A MCP server which can write report using gpt-researcher.
If you already use Gpt, the gpt mcp server is the piece that lets your assistant work with it directly. A MCP server which can write report using gpt-researcher.
This project, gpt-researcher-mcp, is a wrapper extension built on top of the open-source project gpt-researcher. The original gpt-researcher was developed by Assaf Elovic, and I am not the original author.
The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:
Token — --token or UV_PUBLISH_TOKENDebugging — Since MCP servers run over stdio, debugging can be challenging. For the best debugging experience, we strongly recommend using the [MCPInstallation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at @modelcontextprotocol/inspector on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.
Configuration is passed through the environment: GOOGLE_API_KEY, FAST_LLM, SMART_LLM, STRATEGIC_LLM, EMBEDDING, TAVILY_API_KEY, UV_PUBLISH_TOKEN. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.
Among the developer tooling options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. Gpt's toolset — Token, Debugging — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by markchiang; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.
