FAQ from MCP Server
What is the Model Context Protocol (MCP)?
What is the Model Context Protocol (MCP)?
The Model Context Protocol is a specification for how AI models can interact with external tools and resources.
How do I add a custom tool to the MCP Server?
How do I add a custom tool to the MCP Server?
You can add custom tools using either the FastMCP decorator approach or the original architecture, as described in the documentation and examples.
What is SearXNG and why is it used?
What is SearXNG and why is it used?
SearXNG is a privacy-respecting metasearch engine. It's used to provide web search functionality to AI agents through the MCP Server.
How do I configure the SearXNG instance URL?
How do I configure the SearXNG instance URL?
Configure the MCP_SEARXNG__INSTANCE_URL environment variable to point to your SearXNG instance.
What are the two different implementation approaches?
What are the two different implementation approaches?
The FastMCP decorator approach is a simplified method using decorators, while the original architecture offers more flexibility for complex applications but requires more boilerplate code.
