Common questions

Is Nimrod safe?

It passed 3 of 5 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?

You need to fill in: NIMROD_API_KEY

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

Either way works: install it on your computer or connect to the cloud version.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed 39 days ago, and the latest version (2.1.0) reached the registry 39 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT Business and above.

What can I use instead?

Nimrod

Web research your agent can actually use.

Quality-scored Google search, clean webpage extraction, and deep multi-source research for Claude — over the Model Context Protocol.

Website · Docs · Pricing · Portal

What it is

Nimrod gives Claude four research tools:

Tool	What it does	Cost
`google_search`	Organic Google results with quality scores, authority ratings, and source-type classification	1 credit
`extract_webpage_content`	Any URL → clean markdown, boilerplate stripped	free
`extract_multiple_webpages`	Up to 5 URLs, fetched concurrently	free
`research_topic`	Search → rank → dedupe → extract → synthesis, in one call	1 credit + 1 per focus area

Why not just let the model search? Because raw search is where agent runs go to die: Nimrod returns ranked evidence instead of SEO sludge, as token-efficient markdown instead of raw HTML, with deterministic costs (1 credit = 1 search) and date/site/language control.

New accounts start with a free 50-credit trial — no card required.

Get connected

Claude.ai & Claude Desktop (zero install): Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector → paste https://nimrod.orchis.ai/mcp → sign in with your email. Done.

Claude Code (hosted):

claude mcp add nimrod --transport http https://nimrod.orchis.ai/mcp \

--header "Authorization: Bearer nmk_your_key"

Nimrod Desktop (full toolkit — recommended for power users): a locally installed MCP server with six research skills, a deep-research agent, and search-coach hooks (Claude Code features). Extraction is free on every plan; on Desktop it also runs on your own machine, so the pages you read stay private. Grab it from Releases:

Windows — nimrod.mcpb for Claude Desktop (double-click, paste key), or nimrod-desktop.exe for Claude Code: nimrod-desktop setup, then claude mcp add nimrod -- path\to\nimrod-desktop.exe
macOS — nimrod-desktop-macos (universal: Apple Silicon + Intel): chmod +x it, then a one-time xattr -d com.apple.quarantine nimrod-desktop-macos (not yet Apple-signed), then setup and claude mcp add as above
Linux — nimrod-desktop-linux: chmod +x, setup, claude mcp add

In the MCP Registry

Nimrod is listed in the official MCP Registry as `ai.orchis/nimrod` — MCP clients that browse the registry (including VS Code's MCP gallery) can discover and install it from there.

Built to pair

Run Nimrod beside your other MCP tools — like Konnect for KiCAD: live parts data from your EDA workflow, live web research from Nimrod, one agent, no stale training cutoff.
