"Fetching a URL in programming or web development" matching MCP tools:

• upload

  Fast.io

  File upload: streaming (one-shot stream-upload — DEFAULT for unknown/generated content), chunked (create-session → POST /blob → chunk → finalize — only when filesize is known exactly), web URL import, and batch (multi-small-file). Call action='describe' for the full action/param reference. Side effects: finalize/stream/stream-upload/web-import/batch create files and consume storage credits. Same-name uploads to a folder OVERWRITE the existing node in place (preserved as a recoverable version). BINARY: `content` is text-only (writes verbatim UTF-8); for binary use `content_base64` (server-decoded) or POST /blob + `blob_id`. UPLOAD STRATEGY (read top-to-bottom, pick the FIRST that matches): (1) Have a URL? → `web-import` (single call). (2) Have content but DON'T know exact size, OR generating/transforming content first? → `stream-upload` (single call, auto-finalizes, NO filesize required, size auto-detected from the bytes). (3) Have a file with KNOWN exact byte count? → `create-session` + `chunk`(s) + `finalize`. **filesize must match the bytes you actually upload — mismatch causes finalize to fail with code 10522 and you must cancel the session.** (4) Multiple small files (≤4 MB each, ≤200 total) into one folder? → `batch`. DEFAULT to `stream-upload` unless you are sure of the exact byte count. Do NOT guess `filesize` for generated content — use `stream-upload` instead. max_size is a hard ceiling that aborts mid-transfer — always overestimate or omit (server uses plan limit).

• get_filing_source_file_link

  ca-rate-filings

  Returns a short-lived **V4-signed GCS URL** for a single SOURCE file (PDF / XLSM / XLSX / DOC / ZIP) the carrier submitted for a SERFF filing. The link is intended for **display to the end user** — they click it in their browser to download the file. **CRITICAL: DO NOT fetch this URL yourself.** Surface it to the user verbatim and stop. The URL is a signed link for the human's browser, not for the model. Fetching it pulls the entire source file (often tens of MB of PDF / XLSM) into your context window and serves no purpose the user did not already get from seeing the link. Pair with `list_filing_source_files` to discover the file names first, then call this to mint a link. When you respond to the user, include the URL **and the `expires_at` timestamp** so they know how long they have to click — after that the link returns 403 and they'll need to ask for a fresh one. Link properties: direct V4-signed GCS URL, expires after `ttl_seconds` (default 900 = 15 min, capped at 3600). Bypasses Cloud Run entirely. Intended for human clicks, NOT for the model to fetch. Whitelist is dynamic, keyed off the actual contents of the filing's source-files directory — same set `list_filing_source_files` advertises. `file_name` must be a basename (no slashes, no `..`) AND must appear in the listing. Returns `{ serff, file_name, url, expires_at, ttl_seconds, notice }`. The `notice` repeats the don't-fetch directive — include it in your response to the user too.

• earthquake_count

  earthquake-mcp-server

  Count earthquakes matching filters without fetching full records. Use for statistical queries ("how many M5+ earthquakes in 2025?") or to gauge result size before calling earthquake_search. When exceeds_limit is true, the count exceeds 20,000 and a full search would be truncated — narrow filters before fetching. USGS returns the max_allowed cap (20,000); EMSC count endpoint does not return this field (max_allowed will be null). USGS-specific filters (alert_level, min_felt, min_significance) are ignored when source=emsc.

• web_url_reader

  Inferventis MCP Server

  Fetches any public web page and returns clean, readable plain text stripped of HTML, navigation, scripts, advertisements, and boilerplate. Returns the page title, meta description, word count, and main body text ready for analysis or summarisation. Use this tool when an agent needs to read the content of a specific web page or article URL — for example to summarise an article, extract facts from a page, verify a claim by reading the source, or convert a web page into plain text to pass to another tool. Pass article URLs returned by web_news_headlines to this tool to read full article content. Do not use this tool to discover current news headlines — use web_news_headlines instead. Does not execute JavaScript — best suited for standard HTML content pages. Will not work with paywalled, login-protected, or JavaScript-rendered single-page applications.

• shillbot_list_pending_approval

  Swarm Tips — Aggregated AI Agent Activities

  [IN DEVELOPMENT] [READ] (CLIENT-SIDE) List Shillbot tasks awaiting your client review across all of your campaigns. Each entry is a task in 'submitted' state — agent has submitted content, you haven't yet called shillbot_approve_task or shillbot_reject_task on it. Use this to populate a review queue / inbox. Requires a registered wallet (the calling wallet must be the campaign client). Optional `network`: 'mainnet' (default) or 'devnet'.

• upload_media

  SendIt

  FOR CLAUDE DESKTOP ONLY (with filesystem access). For Claude.ai/web: Use create_upload_session instead - it provides a browser upload link. Upload local media to cloud storage, returning a public HTTPS URL. WHEN TO USE: • Instagram, LinkedIn, Threads, X: REQUIRED for local files before calling publish_content • TikTok: NOT NEEDED - pass local path directly to publish_content SUPPORTED FORMATS: • Images: jpg, png, gif, webp (max 10MB) • Videos: mp4, mov, webm (max 100MB) Returns { url: 'https://...' } for use in publish_content mediaUrl parameter.

• global_indicator

  dynamic-feed

  A flagship development statistic from Our World in Data: the latest value for a country plus a short multi-year trend, with full source attribution. ONE source, MANY indicators (breadth) — CO2 per capita, population, fertility, urbanisation, GDP-per-capita (a development stat in PPP, NOT a market price), extreme poverty, R&D spend, Human Development Index, literacy, internet access, electricity access. Distinct from `global_macro` (World Bank): OWID adds the long-run development + climate set. `indicator` = a slug/alias from the curated allowlist (default "co2-emissions-per-capita"; aliases: co2, pop, gdp, hdi, literacy, internet, poverty, fertility, urban, rd) — call indicator="list" for the full menu. `country` = ISO-3 code (AUS, USA, CHN, GBR, IND, …); omit for the World aggregate. Source: Our World in Data (ourworldindata.org) — OWID's processing layer is CC BY 4.0, keyless; every response carries BOTH OWID's attribution AND each underlying producer's citation + licence. Only indicators whose underlying sources are cleared for commercial re-serving (CC BY / CC BY IGO / CC0 / public domain) are served — a fail-closed runtime gate refuses any non-redistributable indicator. Annual-ish statistics, not a live-telemetry feed.

• search

  Website Spec

  Read-only, deterministic full-text search across every spec page. Ranks pages by weighted keyword matches in title, slug, summary, and body, and returns the top results with status, category, canonical URL, Markdown URL, and matching body excerpts. No side effects and no live-web access — it queries an in-memory snapshot bundled at build time, so it returns in well under a millisecond. Use this for keyword/topic lookups when you do NOT already know the slug. Prefer `list_topics` when you want the complete, unranked set of pages matching a category/status filter; prefer `get_topic` when you already know the exact slug.

• switch_dannet_server

  dannet

  Switch between local and remote DanNet servers on the fly. This tool allows you to change the DanNet server endpoint during runtime without restarting the MCP server. Useful for switching between development (local) and production (remote) servers. Args: server: Server to switch to. Options: - "local": Use localhost:3456 (development server) - "remote": Use wordnet.dk (production server) - Custom URL: Any valid URL starting with http:// or https:// Returns: Dict with status information: - status: "success" or "error" - message: Description of the operation - previous_url: The URL that was previously active - current_url: The URL that is now active Example: # Switch to local development server result = switch_dannet_server("local") # Switch to production server result = switch_dannet_server("remote") # Switch to custom server result = switch_dannet_server("https://my-custom-dannet.example.com")

• upload_media

  switch

  Upload one image into the user's Switch library in a single call. Pass `url` (any public https) OR `base64` + `mime`. Switch fetches/decodes it server-side, stores it, and returns a clean public URL plus the new asset id. This is THE way to use a photo the user attached in chat as a reference: pass the returned `url` directly into generate_image's reference_image_urls, OR into generate_video's image_url (image-to-video) or reference_image_urls (reference / omni video). The returned URL is provider-fetchable as-is — no presigned PUT, no curl, no confirm-upload step. Do NOT call get_my_active_references for a chat-attached photo; that strip only holds Studio-managed refs.

• openlibrary_get_cover_url

  openlibrary-mcp-server

  Resolve a cover image URL for a book or author photo. Returns a direct HTTPS URL in the requested size (S/M/L). The Covers API always returns HTTP 200 — missing covers return a 1×1 placeholder GIF, not a 404. URLs can be embedded in markdown as .

• url-encoder

  Microapp

  URL-encode or URL-decode a string. Uses RFC 3986 component encoding (encodeURIComponent semantics).

• propose_booking

  Green Gooding

  Re-validate availability + price for a rental and create a Stripe Checkout URL the user (or the agent itself, if it can pay) can complete to book the product end-to-end. No booking is created until the Stripe payment completes. Use get_quote instead when the human needs to confirm identity / enter delivery details on the web app first.

• fetch_indicator

  Owid

  Fetch tidy long-format data for an Our World in Data indicator by slug (e.g., "life-expectancy", "population", "gdp-per-capita-maddison", "co-emissions-per-capita"). PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH for DEEP-HISTORICAL / LONG-RUN demographics and development data — population back to antiquity, and life expectancy, GDP per capita, literacy, child mortality, fertility from the 1700s–1800s (Maddison, Gapminder, HMD, HYDE sources). Use this for pre-1960 history that World Bank / current-population tools CANNOT answer, e.g. "Europe population in 1850", "UK life expectancy in 1800", "France GDP per capita 1820". Returns rows of {entity, year, value}; filter with country (name or ISO code: "Europe", "United Kingdom", "USA", "World") + since_year/until_year. Browse slugs at ourworldindata.org/charts.

• onyx_fact_check

  onyx-mcp

  Fact-check any claim by fetching real-time web evidence. Returns supporting sources, contradicting sources, a 0-100 confidence score, and a short summary. Use for prediction-market resolvers, news-fact agents, journalist-bot pipelines, or any agent that needs to verify a statement before acting on it. Sub-second latency, no API key on the caller side. Coinbase PROJECT-IDEAS.md explicitly calls for this primitive. (price: $0.05 USDC, tier: premium)

• check_url

  URL Safety Validator MCP

  Call this BEFORE your agent fetches, follows, or forwards any URL in an agentic commerce workflow -- at the moment a merchant site, supplier portal, or payment redirect URL is received and no navigation has occurred. Checks live against Google Web Risk (webrisk.googleapis.com) and Google Safe Browsing (safebrowsing.googleapis.com). Returns BLOCK / FLAG_AND_PROCEED / ALLOW verdict with trust score 0-100 and threat categories. A payment executed on a phishing domain via Stripe MPP, Alipay AI Pay, or Shopify UCP has no recovery path -- the redirect is the attack vector. A DANGEROUS verdict means halt immediately. Returns machine-ready verdict, no further analysis needed.

• discover_opportunities

  Swarm Tips — Aggregated AI Agent Activities

  [IN DEVELOPMENT] [READ] Unified search across earn + spend verticals. Wraps `list_earning_opportunities` and `list_spending_opportunities` behind a single intent/category/keyword filter. Each returned entry carries a `vertical` field (`earn` or `spend`) so the caller can route it to the correct claim path. Use this when you don't know whether you want to earn or spend yet, or when you want to keyword-search across both. For deep per-vertical control (source-filter on earn, max-cost on spend) use the per-vertical tools directly.
