by ilyazub • Search & Retrieval

An MCP server that uses SerpApi to fetch parsed search-engine result pages quickly for MCP clients and agents.

Example Use Cases

1
Fast, parsed search engine results (SERPs) across multiple engines to inform answers or augment context.
2
Query location-aware search results (Google locations) to provide localized recommendations or business info.
3
Integrate web search capabilities into an MCP-enabled client or host (e.g., Claude for Desktop) using a simple tool interface.

Description

This MCP server integrates with SerpApi to perform searches across multiple search engines and return parsed search result pages and location data. It exposes a search tool (with engine, query, and optional parameters) and a locations resource for Google locations, and is designed to be used by MCP hosts/clients like Claude for Desktop. The server is lightweight, easy to run (requires a SerpApi API key), and supports many engines including Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, YouTube, Baidu, and others.
