SiftQ + Claude Desktop
Give Claude access to live web search.
Once the SiftQ MCP server is configured in Claude Desktop, Claude can autonomously decide to search the web during any conversation — for papers, documents, images, videos, podcasts, or general web results. No prompt engineering required; the tool description guides Claude to call it appropriately.
