Search for words, documents, images, news, maps and text translation using the DuckDuckGo.com search engine.
Search for words, documents, images, news, maps and text translation using the DuckDuckGo.com search engine. Exposed over MCP by the duckduckgo mcp server, that capability becomes something an assistant can invoke while it works, not something you go and do afterwards.
A metasearch library that aggregates results from diverse web search services.
Everything the assistant can do here goes through one of these:
search_text — Web text searchsearch_images — Image searchsearch_news — News searchsearch_videos — Video searchsearch_books — Book searchextract_content — Extract content from a URLEndpoints — The Endpoints tool exposed by this serverSetup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client. The configuration blocks on this page cover the common clients.
This sits in the search and retrieval group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. Duckduckgo's toolset — search_text, search_images, search_news and 4 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by deedy5; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.
