A MCP server for gpt-researcher
This is just a MCP wrapper for 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.
gpt-researcher is an automated research assistant that performs web searches, summarizes information, and generates structured reports based on a given query. This wrapper (gpt-researcher-mcp) is designed to make the original tool more suitable for integration into MCP or similar workflows.
Quickstart
Install
Claude Desktop
On MacOS: ~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
On Windows: %APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

Development
To prepare the package for distribution:
- Sync dependencies and update lockfile:
uv sync
- Build package distributions:
uv build
This will create source and wheel distributions in the dist/ directory.
- Publish to PyPI:
uv publish
Note: You'll need to set PyPI credentials via environment variables or command flags:
- Token:
--tokenorUV_PUBLISH_TOKEN - Or username/password:
--username/UV_PUBLISH_USERNAMEand--password/UV_PUBLISH_PASSWORD
Debugging
Since MCP servers run over stdio, debugging can be challenging. For the best debugging experience, we strongly recommend using the MCP Inspector.
You can launch the MCP Inspector via npm with this command:
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector uv run gpt-researcher-mcp
Upon launching, the Inspector will display a URL that you can access in your browser to begin debugging.
