bing-cn

This MCP server provides two tools to let an AI assistant fetch real-time Chinese Bing search results and extract webpage content. The bing_search tool queries the Chinese Bing search engine and returns a list of results with titles, links, and summaries. The crawl_webpage tool fetches a given URL and returns the page title and cleaned, readable text, skipping blacklisted sites. In practice, you can instruct the AI to use bing_search for queries such as tech tutorials or latest news, and then optionally call crawl_webpage on specific links to pull detailed content. The server is designed to work without API keys and emphasizes Chinese-language results, with built-in filtering for inaccessible sites. To use it, configure Claude Desktop (or your MCP-enabled client) to run the bing-cn-mcp server via npx as shown in the installation notes, then prompt the AI to perform searches or page crawls as needed.

Prerequisites:

• Node.js (recommended 18.x or newer) with npx available in your environment.
• Access to the MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop) that can load external MCP servers.

Installation steps:

1. Ensure Node.js is installed. Verify with: node -v npm -v

2. Add the MCP server to your client configuration. If you are using Claude Desktop, edit the Claude MCP config file and add:

   { "mcpServers": { "bing-search": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "bing-cn-mcp"] } } }

   If you are on Windows, you may need the alternative form:

   { "mcpServers": { "bing-search": { "command": "cmd", "args": ["/c", "npx", "-y", "bing-cn-mcp"] } } }

3. Save the configuration and restart Claude Desktop (fully quit and reopen).

4. Start using the tools by prompting the AI to call bing_search or crawl_webpage as needed, e.g.:

   • For search: use bing_search with { "query": "TypeScript 教程" }
   • For page crawl: use crawl_webpage with { "url": "https://example.com/article" }

Tips and caveats:

• No API key is required; the server relies on the public Bing Chinese search engine. Ensure cn.bing.com is accessible from your network.
• If searches return empty results, try different keywords or check for network connectivity issues.
• Some sites are on a blacklist (e.g., zhihu.com, xiaohongshu.com, weibo.com, weixin.qq.com, douyin.com, tiktok.com, bilibili.com, csdn.net) and will be skipped when crawling content.
• If Claude Desktop does not trigger the tool, verify the MCP config JSON format and ensure a full application restart.
• Respect rate limits: avoid excessively frequent searches; add reasonable delays between queries to prevent temporary blocks.
