Requires: GOOGLE_CUSTOM_SEARCH_API_KEY, GOOGLE_CUSTOM_SEARCH_ID, SEARCH_PROVIDER, SEARCH_ROUTING, BRAVE_API_KEY, SERPER_API_KEY, SEARCHAPI_API_KEY, SEARXNG_URL, TAVILY_API_KEY, EXA_API_KEY, XQUIK_API_KEY, EDGAR_CONTACT_EMAIL, COURTLISTENER_API_TOKEN, FRED_API_KEY

Our take

A broad local research server for web, academic, legal, patent, SEC, economic, image, and citation workflows, with provider routing and a DuckDuckGo fallback for zero-key trials. The Go source is substantial and heavily tested, and the README is unusually explicit about citation quality, privacy, and provider tradeoffs. The owner has many awesome-list forks, but I did not find default-branch self-insertion for this server; caveat is packaging complexity, including installer paths that can register with Claude Code when the CLI is present.
