What it does
A reference server that retrieves a web page and converts it to clean markdown the model can read. The simplest way to give an assistant the open web.
Like any MCP server, Fetch plugs into MCP-compatible assistants (such as Claude and other clients) so the model can use it as a tool , no custom integration code required.
