What's New

Python SDK — first-class uvx / uv / pip support

Use the server from Python without writing any boilerplate:

# Run via uvx (no install)
uvx web-researcher-mcp

# Install for scripting
pip install web-researcher-mcp
uv add web-researcher-mcp
from web_researcher_mcp import WebResearcherClient

async with WebResearcherClient.from_stdio() as client:
    results = await client.web_search(query="AI safety research 2025")
    citation = await client.verify_citation(doi="10.1038/nature12968")

See docs/PYTHON_CLIENT.md for the full API reference and the Colab notebook for interactive examples.

SDK design

  • Generated, not hand-written — make gen-python-client emits client.py + models.py directly from live Go schemas; a CI drift gate fails if they fall out of sync
  • ~90 typed model classes — every tool request/response is fully typed with dataclass models
  • Async-first, sync facade — WebResearcherClient (async) + SyncWebResearcherClient for scripts
  • Minimal dependencies — stdlib only at runtime (asyncio, json, subprocess); no third-party packages required
  • 7 platform wheels — macOS (x86_64 + arm64), Linux glibc/musl (x86_64 + arm64), Windows (x86_64); each bundles the signed/notarized Go binary

Documentation accuracy sweep

  • Removed stale metrics (download counts, star counts, line counts) that drifted from reality
  • Fixed provider capability claims across all docs to match code (HackerNews web-only; USPTO US-only; nil/nil vs error for unsupported sub-capabilities)
  • SDK references updated to official modelcontextprotocol/go-sdk throughout
  • Removed dead SEARCH_FALLBACK_PROVIDER env var (never wired into routing logic) from config, .env.example, and .mcp.json
  • Corrected scraper tier descriptions, error taxonomy ordering, and auth-error pattern strings to match actual code
