Brave Search MCP Server: web results, images, videos, rich results, AI summaries, and more.

Install

claude mcp add brave-search-mcp-server -- npx -y @brave/[email protected]

Requires: BRAVE_API_KEY

Our take

Brave's official search MCP is a broad, practical wrapper over the Brave Search API: web, news, images, video, local/place search, LLM context, and summarization are all exposed as separate tools. It is API-key gated, with some richer features tied to Brave Search paid/Pro plans, but the repo, package, server metadata, and npm mcpName all line up cleanly. A strong default search option if you already want Brave's index rather than a scraper-based search server.
