Nimrod
Web research your agent can actually use.
Quality-scored Google search, clean webpage extraction, and deep multi-source research for Claude — over the Model Context Protocol.

What it is
Nimrod gives Claude four research tools:
| Tool | What it does | Cost |
|---|---|---|
google_search | Organic Google results with quality scores, authority ratings, and source-type classification | 1 credit |
extract_webpage_content | Any URL → clean markdown, boilerplate stripped | free |
extract_multiple_webpages | Up to 5 URLs, fetched concurrently | free |
research_topic | Search → rank → dedupe → extract → synthesis, in one call | 1 credit + 1 per focus area |
Why not just let the model search? Because raw search is where agent runs go to die: Nimrod returns ranked evidence instead of SEO sludge, as token-efficient markdown instead of raw HTML, with deterministic costs (1 credit = 1 search) and date/site/language control.
New accounts start with a free 50-credit trial — no card required.
Get connected
Claude.ai & Claude Desktop (zero install): Settings → Connectors → Add
custom connector → paste https://nimrod.orchis.ai/mcp → sign in with your
email. Done.
Claude Code (hosted):
claude mcp add nimrod --transport http https://nimrod.orchis.ai/mcp \
--header "Authorization: Bearer nmk_your_key"
Nimrod Desktop (full toolkit — recommended for power users): a locally installed MCP server with six research skills, a deep-research agent, and search-coach hooks (Claude Code features). Extraction is free on every plan; on Desktop it also runs on your own machine, so the pages you read stay private. Grab it from **Releases**:

In the MCP Registry
Nimrod is listed in the official MCP Registry
as ai.orchis/nimrod — MCP clients that browse the registry (including
VS Code's MCP gallery) can discover and install it from there.
Built to pair
Run Nimrod beside your other MCP tools — like Konnect for KiCAD: live parts data from your EDA workflow, live web research from Nimrod, one agent, no stale training cutoff.
