Jina AI MCP Tools
A small, unofficial MCP server built on Jina AI's Reader and Search APIs that gives a coding agent exactly two tools: finding a short list of relevant web pages and reading the ones that matter.
jina-mcp-tools is deliberately limited to two capabilities rather than exposing Jina AI's full range of services: searching the web for a small set of relevant results, and reading specific pages one at a time. The project's stated reasoning is that MCP tool definitions enter an agent's context before real work begins, and a broad tool catalog can cost more context and attention than it is worth for the narrow, repeated task of everyday coding research.
It explicitly omits embeddings, screenshotting, image search, classification, reranking and PDF handling, and supports explicit token-based pagination with an LRU cache for large pages. It is described as complementary to, rather than a replacement for, Jina AI's own official MCP server and CLI, which expose a broader Jina tool catalog for hosted access, research tools, images, PDFs, embeddings and reranking.
It is written in TypeScript and released under the MIT license, and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Jina AI.
