Description

GPT Researcher MCP Server provides a bridge between AI assistants and web research capabilities, enabling real-time information gathering and report generation. Developed by Assaf Elovic, this implementation leverages the GPT Researcher library to offer tools for conducting deep research, performing quick searches, generating reports, and retrieving source information. The server exposes its functionality through well-defined tools and a resource endpoint that allows direct access to research context without explicit function calls. Built with FastMCP and Python, it includes features like research caching, custom report generation, and comprehensive source tracking, making it ideal for AI assistants that need to access current web information for tasks like answering time-sensitive questions, creating research reports, or providing evidence-based responses.
