Open-source MCP Server thay thế Tavily - Web search, extract, crawl với SearXNG

Project description

WET - Web ExTract MCP Server

Open-source MCP Server for web scraping & multimodal extraction.

PyPI License: MIT

Features

  • Web Search - Search via SearXNG (metasearch: Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, Brave)
  • Content Extract - Extract clean content (Markdown/Text)
  • Deep Crawl - Crawl multiple pages from a root URL with depth control
  • Site Map - Discover website URL structure
  • Media - List and download images, videos, audio files
  • Anti-bot - Stealth mode bypasses Cloudflare, Medium, LinkedIn, Twitter

Quick Start

Prerequisites

  • Docker running (for SearXNG auto-management)
  • Python 3.13+ (or use uvx)

Add to mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "wet": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["wet-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

That's it! On first run:

  1. Automatically installs Playwright chromium
  2. Automatically pulls SearXNG Docker image
  3. Starts wet-searxng container
  4. Runs the MCP server

Without uvx

pip install wet-mcp
wet-mcp
