Unblocked MCP tools are actively evolving. Tools and their descriptions may change over time.
context_get_urls fetches the content behind one or more URLs. Your agent calls it when it already has a link and needs the data at that location. It shares a surface with the unblocked context-get-urls CLI command.
It works with URLs from your connected services, including pull requests, issues, documentation pages, and message threads.
When your agent uses it
- You paste a URL and ask your agent about it, such as a link to an issue with a request to summarize it.
- Your agent finds a URL in results from another tool and needs to follow it, such as a documentation page referenced in a PR discussion.
- Your agent needs the full diff or comments on a specific pull request.
When your agent uses something else
- For any question that isn’t about a known URL — searching records, understanding why code exists, or investigating a broad topic —
context_researchhandles it.
