Overview

AI-generated overview

Refetch is a remote MCP server that lets an assistant fetch web pages as markdown, search the web and news, and extract structured data.

What you can do
Fetch web pages and return them as markdown for reading or summarizing. Search the web and news for current information. Extract structured data from pages for use in downstream tasks.
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs to read live web content, look up recent news, or pull structured facts from pages rather than rely on training data.
Requirements
A remote endpoint at refetch.cloud; no local runtime or package needed. A refetch.cloud API key (starting with ftch_) supplied in the X-API-Key header; a free key is available from the provider's console. Network access is required.
Before you install
The service requires an API key sent in the X-API-Key header, so treat it as a secret. Page content and queries are sent to a third-party service. Fetched web content is untrusted and may contain misleading or injected text.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Refetch in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Connect X-API-Key credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
  3. 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/io.github.lowenbjer%2Frefetch/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.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Tools

This server asks for a credential such as an API key, so SourceWeft could not read its tools without one and has not indexed them.

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.
