Why ferris-search? Claude Code's built-in web search works great in ideal network conditions — but in practice, many developers run into environments where it's unreliable or unavailable: corporate networks, restricted regions, air-gapped setups, or simply spotty connectivity. While looking for a workaround, I came across open-webSearch, a Node.js MCP server that routes search queries through multiple engines. It solved the problem well. But I have a thing for Rust — and spinning up a Node.js runtime just to proxy a few HTTP requests felt heavier than it needed to be. So I rewrote the same idea in Rust: - No Node.js runtime — single self-contained binary, 8 MB - Lower latency — Rust async I/O, concurrent fan-out across engines - Smaller footprint — negligible memory usage - Proxy support — HTTP/SOCKS5 proxy via env var, for networks that need it If Claude Code's search isn't working in your environment, this is for you. Enterprise & Internal Use ferris-search is also a good foundation for enterprise internal search scenarios. Since it's a standard MCP server written in Rust, you can fork it and add custom search engines that connect to your internal knowledge bases — Confluence, Notion, internal wikis, code repositories, or proprietary document stores. Some ideas: - Add an engine that searches your internal Elasticsearch or OpenSearch cluster - Integrate with your company's Confluence or ","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/lispking","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/lispking/ferris-search/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
