Overview
Provides web search and content fetching capabilities using DuckDuckGo, with results formatted for consumption by large language models.
Installation
uvx duckduckgo-mcp-serverSecurity Notes
The server fetches content from arbitrary URLs provided by the LLM via the `fetch_content` tool. While this is its intended functionality, it could be misused by a malicious LLM or user to target internal network resources if the server is deployed in a sensitive environment, or to contribute to DDoSing if abused at scale. No obvious code vulnerabilities (e.g., 'eval', hardcoded secrets) were found.
