Overview

The MCP Server is a tool created in Go that allows users to fetch webpage content using the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and the curl utility.

To use the MCP Server, you need to build it using Docker and then run it with a configuration file for mcphost. You can request webpage content by providing a URL.

  • Fetches webpage content using curl - Simple implementation in Go - Dockerized for easy deployment
  1. Retrieving content from web pages for analysis.
  2. Integrating with LLMs to enhance their capabilities.
  3. Serving as a backend tool for applications needing web data.

Use these steps to connect Creating an MCP Server in Go and Serving it with Docker in Cursor, Claude, VS Code, and other MCP-compatible apps. The same JSON appears in the Use with menu above for one-click copy.

Cursor

Add this to your .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root, then restart Cursor.

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "05-make-your-mcp-server-ollama-tlms-golang": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-05-make-your-mcp-server-ollama-tlms-golang"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop

Add this server entry to the mcpServers object in your Claude Desktop config, then restart the app.

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "05-make-your-mcp-server-ollama-tlms-golang": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-05-make-your-mcp-server-ollama-tlms-golang"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

Add this to your project's .mcp.json file. Claude Code will detect it automatically.

.mcp.json (project root)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "05-make-your-mcp-server-ollama-tlms-golang": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-05-make-your-mcp-server-ollama-tlms-golang"
      ]
    }
  }
}

VS Code (Copilot)

Add this to your .vscode/mcp.json file. Requires the GitHub Copilot extension with MCP support enabled.

.vscode/mcp.json

{
  "servers": {
    "05-make-your-mcp-server-ollama-tlms-golang": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-05-make-your-mcp-server-ollama-tlms-golang"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Add this to your Windsurf MCP config file, then restart Windsurf.

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "05-make-your-mcp-server-ollama-tlms-golang": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-05-make-your-mcp-server-ollama-tlms-golang"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Cline

Open Cline settings, navigate to MCP Servers, and add this server configuration.

Cline MCP Settings (via UI)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "05-make-your-mcp-server-ollama-tlms-golang": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-05-make-your-mcp-server-ollama-tlms-golang"
      ]
    }
  }
}
