  3. batch_extract_webpage_content - Batch extract content from multiple webpages

Connect to Claude Desktop

To connect Claude to your local MCP server:

  1. Follow the Anthropic Quick Start Guide
  2. In Claude Desktop, go to Settings > Developer > Edit Config
  3. Replace the existing content with the following configuration:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "google-search": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote",
        "http://localhost:8787/sse"
      ]
    }
  }
}

After launching Claude, a browser window will open allowing you to log in. You can see available tools in the bottom right corner. With appropriate prompts, Claude will call the corresponding tools.

Deploy to Cloudflare

  1. Create a KV namespace: npx wrangler kv namespace create OAUTH_KV
  2. Follow the prompts to add the KV namespace ID to wrangler.jsonc
  3. Set environment variables:
    • GOOGLE_API_KEY - Your Google API key
    • GOOGLE_SEARCH_ENGINE_ID - Your Google Custom Search Engine ID
  4. Deploy: npm run deploy

Connect to Remote MCP Server

After deployment, you can use MCP Inspector to connect to the remote server:

npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector@latest

Enter your Workers URL (e.g., your-worker-name.your-account.workers.dev/sse) as the MCP server address and click "Connect".

Connect Claude Desktop to Remote Server

Update the Claude configuration file to point to your Workers URL:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "google-search": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://your-worker-name.your-account.workers.dev/sse"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues:

  1. Restart Claude
  2. Try connecting to the MCP server directly from the command line: 
    npx mcp-remote http://localhost:8787/sse
  3. Clear the MCP authentication files: 
    rm -rf ~/.mcp-auth
  4. Check console logs for detailed error information
