MCP server fetch installation

Installation
Run this command in your terminal to add the MCP server to Claude Code.
Run in terminal:
Command
claude mcp add --transport stdio terrib1e-mcp-server-fetch npm start

How to use

This MCP server is a fetch-oriented MCP service intended to provide endpoints and tooling for retrieving MCP resources on demand. After starting the server, you can query its fetch capabilities via the exposed HTTP endpoints (as implemented by the project). Typical usage includes requesting specific MCP manifests, resources, or metadata that the server exposes for downstream tooling, testing, or integration with other MCP tooling. The server is designed to run as a Node.js application, managed by npm scripts, and will listen on the configured port (refer to the project’s environment or default port in the source if you need to change it).

Once running, consult the available fetch endpoints to understand what data can be retrieved, and how to pass parameters (such as IDs, version numbers, or filters) to tailor the fetch results to your needs. If there are authentication or rate-limiting mechanisms, those will be documented in the repository or the runtime logs; ensure you supply any required credentials or tokens before making requests.

How to install

Prerequisites:

  • Node.js installed on your system (recommended LTS version)
  • NPM (comes with Node.js)
  • Git (optional, for cloning the repository)

Installation steps:

  1. Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/terrib1e-mcp/terrib1e-mcp-server-fetch.git cd terrib1e-mcp-server-fetch

  2. Install dependencies: npm install

  3. Start the server: npm start

  4. Verify the server is running (default log output should indicate readiness) and begin using the fetch endpoints as documented in the repository (or by checking the runtime API documentation if provided).

Additional notes

Notes and tips:

  • If the server requires specific environment variables (e.g., API keys or ports), set them before starting the server, e.g., PORT=4000 or API_KEY=your-key. These should be documented in a .env file or in the README.
  • If npm start fails due to missing dependencies, re-run npm install and ensure your Node.js version matches the project’s requirements.
  • Check logs for endpoint deprecations or rate-limit messages; adjust client requests accordingly.
  • If you modify configuration (ports, endpoints), ensure firewall rules or reverse proxies allow traffic to the selected port.
  • For troubleshooting, ensure you’re on the correct branch or tag that corresponds to the intended MCP server version.
