Fetches web URLs via `curl -sL` after prepending a configurable server-side prefix, enabling AI applications to route requests through proxies or custom gateways.
The Web URL Reader is an MCP server designed to act as an intelligent intermediary for AI web requests. It exposes a single tool, `read_web_url`, which fetches content from absolute URLs. Uniquely, it prepends a configurable `CUSTOM_PREFIX` to every URL on the server side before executing the fetch using `curl -sL`. This allows AI applications to transparently route their web requests through caching proxies, authentication layers, custom gateways, or monitoring systems, offering enhanced control, security, and performance without requiring changes to the AI's internal URL handling.
