Let AI install it

Copy this message into a Claude chat. The AI checks your computer, tells you which file it will change, and waits for your OK every time.

Please install the MCP server Researchsearch for Claude on this computer, in this order: 1) Check Node.js with node -v. If it is missing, tell me to install it from https://nodejs.org/en/download; do not install it yourself. 2) Use only this config (already checked by PopNx MCP): { "mcpServers": { "researchsearch": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "-y", "@reneturcios/researchsearch", "mcp" ] } } } 3) Tell me the full path of the file you will change, or the command you will run, and wait for my OK. 4) No key is needed. 5) Do what we agreed, then check that the Researchsearch tools really show up.

This message has no key in it. If a key is needed, the AI will ask you to paste it yourself into the file or the app’s field.

Common questions

Is Researchsearch safe?

It passed 3 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed 15 days ago, and the latest version (0.1.0) reached the registry 15 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js, Docker on your computer.

What can I use instead?

researchsearch

researchsearch is a research desk for the web, powered by the Tavily API. It searches with ranked, content-bearing results (and an optional generated answer), pulls the clean text out of specific pages, crawls a site page by page under limits you set, and maps a site's structure so you can see what is there before you read it. It works from the command line or as an MCP server for agents.

A Tavily API key is required. Put it in the TAVILY_API_KEY environment variable; without it, every operation stops with an error that names the missing variable, before any request is made.

Install

export TAVILY_API_KEY="tvly-..."

npx @reneturcios/researchsearch search "composting basics"

Or run the container image:

docker run -i -e TAVILY_API_KEY="tvly-..." ghcr.io/cloudcorprecords/researchsearch

The container defaults to the MCP server (see below). Pass CLI arguments to use it as a CLI instead.

CLI

# Search; results print as JSON

researchsearch search "composting basics" researchsearch search "rate decision" --topic news --days 3 --max-results 5 --answer

Extract the clean content of one or more pages

researchsearch extract https://example.com/article researchsearch extract https://example.com/a https://example.com/b --depth advanced

Crawl a site from a starting page

researchsearch crawl https://example.com --max-depth 2 --limit 25 researchsearch crawl https://example.com --instructions "Focus on the guides"

Map a site's structure (URLs only, no page content)

researchsearch map https://example.com --max-depth 1 --limit 50

researchsearch --version

Exit codes: 0 on success, 1 when an operation fails (a missing TAVILY_API_KEY, an HTTP error from the service, an unreachable host), 2 for usage errors.

MCP server

One bin serves both faces. The mcp subcommand starts a stdio MCP server:

npx -y @reneturcios/researchsearch mcp

MCP client configuration:

"mcpServers": { "researchsearch": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@reneturcios/researchsearch", "mcp"], "env": { "TAVILY_API_KEY": "tvly-..." } } } }

Tools

Tool	Input	What it returns
`tavily-search`	`query` (string, required), `search_depth`, `topic`, `days`, `max_results`, `include_answer`, `include_raw_content`, `include_domains`, `exclude_domains` (all optional)	Ranked results with content excerpts and scores, plus a generated answer and raw page content when requested.
`tavily-extract`	`urls` (string array, required), `extract_depth`, `include_images`, `query` (optional)	The clean extracted content of each page, with failures reported separately.
`tavily-crawl`	`url` (string, required), `max_depth`, `max_breadth`, `limit`, `instructions`, `extract_depth` (optional)	The pages visited from the starting URL, each with its extracted content.
`tavily-map`	`url` (string, required), `max_depth`, `max_breadth`, `limit`, `instructions` (optional)	The list of URLs reachable from the starting page, without page content.

Each tool is one call to the matching Tavily API endpoint. Only the parameters you set are sent — unset optionals are omitted so the service applies its own defaults — and each response is the service's JSON, passed back unchanged.

Development

npm install

npm run build # tsc -> dist/ npm test # node test runner over test/*.test.ts, no network (fake fetch fixtures) npm run dev # run the CLI from source via tsx
