mcp.tc/i/jinalisting.about
Connects an assistant to Jina's Reader, Search, Embeddings and Reranker APIs. It can fetch a web page or PDF as markdown (optionally returning only passages that answer a question), search the web, images, arXiv, SSRN and the Jina blog, take page screenshots, guess a page's publish date, and rerank or deduplicate text.
Runs as a hosted streamable HTTP endpoint at https://mcp.jina.ai/v1. Some tools work without a key at lower rate limits; others, such as web search and reranking, need a Jina API key sent as a Bearer token in the Authorization header. Clients without remote MCP support can use the mcp-remote proxy.

Claude Code
- Run this in a terminal, in your project folder:
claude mcp add --transport http jina https://mcp.jina.ai/v1- Start Claude Code and type
/mcp. jina should show as connected. To sign in for more access, pick it and choose Authenticate.
Add --scope user to make it available in every project, not just this one.
Claude Desktop
- Open Settings → Connectors and click Add custom connector.
- Name it Jina AI and paste this URL:
https://mcp.jina.ai/v1- Click Add, then Connect. Signing in to Jina AI is optional.
Claude Desktop's JSON config file only starts local servers. Remote servers go through Connectors, and connectors you add on claude.ai show up here too.
claude.ai
- Open the connector form on claude.ai. This button fills in the name and URL for you:
- Check that the URL reads
https://mcp.jina.ai/v1and click Add. - Click Connect. Signing in to Jina AI is optional.
Free plans allow one custom connector. On Team and Enterprise plans an owner adds it under Organization settings → Connectors.
ChatGPT
- On chatgpt.com, open Settings → Security and login and turn on Developer mode.
- Go to
chatgpt.com/pluginsand click + to create an app for a remote MCP server. - Paste
https://mcp.jina.ai/v1as the server URL and choose No authentication, or OAuth to sign in to Jina AI for more access.
Developer mode is available on the web for Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise and Education accounts.
Cursor
Or add it by hand to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (all projects) or .cursor/mcp.json (this project):
{
"mcpServers": {
"jina": {
"url": "https://mcp.jina.ai/v1"
}
}
}VS Code
Install in VS Code a11y.new_tab
Or from a terminal:
code --add-mcp '{"name":"jina","type":"http","url":"https://mcp.jina.ai/v1"}'Or commit it to the repo in .vscode/mcp.json:
{
"servers": {
"jina": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://mcp.jina.ai/v1"
}
}
}Devin Desktop
- Add it to
~/.config/devin/mcp_config.json(macOS and Linux) or%APPDATA%\devin\mcp_config.json(Windows):
{
"mcpServers": {
"jina": {
"serverUrl": "https://mcp.jina.ai/v1"
}
}
}- Refresh the MCP server list in Cascade.
Devin Desktop is the new name for Windsurf. It reads serverUrl (or url) for remote servers.
Codex
codex mcp add jina --url https://mcp.jina.ai/v1Or edit ~/.codex/config.toml directly:
[mcp_servers.jina]
url = "https://mcp.jina.ai/v1"Gemini CLI
gemini mcp add --transport http jina https://mcp.jina.ai/v1Then, inside Gemini CLI, run /mcp auth jina to sign in (optional).
This adds it to the current project. Add -s user to use it everywhere.
Any client
Most clients accept this shape. Some name the URL field differently: serverUrl in Devin Desktop, httpUrl in Gemini CLI's settings file.
{
"mcpServers": {
"jina": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://mcp.jina.ai/v1"
}
}
}Zed puts servers under context_servers in its settings. Cline needs "type": "streamableHttp", or it assumes SSE.
Client only starts local servers? Bridge it with npx -y mcp-remote https://mcp.jina.ai/v1.
listing.faq
Can I paste mcp.tc/i/jina into my MCP client?
No. mcp.tc links are pages, not server addresses. Connect with https://mcp.jina.ai/v1, so your client talks to Jina AI directly. The quick link is for sharing: it opens this page, with setup steps for every client.
Does Jina AI need an API key or a sign-in?
Not to start. Jina AI works without signing in and offers sign-in for more access.
Is Jina AI a remote or a local server?
Remote. Jina AI hosts it at https://mcp.jina.ai/v1, and it speaks Streamable HTTP. There's nothing to install.
What can Jina AI do?
It has 12 tools, including primer, guess_datetime_url and capture_screenshot_url. You can read web pages and PDFs as markdown, pull only passages that answer a question from a page and search the web, images, arXiv and SSRN.
Which clients can use it?
Any client that supports remote MCP servers: Claude Code, Claude Desktop, claude.ai, ChatGPT in developer mode, Cursor, VS Code, Devin Desktop, Codex, Gemini CLI, Zed and others. The setup steps cover each one.
Who wrote this page?
mcp.tc's robot read Jina AI's own metadata (its MCP handshake, tool list and public pages), and an AI model drafted the text from it. A person reviews anything the checks can't confirm. The text can still be wrong, so if you spot a mistake, use Report this listing on this page.
