The Brave Search MCP Server is a utility server that enables retrieval capabilities for AI agents through Brave Search API. It supports both general web search and local business lookup with automatic fallback logic. Designed for seamless integration into environments like Claude Desktop, the server runs via Docker or npx with minimal configuration.
Built on top of the Model Context Protocol (MCP), it exposes two endpoints: brave_web_search and brave_local_search, both optimized for AI-friendly search. The server is actively maintained, open-source, and API-compatible.
