tor-mcp

Route HTTP requests through the Tor network from any MCP-compatible agent.

What it does

Gives Claude Desktop / Cursor / any MCP client four tools:

Tool

What it does

tor_fetch(url, method?, headers?, body?)

HTTP request through Tor; returns status/headers/body

tor_get_exit_ip()

Current exit node IP + country (verified via check.torproject.org)

tor_new_circuit()

Force a fresh Tor circuit (SIGNAL NEWNYM)

tor_check(url)

HEAD probe — is target reachable through Tor?

Related MCP server: tor-browser-mcp

Honest scope

Tor exit nodes are blocked by Cloudflare on most big-brand sites (Indeed, Google, Amazon, etc.). Use tor-mcp for:

  • Non-Cloudflare sites

  • Geo-hidden fetches (see a site from a random country)

  • .onion services

  • IP-based rate-limit circumvention on APIs that don't blocklist Tor

  • Testing your own site from N different exits

If you need to hit Cloudflare-protected sites, use browser-mcp instead — real Chrome from a fixed Hetzner IP works for most WAFs, and you can layer a residential proxy on top for the rest.

Setup

  1. Sign in with Google at tor.regiq.in

  2. Generate an MCP API key on your dashboard

  3. Add to Claude Desktop / Cursor:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tor": {
      "url": "https://tor.regiq.in/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer <YOUR_KEY>"
      }
    }
  }
}

Limits (per API key, free tier)

  • 100 requests/day

  • 30s timeout per request

  • 10 MB response body cap

  • Methods: GET, POST, HEAD only

Higher quotas for aggregators — email shreyas.pavuluri@gmail.com.

Privacy

  • DNS resolves inside Tor (socks5h:// scheme) — no plaintext lookup from our host

  • We log: target host, method, response status, duration, size

  • We never log: full URLs, query strings, request bodies, response bodies, cookies, headers

  • Standard TorBrowser User-Agent sent by default

Self-host

git clone https://github.com/globalion/tor-mcp
cd tor-mcp
cp .env.example .env  # fill in
docker compose up -d --build

Then browse to http://localhost:3021.
