What is the Defuddle Fetch MCP Server?

Fetch content from the web, cleaned up nicely for LLMs (using Defuddle).

The short version

A Model Context Protocol server that provides web content fetching capabilities using the Defuddle library. This server enables LLMs to retrieve and process content from web pages, automatically cleaning up the HTML and converting it to clean, readable markdown.

The MCP protocol is a standard for giving AI models access to tools.

Better Content Extraction — Uses Defuddle to remove webpage clutter and extract main content: while keeping things like the page title and key metadata
Flexible Output — Supports both markdown and raw HTML output
Chunked Reading — Supports pagination with start_index and max_length parameters
Rich Metadata — Extracts title, author, publication date, word count, and more
