### Description (declared)

# www-search-mcp

MCP server for **web search**, **HTTP fetch**, **browser fetch** (Playwright), **file download**, **API requests**, and **package search** (PyPI, GitHub).

Optimized for **batching**: every tool accepts lists (multi-query / multi-URL) to reduce round-trips.

## Quick Install

```bash
# Run without installing (recommended)
uvx www-search-mcp

# Or install as a global tool
uv tool install www-search-mcp
```

**VS Code / Cursor config:**
```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "www-search": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["www-search-mcp"]
    }
  }
}
```
