Overview

ResearchMCP is a research tool that combines Model Context Protocol (MCP) and Brave Search to provide research functionality similar to ChatGPT's DeepResearch.

To use ResearchMCP, set up the environment by installing Deno, cloning the repository, and configuring the necessary environment variables. You can run the application locally or in a Docker container.

  • Integration with Brave Search for enhanced research capabilities - Support for both local and Docker-based development environments - Hybrid development approach allowing flexibility in coding and testing
  1. Conducting in-depth research using the enhanced analysis endpoint.
  2. Utilizing the standard MCP endpoint for basic search functionalities.
  3. Analyzing and summarizing search results with Claude API integration.

Add to your AI client

Use these steps to connect ResearchMCP 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": {
    "researchmcp-riii111": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-researchmcp-riii111"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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": {
    "researchmcp-riii111": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-researchmcp-riii111"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

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

.mcp.json (project root)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "researchmcp-riii111": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-researchmcp-riii111"
      ]
    }
  }
}

VS Code (Copilot)

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

.vscode/mcp.json

{
  "servers": {
    "researchmcp-riii111": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-researchmcp-riii111"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

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

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "researchmcp-riii111": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-researchmcp-riii111"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Cline

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

Cline MCP Settings (via UI)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "researchmcp-riii111": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-researchmcp-riii111"
      ]
    }
