What is the Intercept MCP Server?

MCP server with multi-tier fallback chain for fetching web content as clean markdown

The short version

Give your AI the ability to read the web. One command, no API keys required.

What it needs from you

  • Node.js >= 20 - No API keys required for basic use

Recorded tools

  • fetch — Long pages are truncated at maxLength with a notice telling the agent which startIndex continues the content. Structured output reports source, quality, contentLength, truncated, nextStartIndex, and cacheAgeSeconds so ag
  • fetch_batch — Fetch up to 10 URLs in parallel, each through the same handler/fallback chain.
  • research — Search the web and fetch the top results in one call — replaces a search followed by several fetches.
  • search — Uses Brave Search API if BRAVE_API_KEY is set, then SearXNG if SEARXNG_URL is set, then DuckDuckGo as an unreliable last resort. freshness and page are ignored by the DuckDuckGo fallback.
  • extract — Extract specific values from a page as JSON instead of markdown prose — for when you need particular data, not the whole page. Honors per-domain auth and proxies.
