Lets an assistant run DuckDuckGo searches and pull web, news, image, video, autocomplete and local-place results through a hosted remote endpoint.
What you can do
Provides six search tools backed by DuckDuckGo: a general web search returning organic results plus ads, related searches, knowledge panel, inline AI answer and news/image/video blocks; dedicated news, image and video searches; query autocomplete suggestions; and local places results with addresses, coordinates, hours, ratings and sample reviews. Results come back as structured fields such as title, URL, snippet, source and date.
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs current web information, recent news coverage, media results, or local business and place lookups without building its own search integration.
Requirements
A remote MCP endpoint reached over streamable HTTP; no packages, environment variables, headers or authentication are declared. Network access to the endpoint is required.
Before you install
Calls are billed in credits (one credit per call for news, images, videos and autocomplete), so usage has a cost. Place listings are sourced from third parties, and results are passed through from DuckDuckGo rather than verified.
Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.
Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.
Use with an agent
Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.
Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/com.jojapi%2Fduckduckgo/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.
DuckDuckGo web search: the organic results (url, title, plain and HTML snippet, result types, host, sublinks, date, site name, rating) and the other blocks of the same answer: ads, related searches, the knowledge panel, the AI answer when DuckDuckGo gives it inline, and the news, image and video strips. Blocks DuckDuckGo did not send are empty lists or null. Billing per call: 1 Credits.
Parametersqrequiredpagetimeregionsafe_search
get_news
News
DuckDuckGo News for a query, newest coverage first as DuckDuckGo orders it (title, url, excerpt, source, date, image). About 25 articles a page. Billing per call: 1 Credits.
Parametersqrequiredpagetimeregionsafe_search
get_images
Images
DuckDuckGo Images for a query (title, page url, image, thumbnail, width, height). Up to 100 images a page. Billing per call: 1 Credits.
DuckDuckGo Videos for a query (title, url, description, duration, published, publisher, uploader, views, thumbnail). Up to 60 videos a page. Billing per call: 1 Credits.
DuckDuckGo's search suggestions for a partial query. Billing per call: 1 Credits.
Parametersqrequiredregion
get_places
Places
DuckDuckGo's local results (its Places module and Maps tab): businesses and places with category, address, coordinates, phone, website, rating, review count, price level, opening hours, open now, amenities, photos, menu and sample reviews (rating, text, date). DuckDuckGo takes the listings from Tripadvisor or Yelp depending on the area; `source` names it. Name the place in the query ("coffee in berlin germany") or pass latitude and longitude; with neither, DuckDuckGo searches around the address the request leaves from, and a place name several countries share can resolve to the one nearest that address, so add the country. Billing per call: 1 Credits.

83% of the applicable checks met
How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
