Because raw search is where agent runs go to die: Nimrod returns **ranked evidence instead of SEO sludge**, as **token-efficient markdown instead of raw HTML**, with deterministic costs (1 credit = 1 search) and date/site/language control. New accounts start with a **free 50-credit trial** — no card required. ## Get connected **Claude.ai & Claude Desktop (zero install):** Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector → paste `https://nimrod.orchis.ai/mcp` → sign in with your email. Done. **Claude Code (hosted):** ```bash claude mcp add nimrod --transport http https://nimrod.orchis.ai/mcp \ --header "Authorization: Bearer nmk_your_key" ``` **Nimrod Desktop (full toolkit — recommended for power users):** a locally installed MCP server with six research skills, a deep-research agent, and search-coach hooks (Claude Code features). Extraction is free on every plan; on Desktop it also runs on your own machine, so the pages you read stay private. Grab it from [**Releases**](../../releases): - **Windows** — `nimrod.mcpb` for Claude Desktop (double-click, paste key), or `nimrod-desktop.exe` for Claude Code: `nimrod-desktop setup`, then `claude mcp add nimrod -- path\to\nimrod-desktop.exe` - **macOS** — `nimrod-desktop-macos` (universal: Apple Silicon + Intel): `chmod +x` it, then a one-time `xattr -d com.apple.quarantine nimrod-desktop-macos` (not yet Apple-signed), then `setup` and `claude mcp add` as above - **Linux** — `nimrod-desktop-linux`: `chmod +x`, `setup`, `claude mcp add` ## In the MCP Registry Nimrod is listed in the [official MCP Registry](https://registry.modelcontextprotocol.io) as **`ai.orchis/nimrod`** — MCP clients that browse the registry (including VS Code's MCP gallery) can discover and install it from there. ## Built to pair Run Nimrod beside your other MCP tools — like [Konnect](https://github.com/mixelpixx/Konnect) for KiCAD: live parts data from your EDA workflow, live web research from Nimrod, one agent, no stale training cutoff. ## Support Docs: [nimrod.orchis.ai/docs.html](https://nimrod.orchis.ai/docs.html) · Email: [admin@orchis.ai](mailto:admin@orchis.ai) · [Terms](https://nimrod.orchis.ai/terms.html) · [Privacy](https://nimrod.orchis.ai/privacy.html) --- _{The original open-source BYOK server this project grew from is preserved on the <code>historical-oss</code> branch (unmaintained).}
