It passed 1 of 1 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.
The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.
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).

Its 14 tools search open projects by keyword, skill, category and budget, read a project's brief and deadline,
search freelancers and services, and read freelancer profiles with experience and client reviews.

│ MCP over stdio ▼ karlancer-mcp (runs on your machine) │ HTTPS ▼ www.karlancer.com/api/publics/... the JSON the Karlancer web app itself loads
karlancer-mcp calls the same public JSON endpoints the karlancer.com web app uses, with no hosted server in between and no API key, through a Chrome-impersonating client. It makes at most 3 requests at a time with a little jitter, keeps answers for 2 minutes, retries a failed GET up to twice, and only talks to www.karlancer.com. It only reads.
low_competition keeps only projects the site flags as low competition. The filter runs on each page of results, so a page may hold fewer than 24 projects.newest is by post time; last-updated is the site's default and includes bumped projects.Is there a Karlancer API or MCP server?
Karlancer has no documented public API. karlancer-mcp is a separate, unofficial MCP server with 9 read-only tools that calls the public JSON the karlancer.com website loads and returns compact JSON for AI agents.
Does it need an account, API key or Iranian IP?
No. It was tested from an Iranian line and through a Turkish proxy. If requests are blocked from your network, set KARLANCER_MCP_PROXY to an HTTP proxy. System proxy variables are ignored on purpose.
Can it bid on projects for me?
No. It has no login and only reads public data.
| Variable | Default | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
KARLANCER_MCP_PROXY | unset | Optional HTTP proxy URL for the Karlancer requests; system proxy settings are ignored. A comma-separated list is used one at a time: the next proxy takes over when one is blocked or cannot connect |
