What is the Google Search MCP Server?

The Google Search MCP Server is a tool based on the Model Context Protocol (MCP) designed to provide real-time web and image search capabilities for AI assistants (such as Claude). It implements the search function through the Google Custom Search API, helping AI assistants obtain the latest information.

How to use the Google Search MCP Server?

You can configure and run the server in just a few steps, and then connect it to an MCP - supported client (such as Claude). The AI assistant will be able to directly call the server for web search and image search.

Use Cases

Suitable for scenarios that require real - time information retrieval, such as news research, data analysis, and creative inspiration collection.

Main Features

Web Search
Conduct real - time web search through the Google Custom Search API to obtain the latest information.
Image Search
Search for related pictures based on keywords, supporting pagination and limiting the search scope.
Advantages
Get the latest information in real - time
Support multiple search types (web and image)
Easy to integrate into existing AI assistant systems
Limitations
The free version of the Google Custom Search API has a daily limit of 100 queries
Support up to 5 requests per second
Each query returns a maximum of 10 results

How to Use
