Groundhog

Overview

Groundhog is a Model Context Protocol server that enables web search, reading, and research capabilities with hidden text stripped by default and sources hashed for privacy. It integrates directly into AI assistants as callable tools, letting models perform web operations on your behalf.

The server runs locally via the groundhog-mcp Python package, invoked through uvx. It communicates over stdio with no authentication required and works immediately after installation. Version v0.11.0 is available under the MIT license, with source code at dmytrome/groundhog on GitHub.

Groundhog belongs in the AI & Agents category and works with MCP clients including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, and others. If you maintain this project, claim your listing here to verify ownership and keep the information up to date.
