What you need

An MCP client that speaks streamable HTTP with custom headers. A HasData API key from the dashboard, free to create. Nothing else. This is a remote server, so the simplest path is a URL and a header, with no browser package to add and no local process to keep up. A stdio-only client can use the @hasdata/duckduckgo-mcp (npm) or hasdata-duckduckgo-mcp (PyPI) launcher instead.

Quick start

The server URL is the same for every client. We run it hands-on in Claude Code and Claude Desktop. The other blocks follow each client's own documented format for a remote server.

Clients with OAuth support can add the same URL as a connector and sign in without putting a key in a config file.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http duckduckgo "https://mcp.hasdata.com/api/mcp?apis=duckduckgo" \
  --header "x-api-key: HASDATA_API_KEY"

Claude Desktop

Settings, then Connectors, then Add custom connector, then paste https://mcp.hasdata.com/api/mcp?apis=duckduckgo and sign in.

For the config-file route, Claude Desktop loads only local (stdio) servers, so it reaches a remote server through a stdio launcher. The @hasdata/duckduckgo-mcp package is that launcher, and it reads the key from the environment. Add this to claudedesktopconfig.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "duckduckgo": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@hasdata/duckduckgo-mcp"],
      "env": { "HASDATA_API_KEY": "YOUR_KEY" }
    }
  }
}

Python instead of Node? Swap the launcher for the PyPI package, which uvx runs without a manual install:

Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
