## Web Fetching & Search
**ALWAYS use fetchaller tools instead of WebFetch and WebSearch.** fetchaller has no domain restrictions and produces cleaner output.
- `mcp__fetchaller__fetch(url, maxTokens?, timeout?)` — Fetch any URL → clean markdown
- `mcp__fetchaller__search(query, provider, page?)` — Web search; required provider: `google` (preferred), `ddg`, `brave`, or `all`

|---|---|---|---|
| url | string | required | URL to fetch (http/https) |
| maxTokens | number | 25000 | Max tokens to return |

| method | string | GET | GET or POST |
| headers | object | — | Extra request headers (max 32) |

#### POST
Many search and listing APIs answer only to POST — Getro (which powers a large share of VC portfolio job boards), Algolia, GraphQL gateways. Their pages look static and fetch fine, so a GET-only fetcher reports an empty board on a site that appears to work.
{
"url": "https://api.getro.com/api/v2/collections/246/search/jobs",
"method": "POST",
"headers": { "Accept": "application/json" },
"body": "{\"hitsPerPage\":100,\"page\":0}"
}Content-Type defaults to application/json when the body is valid JSON. A POST skips site-specific handling and the response cache — every site interceptor answers a URL pattern by issuing its own request, which would discard the caller's body, and the cache is keyed by URL alone.
Only GET and POST are accepted. PUT/PATCH/DELETE have no retrieval use; connection and body-framing headers (Host, Content-Length, Transfer-Encoding, …) cannot be set. Credentials (Authorization, Cookie, …) are dropped if a redirect crosses to another host, and a 301/302/303 downgrades a POST to a bodyless GET as browsers do.

search(query, provider, page?)| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| query | string | required | Search query (up to 512 characters) |
| provider | string | required; prefer google | google, ddg, brave, or all |
| page | integer | 1 | Result page: 1-100; DDG alone supports 1-10 |
search({query: "Python asyncio documentation", provider: "google"})
search({query: "Python asyncio documentation", provider: "all", page: 2})Google is the default choice, but provider must be included in every MCP call. A Google failure automatically falls back to DuckDuckGo, then Brave if needed. The output states why Google failed and which provider answered, and every result carries its source. An honest zero-result response does not trigger fallback. Explicit ddg and brave calls use only that provider. all queries all three concurrently and deduplicates URLs, keeping Google ranking first. Beyond page 10, DDG is explicitly skipped in all and Google fallback.
Google returns ten requested results per page through the Google Docs research-search JSON endpoint, using eligible public document IDs as request context; it searches the web, not those documents. No API key, login, browser or Opera Mini profile is used. All verified IDs are indexed in src/fetchaller/search/google_documents.json; each uncached Google request starts with a random healthy ID, avoiding consecutive reuse when alternatives exist. Document-specific failures are logged, cooled down for 15 minutes and skipped within a three-attempt total budget. HTTP 429 respects Retry-After and Google-wide backoff without rotating IDs. Requests across the entire Google pool are spaced at least six seconds apart. Pagination prefers server cursors and otherwise encodes the requested offset as a protobuf varint.
Override the verified pool with FETCHALLER_GOOGLE_DOCUMENT_IDS, a JSON array of eligible IDs. Do not add IDs without validating the search endpoint. See the handoff and verified pool. This legacy endpoint has no established parity with the ordinary Google SERP for ranking, freshness, SafeSearch, geography or time filters.
DuckDuckGo pages by walking its previous Next form, up to page 10; Brave uses a zero-based page offset and returns about twenty results per page. All three engines are paced at least six seconds apart per provider, matching Reddit’s default budget of ten requests per minute. DuckDuckGo and Brave add jitter, serialize HTTP requests, and also enable wafer’s six-second limiter; hidden transport retries are disabled. Their shared provider cooldowns cover explicit calls, all, and fallback: 60 seconds after HTTP 429 and 300 seconds after HTTP 403 (also DDG’s blocking 202), extended by a longer Retry-After. Google retains its escalating global backoff. Complete nonempty successes are cached for five minutes per query, page and provider; fallback and partial failures are retried on the next call. Provider errors always remain visible.
Brave delegates its verification challenge to wafer through the server’s existing guarded browser solver. Recovery uses the published wafer 0.7.9 release, required by fetchaller 3.8.6. The solver allows up to 120 seconds, the complete HTTP call 150 seconds, and the Brave provider 180 seconds including pacing and parsing. A challenge that remains unresolved is reported as a provider failure and starts a cooldown, including a challenge returned with HTTP 200. No challenge solving or cookie manipulation lives in fetchaller. Wafer 0.7.9 includes commit d01c811, which fixes the earlier reload stall and fast-recovery classification race. Real challenged MCP searches returned 20 Brave results on macOS and Linux, and native headed/headless checks verified fresh PoW, spare-token reuse and browser-free restart. Brave consumes token cookies after HTTP reads; wafer can use session-local spare tokens for later gates, with fresh work potentially needed after restart. See the verification record. Google and DuckDuckGo remain browser-free. Allow up to 360 seconds in MCP clients for the complete Google → DDG → Brave fallback chain. See local Brave verification.
Two tools for Reddit research:
browse_reddit - Browse Subreddit Listingsbrowse_reddit({
subreddit: "LocalLLaMA", // without r/ prefix
sort: "hot", // hot, new, top, rising
time: "day", // hour, day, week, month, year, all (for "top" only)
limit: 10 // 1-25
})Returns post titles, scores, comment counts, and URLs. Use fetch to read full posts.
search_reddit - Search Postssearch_reddit({
query: "best mass spectrometry software",
subreddit: "labrats", // optional - limit to subreddit
sort: "relevance", // relevance, hot, top, new, comments
time: "year", // hour, day, week, month, year, all
limit: 10 // 1-25
})Returns matching posts with metadata. Use fetch to read full discussions.
Normal Reddit URLs and emitted links are canonicalized to www.reddit.com. Structured JSON reads use the logged-out api.reddit.com origin and are rendered as compact Markdown; HTML-only legs remain on the fixed New Reddit www origin. /r/{subreddit}/wiki/pages/ first reads the canonical New Reddit SSR page tree, then falls back to New Reddit's own logged-out WikiPageRevisionsV2 page tree on the fixed /svc/shreddit/graphql route when a community does not server-render that tree. Both paths are anonymous: the page index needs no OAuth scope and no browser. For a genuine historical collection URL, fetchaller validates exact collection metadata from its archived New Reddit Redux snapshot and hydrates every archived post ID from Reddit's current /api/info endpoint. Archive shells, mismatched identities, empty collections, and missing current posts are errors rather than successful empty or fabricated output. Thread output includes the public vote score and upvote ratio returned by Reddit, comment count and nested comments, outbound/discussion links, and structured gallery, video, crosspost, poll, NSFW/spoiler/locked/archived, and deleted-content state. Comment permalink URLs preserve the selected comment and its parent context.
old.reddit.com input URLs are canonicalized to New Reddit; no normal request depends on Old Reddit. Explicit .json URLs still return raw JSON. raw=true on a normal Reddit URL returns the canonical New Reddit HTML representation. Embedded author-written Old Reddit links are rewritten to their equivalent www.reddit.com target.
Explicit JSON always remains parseable. When it exceeds maxTokens, fetchaller retains only whole source scalars in a structural prefix and adds the top-level JSON marker "_fetchaller_truncated": true (or a marker object at the end of a top-level array). It never slices a string, substitutes a value, or reports invalid JSON as success; a budget too small for both useful content and the marker returns an explicit error.
fetchaller reads Reddit anonymously only and holds no credential: there is no account, login, OAuth user token, or client ID/secret in fetchaller. Every read is logged out. Its transport, wafer (>=0.7.0), serves JSON reads through Reddit's Android app API on an anonymous install token it mints and caches itself, and HTML through New Reddit's logged-out web path; neither needs a browser. The wiki page index is served by the SSR tree or New Reddit's logged-out page-tree route. Routes Reddit serves only to a logged-in account — exact moderator rosters, and account-private upvoted/downvoted activity — return an explicit error saying so; no names or counts are ever guessed or reconstructed.
Vote data is not reconstructed: score is Reddit's public, fuzzed vote score, and upvote_ratio is displayed only when Reddit returns it. Separate true upvote/downvote counts are not available anonymously and are never invented.
#### Bounded Context Use
The compact renderer requests limits and nesting depth from the caller's token budget, emits complete sections, and names every omitted section. Compactness is never allowed to remove public content silently. Any future size benchmark must ship its corpus, raw outputs, command, and timestamp with the result.
#### Reproducible Live Parity Evidence
baselines/reddit-legacy-contract-v1.json is an independent, versioned inventory derived from the last generic Old Reddit implementation. The offline gate compares that contract with both the production router and baselines/reddit-parity-corpus.json, then exercises route/schema/renderer/MCP fixtures:
uv run pytest -q \
tests/test_reddit_legacy_contract.py \
tests/test_reddit_parity_corpus.py \
tests/test_reddit.pyThe separate live gate runs the corpus through a real stdio MCP server with its six-second default pacing (five-second minimum):
SMOKE_STDIO_COMMAND='["docker","run","--rm","-i","fetchaller-mcp:candidate","python","-m","fetchaller.main"]' \
uv run python scripts/reddit_parity.py \
--strict \
--include-unstable \
--output /tmp/fetchaller-reddit-parityThe runner starts with an empty dedicated wafer-cache directory, keeps it for the warm and recreated-process stages, and records every body (including a failed/challenge body), hash, command, timestamp, and outcome. For an exact docker run command it mounts beneath entrypoint-owned /app/data, aligns the runtime UID/GID with the host, validates a real owner-only Reddit cookie file after warm and recreated stages, records non-secret Reddit cache hydration and pure-HTTP verification counts, and rejects either recreated verification or guarded-browser egress. A conflicting cache/ownership environment or --env-file fails closed. When real OAuth credentials make the two OAuth corpus entries eligible, Docker receives only --env NAME forwarding (never credential values in the command or report); anonymous SSR output never counts as OAuth evidence. Default runs require stable anonymous targets in --strict mode. The complete release gate adds --include-unstable: the runner discovers current real post/comment, wiki-revision, public-multireddit, and live-update IDs through separately recorded MCP calls, then requires every public route cold, warm, and recreated. It never substitutes a fake opaque ID. Fixture-only targets always remain offline and can never become live evidence; they are limited to inherently non-public access states such as private, quarantined, banned, gated, forbidden, and not-found, and to surfaces Reddit itself retired (gilded listings, post collections, the gold-only directory), which are reported exactly as Reddit answers them and never rebuilt from an archive. Every route in the corpus is an anonymous public read and needs no configuration. The live Reddit gates are currently waived on GitHub's hosted runners only: Reddit answers the anonymous solve origin with 403 there, to a real headful Chrome as well as to the HTTP client, which is consistent with datacenter-IP blocking rather than anything request-side. Those runs carry an explicit warning annotation so a green build is never mistaken for validated Reddit, and the offline Reddit contract and fixture gate still runs on every build. Every offline entry must carry a mandatory reason and complete fixture evidence.
browse_reddit and search_reddit each use one JSON call. A normal fetch uses one bounded JSON call for most URLs; a profile root uses five independent public sources for metadata, activity, trophies, multireddits, and moderated communities. Mapped fetch calls and both dedicated tools share the server's request queue. Anonymous reads share a durable wafer session; configured API reads share a separate cookie-isolated application session. Caller-selected raw representations use the generic fetch path and its Reddit domain limiter. Token refreshes and every API request use the same bounded request budget.
get_aliexpress_product(product_id, timeout?) - Product DetailsAccepts a numeric product ID (e.g., 1005006027485365) or full URL. Returns price, specifications, ratings, and recent reviews via AliExpress's MTop API. If MTop is unavailable after a live search, an exact matching validated search listing can supply a clearly labeled, narrower title/price/rating snapshot. The optional timeout is an end-to-end budget from 1 to 180 seconds (default 180).
search_aliexpress(query, page?, sort?, min_price?, max_price?, timeout?) - Search Products| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| query | string | required | Search query |
| page | number | 1 | Page number (1-indexed) |
| sort | string | "default" | default, orders, price_asc, price_desc |
| min_price | number | — | Minimum price filter |
| max_price | number | — | Maximum price filter |
| timeout | integer | 180 | End-to-end budget in seconds (1–300) |
get_alibaba_product(product_id, timeout?) - B2B Product DetailsAccepts a numeric product ID or full URL. Returns tiered pricing, MOQ, lead times, supplier info, and specifications. The optional timeout is an end-to-end budget from 1 to 300 seconds (default 180).
search_alibaba(query, page?, sort?, min_price?, max_price?, timeout?) - Search B2B Products| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| query | string | required | Search query |
| page | number | 1 | Page number (1-indexed) |
| sort | string | "default" | default, price_asc, price_desc |
| min_price | number | — | Minimum price filter (USD) |
| max_price | number | — | Maximum price filter (USD) |
| timeout | integer | 180 | End-to-end budget in seconds (1–300) |
search_marketplace — Search Kijiji, Craigslist, and Facebook MarketplaceSearches all three platforms concurrently with human-readable parameters and returns grouped results.
| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| query | string | required | Search keywords |
| location | string | required | City name (e.g. "toronto", "st catharines, ON", "seattle") |
| platforms | string[] | all | Platforms to search: kijiji, craigslist, facebook |
| category | string | "all" | all, cars, electronics, furniture, clothing, tools, free, bikes, phones, motorcycles, boats, rvs, auto_parts, sporting, toys, baby |
| sort | string | "date" | date, price_asc, price_desc, relevance |
| condition | string | — | new, like_new, good, fair |
| min_price | number | — | Minimum price in dollars |
| max_price | number | — | Maximum price in dollars |
Kijiji is Canada-only and automatically skipped for US locations. Location matching supports exact names, common aliases (e.g. "niagara" → Hamilton CL area), and fuzzy matching for typos.
search_realtor — Search realtor.ca homesSearches Canadian homes for sale or rent via realtor.ca's api2, with the full filter set so an assistant can narrow a home search. Returns listings with price, address, beds/baths, size, agent, and a realtor.ca URL.
| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| location | string | required | City, neighbourhood, or postal code (e.g. "Ottawa", "Orleans, Ottawa", "M5V") |
| transaction | string | "sale" | sale, rent |
| property_type | string | "any" | any, residential, condo, recreational, vacant-land, multi-family, agriculture, parking |
| building_type | string | — | house, duplex, triplex, townhouse, apartment, other |
| min_price | integer | — | Minimum price (sale) or monthly rent |
| max_price | integer | — | Maximum price (sale) or monthly rent |
| min_beds | integer | — | Minimum bedrooms |
| min_baths | integer | — | Minimum bathrooms |
| ownership | string | — | freehold, condo |
| sort | string | "newest" | newest, oldest, price-asc, price-desc |
| page | integer | 1 | Result page (~20 per page, up to 600 returnable) |
Call fetch(url) on any listing URL for the full description, every property detail, and similar nearby homes. fetch also handles realtor.ca search/SEO/map pages (/{prov}/{city}/real-estate, /map) and all wellfound.com pages (startup job search, job detail, company profiles).
fetchaller detects bot challenges and attempts the supported solver. A request is successful only after the resulting content is no longer a challenge or block page; a Playwright navigation that remains blocked is an error, never a successful fetch. First requests can be slower, while later requests can reuse durably cached cookies. The timeout parameter is one total wall-clock budget covering transport retries, queueing, and browser solving.
| Challenge | Method | Speed |
|---|---|---|
| Alibaba Cloud WAF (ACW) | Inline Python solver | ~1ms |
| Alibaba Cloud WAF (TMD) | wafer browser solver | ~5-60s |
| Cloudflare Managed Challenge | Patchright browser solver | ~3-30s |
| Akamai Bot Manager | Patchright browser solver | ~3-15s |
| Amazon rate-limit/CAPTCHA | Inline form parse + follow (no browser) | ~100ms |
| DataDome, PerimeterX, Imperva | Patchright browser solver | ~3-10s |
| Kasada | Browser CT token + Python SHA-256 PoW | ~3-10s |
| GeeTest v4 slide CAPTCHA | CV notch detection + drag replay | ~5-15s |
| hCaptcha | Checkbox auto-pass; image escalation is detect-only | ~5-30s |
| reCAPTCHA v2 / Enterprise | Checkbox → ONNX image grid | ~5-60s |
| F5 Shape, AWS WAF | Patchright browser solver | ~3-15s |
All challenge solving is handled by wafer's BrowserSolver (Patchright-based). Cookies are cached per-domain so subsequent requests skip the challenge.
Arkose/FunCaptcha and hCaptcha image escalation are detect-only and return an explicit challenge error. Vercel and generic-JS handling supports passive JavaScript checks only. An interactive CAPTCHA or any page that still contains the challenge is reported as unresolved.
Docker: The browser-complete image is linux/amd64 because Google does not publish Chrome for Testing for Linux arm64. The build downloads one immutable Chrome-for-Testing archive, verifies its SHA-256 digest and exact version, and sets BROWSER_EXECUTABLE_PATH to that binary. BrowserSolver validates that the configured executable is branded Chrome and warns if its version differs from wafer/wreq's default emulation; browser-bound HTTP identity is aligned to the installed browser, while the pinned image also keeps the TLS shape matched. The local Compose file requests amd64 automatically on Apple Silicon, and the cookie-data volume persists solved cookies across restarts.
Local (stdio): Browser support is included by default, but protected-site solves require installed branded Google Chrome. Set BROWSER_EXECUTABLE_PATH to that executable. Matching wafer's current emulation is recommended so the browser and TLS identities stay aligned; the current Linux reference version and archive checksum are the CHROME_VERSION and CHROME_SHA256 arguments in Dockerfile.
src/fetchaller/content/ handles HTML→markdown conversion. Each site module exports is_<site>(url), SELECTORS_LIST, and optionally strip_<site>_junk(soup) / postprocess_<site>(markdown):

See docs/site-apis.md for endpoints and detection details.src/fetchaller/search/ — Unified Google, DuckDuckGo and Brave search. Google uses the Google Docs JSON endpoint with a randomized healthy document pool, cursor pagination and global throttling backoff. Provider selection, automatic Google fallback, source labels, URL deduplication and a 5-minute cache use separate wafer sessions; Brave alone receives the server’s guarded browser solver for challenge recovery.

docker compose up -dProduction traffic must terminate TLS before reaching the loopback-bound app. Configure the host reverse proxy to forward to 127.0.0.1:6000. If the proxy sets X-Forwarded-For, set TRUSTED_PROXY_IPS to only that proxy's exact address or CIDR; untrusted forwarded headers are ignored.

fetchallerhttps://mcp.fetchaller.com/mcp| Variable | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
HTTP_PORT | 6000 | Server port (1-65535) |
HTTP_STARTUP_TIMEOUT | 180 | Container supervisor deadline for HTTP readiness; expiry exits nonzero so Docker restarts the service |
APP_SHUTDOWN_TIMEOUT | 60 | Grace period after supervisor TERM; a stuck workload is killed and the container exits nonzero |
MCP_API_KEY | (required) | Bearer token for auth |
MCP_SERVER_URL | loopback default outside production Compose | Public HTTPS origin for OAuth; exact loopback HTTP is allowed for local use |
JWT_SECRET | (required with API keys) | Stable signing secret for OAuth tokens — see below |
ALLOW_EPHEMERAL_JWT | 0 | Set to 1 only for local HTTP development without a stable JWT_SECRET |
DATA_DIR | /app/data | Persistent OAuth client and refresh-token state |
ACCESS_TOKEN_TTL | 2592000 | OAuth access-token lifetime in seconds (30 days) |
RATE_LIMIT_REQUESTS | 100 | Requests/minute per IP |
DNS_DOH_FALLBACK | 0 | Set to 1 to re-resolve against public DoH resolvers (1.1.1.1, 8.8.8.8) when the system resolver answers 0.0.0.0/::. Off by default: that answer is usually a blocklist doing its job, and resolving past it overrides local DNS policy and discloses the hostname to a third party. Either way such hosts are reported as a DNS failure, not as a private-host block, so the resolver can be fixed instead. Fallback addresses still face the same private-range checks. |
TRUSTED_PROXY_IPS | — | Comma-separated addresses/CIDRs of reverse proxies whose rightmost X-Forwarded-For value is trusted |
TZ | UTC (container default) | Timezone of the challenge-solving browser. Set it to your server's public IP's zone (e.g. America/Toronto): some sites compare the browser's clock with the IP's location, and wafer logs a warning when the browser runs on UTC. |
MOUSER_API_KEY | — | Mouser Search API key (free registration) |
DIGIKEY_CLIENT_ID | — | DigiKey API client ID (free registration) |
DIGIKEY_CLIENT_SECRET | — | DigiKey API client secret |
OAuth access tokens are stateless JWTs. When MCP_API_KEY is configured, HTTP startup fails if JWT_SECRET is unset. For local HTTP development only, ALLOW_EPHEMERAL_JWT=1 opts into a random per-process secret; every previously issued access token then becomes invalid when the process restarts. Registered clients and hashed refresh tokens persist under DATA_DIR, while short-lived authorization codes remain in memory.
Generate one value and keep it stable for the life of the deployment:
openssl rand -hex 32Pass it to the container the same way as MCP_API_KEY (compose environment:, Unraid template variable, etc.). Verify it landed with printenv | grep JWT_SECRET inside the container — an empty value counts as unset and prevents authenticated HTTP startup.
Two caveats:
persisted rotating refresh tokens, but rotating both the secret and OAuth state un-pairs every connector.
api_key_hash in cleartext,so a derived secret is recoverable from any captured token, allowing forged tokens. Use an independent random value.
Bearer auth with a raw MCP_API_KEY is unaffected by any of this — it is validated against the environment variable directly and survives restarts.
64:ff9b:: + a public host works on IPv6-only networks while 64:ff9b::7f00:1 (loopback) and 64:ff9b::a9fe:a9fe (cloud metadata) stay blocked. Unresolvable hosts fail closed but are reported as a DNS failure, not as a private-host block.fetchaller-mcp/
