Cloak Search

A 100% local, anti-bot-resilient web search Model Context Protocol (MCP) server utilizing cloakbrowser (a stealth Chromium automation tool).

Features

• Dual Search Engines: Search Google (default) or DuckDuckGo.
• Stealth Interaction: Google searches simulate natural human behavior (typing speed, keyboard navigation, and viewport configurations) to completely bypass CAPTCHAs and bot blocks.
• Self-Healing Fallback: Automatically switches to DuckDuckGo if Google blocks requests, ensuring 100% reliable results.
• Zero API Keys: Free, local, and private scraping.

Quick Start (No Installation Needed)

You can run this server directly via npx in your MCP client configurations.

(On first execution, cloakbrowser will automatically download its stealth Chromium binary ~535 MB in the background).

1. Cursor Setup

1. Register the MCP server in Settings -> Features -> MCP:

   • Name: cloak-search-mcp
   • Type: command
   • Command: npx -y cloak-search-mcp

2. To route Cursor to your local LLM:

   • Go to Settings -> Models.
   • Under OpenAI API Key, enter a dummy key (e.g., sk-no-key-required).
   • Click Configure and set Override Base URL to:
     • Llama.cpp: http://localhost:8080/v1
     • Ollama: http://localhost:11434/v1
   • Add your local model name (e.g., default_model or llama3) and disable Cursor's default cloud models.

2. Copilot CLI Setup

1. Set environment variables to route Copilot CLI to your local LLM:

   • PowerShell (Llama.cpp):

     $env:COPILOT_PROVIDER_BASE_URL="http://127.0.0.1:8080"
     $env:COPILOT_OFFLINE="true"
     $env:COPILOT_MODEL="default_model"
     

   • PowerShell (Ollama):

     $env:COPILOT_PROVIDER_BASE_URL="http://127.0.0.1:11434/v1"
     $env:COPILOT_OFFLINE="true"
     $env:COPILOT_MODEL="llama3" # Replace with your loaded Ollama model
     

   • Bash (Llama.cpp):

     export COPILOT_PROVIDER_BASE_URL="http://127.0.0.1:8080"
     export COPILOT_OFFLINE="true"
     export COPILOT_MODEL="default_model"
     

   • Bash (Ollama):

     export COPILOT_PROVIDER_BASE_URL="http://127.0.0.1:11434/v1"
     export COPILOT_OFFLINE="true"
     export COPILOT_MODEL="llama3" # Replace with your loaded Ollama model
     

2. Register the MCP server with Copilot CLI:

   copilot mcp add cloak-search-mcp -- npx -y cloak-search-mcp
   

3. Claude CLI Setup

If running a local Claude CLI session against your local model, set the following environment variables:

• PowerShell (Llama.cpp):

  $env:ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL="http://127.0.0.1:8080"
  $env:ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN="sk-no-key-required"
  $env:ANTHROPIC_MODEL="default_model"
  

• PowerShell (Ollama):

  $env:ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL="http://127.0.0.1:11434/v1"
  $env:ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN="sk-no-key-required"
  $env:ANTHROPIC_MODEL="llama3" # Replace with your loaded Ollama model
  

• Bash (Llama.cpp):

  export ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL="http://127.0.0.1:8080"
  export ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN="sk-no-key-required"
  export ANTHROPIC_MODEL="default_model"
  

• Bash (Ollama):

  export ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL="http://127.0.0.1:11434/v1"
  export ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN="sk-no-key-required"
  export ANTHROPIC_MODEL="llama3" # Replace with your loaded Ollama model
