Vybsly MCP
MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for Vybsly — the AI-first search API with 26M+ full-content pages, encyclopedia federation, strict-mode filters, and real-time data tools.
Works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, or any MCP-compatible client.
Why Vybsly
Other search APIs return snippets. Vybsly returns up to 30,000 characters of clean, extracted content per result — the full page, ready for RAG and agent context. No scraping, no follow-up fetches.
- 26M+ web pages indexed with full content
- 25M+ encyclopedia articles (federated search via
/knowledge) - Strict mode: enforce research/news/educational domains with allowlists
- Real-time data: stocks, crypto, weather, news, sports odds, maps
- 8× cheaper than Tavily, $9/mo for 10,000 queries
Install
npm install -g vybsly-mcp
Or use directly with npx:
