Before you use it. Reference implementation in modelcontextprotocol/servers. Upstream says these servers demonstrate the protocol and are not production-ready. The README warns that this server can access local and internal IP addresses and may expose sensitive data. It can also start Node.js on first use unless you turn that off.

Python package declares MIT in pyproject.toml. The repository root LICENSE also describes a MIT to Apache-2.0 transition, so some files in the wider repo may be Apache-2.0.

Documented install

Questions

What license covers Fetch?

The catalog records this as MIT. Python package declares MIT in pyproject.toml. The repository root LICENSE also describes a MIT to Apache-2.0 transition, so some files in the wider repo may be Apache-2.0.

Is a raw file mirrored here?

No. The license file was missing, or this is a server rather than a single document we republish. Use the source repository.
