTTP transport at https://api.skillsregistry.net/mcp. No auth for read tools. Discovery: .well-known/mcp.json.

One command in your shell — Claude Code wires it up and verifies the connection. Run /mcp in any session to confirm.

claude mcp add --transport http --scope user skillsregistry https://api.skillsregistry.net/mcp

Swap --scope user for --scope project to commit it to .mcp.json.

Your client Same endpoint everywhere; only the config key differs. The full list is in the descriptor.

Claude Desktop · Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector

https://api.skillsregistry.net/mcp

Paste the URL as the connector endpoint. No authentication.

ChatGPT · Settings → Connectors → Create (developer mode) → MCP server URL

https://api.skillsregistry.net/mcp

Authentication: none. Works in chat and deep research — the server exposes the connector search and fetch tools.
