MCP server for Google Search using Gemini
MCP server for Google Search using Gemini. That is what the mcp gemini google search mcp server brings to an AI assistant: the same capability, reachable through the Model Context Protocol rather than a separate app or dashboard.
This project is inspired by the GoogleSearch tool from gemini-cli.
The server publishes 1 tool. What each one is for:
google_search — In summary, TypeScript is continuously evolving with new features and improvements aimed at enhancing developer productivity, code quality, andConfiguration is passed through the environment: GEMINI_API_KEY, GEMINI_MODEL, GEMINI_PROVIDER, VERTEX_PROJECT_ID, VERTEX_LOCATION. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.
mcp-gemini-google-search on npm is all you need. Most clients run it directly, so configuration is a few lines and a restart.
This sits in the developer tooling group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. MCP Gemini Google Search's toolset — google_search — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by yukukotani; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.
