Brave Search MCP Server: web results, images, videos, rich results, AI summaries, and more.
Nothing to run from here
Web Research is installed from its publisher's own source and answers where it runs, so this marketplace is not in the path of a single call. There is no address here to send one to, and a panel that pretended otherwise would be showing you an answer we made up. Install it and call it from your own client — the Installation tab has the entry for each one.

What it does
Web search (Brave) and SSRF-safe page fetching, extraction and comparison for agents
Quickstart
# 1 — add it to Claude Code
claude mcp add --scope user opafex-web-research-mcp '--' npx -y @opafex/mcp-web-research
# 2 — ask your agent for something these tools do
# web_search, fetch_webpage, research_topic and 2 more
Web Research costs nothing on mcprush: there is no plan to choose here, no cap to set and nothing mcprush can bill you for.

Installation
Where are you running it?
Every route below installs the same thing and ends at the same approval screen. This one runs on your machine: your client starts Web Research as a process under your own user, with your files and your network, so the tool surface below is what it can do to your computer rather than to a server somewhere else. Its scan result is on the Security tab — read the surface before you approve it.
Claude Codedeclared by this listing
This is a public server: you run it yourself and this marketplace is not in the path. You need Node.js — the current LTS (24) is the safe choice; npx comes with it. Claude Code registers it in one command; --scope user makes it available in every project. The '--' is in quotes so that PowerShell passes it on.
claude mcp add --scope user opafex-web-research-mcp '--' npx -y @opafex/mcp-web-researchReconnect, or start a new session, and the tools appear in the model’s tool list.
Free on mcprush, and it runs from its publisher’s own package: this marketplace is not in the path, so there is no key of ours to hold and no card to add.
What it asks of you
Nothing is required, but it can take BRAVE_SEARCH_API_KEY (Brave Search API key; enables web_search and research_topic (recommended)), WEB_RESEARCH_SEARCH_PROVIDER (Search provider: "brave" or "duckduckgo" (unofficial HTML scraper, explicit opt-in only)), USER_AGENT (User-Agent sent with every request (default identifies the bot and links to the repo)), SEARCH_CACHE_TTL (Search result cache TTL in seconds (default: 900)), PAGE_CACHE_TTL (Fetched page cache TTL in seconds (default: 3600)), FETCH_TIMEOUT_MS (Per-request timeout in milliseconds, across all redirect hops (default: 10000)), MAX_HTML_SIZE (Maximum bytes read from a page body (default: 1000000)) if you want to set them.
What it writes
One config entry your client uses to start the process locally. A local server runs with your file system and your network, which is why it is priced without metering.
What you approve
5 tools, with what each one reads, writes and reaches shown before you agree — the same list on every route above. Read the tool surface.
Tool surface
What the model actually sees. Descriptions are diffed on every release — see version history.
Read from its source code. A server that builds its tool list when it starts can list more tools than this.
Search the web (Brave Search API, or the opt-in DuckDuckGo scraper). Returns an array of results with title, URL, and snippet. Returns an error naming the env var to set if no search provider is configured.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| query | string | yes | Search query string |
| maxResults | number | no | Maximum number of results (1-20, default 10) |
| domain | string | no | Optional domain filter (e.g. "example.com") — restricts results to this domain |
Fetch a URL and extract clean text content. Includes SSRF protection (blocks private IPs, localhost, cloud metadata). Supports extracting text, links, or both.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| url | string | yes | The URL to fetch |
| extractMode | string | no | What to extract: "text" (default), "links", or "all" (text + links) |
| maxLength | number | no | Maximum text length in characters (default 4000) |
Two-stage interpreted search: searches the web for a topic, fetches top results, and compiles a structured summary organized by source. No LLM involved — extracts key sentences and organizes them. Needs a search provider, like web_search.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| topic | string | yes | The topic to research |
| depth | string | no | Research depth: "quick" (3 sources, shorter text), "standard" (5 sources, default), or "deep" (10 sources, more text) |
| maxSources | number | no | Maximum number of sources to fetch and include (1-10, default 5) |
Extract specific data fields from a webpage. Fetches the page and searches for sections matching the requested field names (e.g. "pricing", "features", "contact").
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| url | string | yes | The URL to extract data from |
| fields | array | yes | Fields to extract (e.g. ["pricing", "features", "contact"]) |
Fetch multiple URLs and compare their content. Returns page metadata and a text comparison, optionally focused on a specific aspect.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| urls | array | yes | URLs to compare (2-5 required) |
| focus | string | no | Optional focus area for comparison (e.g. "pricing", "features") |

ATrust score 99 / 100
Release 0.1.0 · scanned 28 Oct 2026
Two independent axes, because powerful and malicious are different questions. The grade is threat only. The capability level is blast radius, and it is never a penalty on the grade — it is priced as one subtract-only term in the score, where you can see it.

score = clamp(round(threatScore − E_cap − E_ver − E_cov), 0, 100). No model, no opinion, no network call at scoring time: the same methodology version against the same bytes always produces this number, and every line above is a field of the report rather than a summary of it.
What the scan could actually read
A grade is only as meaningful as its coverage, so the scanner publishes its own depth before it publishes its result.
Tool surfacenot available
Implementation sourceread
Package metadataread
Live transportnot available
No tools were enumerated, so prompt-injection, capability and toxic-flow analysis had no tool surface to inspect. To grade a package’s real runtime tools, scan the running server: --command "npx -y <package>".
Capability — what it could do if the model were manipulated
Tags derived from each tool’s schema and the implementation, not from what the tool calls itself. minimal is the level these add up to.
| Tool | Capability tags | Why the tag was assigned |
|---|---|---|
| No per-tool rows for this release — see the note below. | ||
No tool surface was enumerated, so there is nothing to attribute a capability to.
Toxic-flow graph
The lethal trifecta, checked as a graph rather than as a checklist: untrusted input, a sensitive source and an external sink have to meet before there is a path worth worrying about.
The public result for this release does not print the flow graph, so there is nothing to show here. That is not the same as "no paths were found": what the scan did read is above, under coverage.

This is the first scan of this surface here, so there is nothing yet to compare it against.
Every result on this tab comes from one deterministic pass over the published package — offline, rule by rule, and auditable line by line above. Same methodology version, same bytes, same score.
Release history
Always latest — the install command names no version, so it installs the newest release when it runs; the current release on file is 0.1.0. Pin a release below and the command asks for exactly that one.

Who can review
One review per account, from a signed-in account that does not publish this listing. Nothing else is asked — you can say what you think before you install it. Publishers can reply once per review, and a review can be edited or deleted by whoever wrote it.
Sign in to write one
Any signed-in account that does not publish Web Research can review it, once — before installing it or after. A review from an account that has installed it is marked as one.
No reviews yet
Nobody has reviewed this listing. The rating on the card is the mean of the reviews written here and nothing else, so there is no rating until somebody writes the first — which takes a signed-in account that does not publish it, and nothing else.
