## Only reads (6)

Looks things up and changes nothing. Claude Code: allow.

### `get`

- The name "get" says "get": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The description's first sentence says "web": it reads web pages, which anyone can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
DuckDuckGo web search: the organic results (url, title, plain and HTML snippet, result types, host, sublinks, date, site name, rating) and the other blocks of the same answer: ads, related searches, the knowledge panel, the AI answer when DuckDuckGo gives it inline, and the news, image and video strips. Blocks DuckDuckGo did not send are empty lists or null. Billing per call: 1 Credits.
```

### `get_autocomplete`

- The name "get_autocomplete" says "get": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
DuckDuckGo's search suggestions for a partial query. Billing per call: 1 Credits.
```

### `get_images`

- The name "get_images" says "get": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The description's first sentence says "url": it reads web pages, which anyone can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
DuckDuckGo Images for a query (title, page url, image, thumbnail, width, height). Up to 100 images a page. Billing per call: 1 Credits.
```

### `get_news`

- The name "get_news" says "get": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The description's first sentence says "url": it reads web pages, which anyone can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
DuckDuckGo News for a query, newest coverage first as DuckDuckGo orders it (title, url, excerpt, source, date, image). About 25 articles a page. Billing per call: 1 Credits.
```

### `get_places`

- The name "get_places" says "get": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The description's first sentence says "website": it reads web pages, which anyone can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
DuckDuckGo's local results (its Places module and Maps tab): businesses and places with category, address, coordinates, phone, website, rating, review count, price level, opening hours, open now, amenities, photos, menu and sample reviews (rating, text, date). DuckDuckGo takes the listings from Tripadvisor or Yelp depending on the area; `source` names it. Name the place in the query ("coffee in berlin germany") or pass latitude and longitude; with neither, DuckDuckGo searches around the address the request leaves from, and a place name several countries share can resolve to the one nearest that address, so add the country. Billing per call: 1 Credits.
```

### `get_videos`

- The name "get_videos" says "get": a word for reading.
- Tag untrusted-input: The description's first sentence says "url": it reads web pages, which anyone can write.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
DuckDuckGo Videos for a query (title, url, description, duration, published, publisher, uploader, views, thumbnail). Up to 60 videos a page. Billing per call: 1 Credits.
```

## Claude Code permissions

For `.claude/settings.json`, assuming the server is installed as `duckduckgo`:

      "mcp__duckduckgo__get_news",
      "mcp__duckduckgo__get_images",
      "mcp__duckduckgo__get_videos",

      "mcp__duckduckgo__get_places"
    ],
    "ask": [],
    "deny": []
  }
}
```

- `mcp__duckduckgo__get_images`: untrusted-input
