A powerful MCP server for Google search that enables parallel searching with multiple keywords simultaneously.
This project is modified from google-search.
- Parallel Searching: Supports searching with multiple keywords on Google simultaneously, improving search efficiency
- Browser Optimization: Opens multiple tabs in a single browser instance for efficient parallel searching
- Automatic Verification Handling: Intelligently detects CAPTCHA and enables visible browser mode for user verification when needed
- User Behavior Simulation: Simulates real user browsing patterns to reduce the possibility of detection by search engines
- Structured Data: Returns structured search results in JSON format for easy processing and analysis
- Configurable Parameters: Supports various parameter configurations such as search result limits, timeout settings, locale settings, etc.
Run directly with npx:
npx -y g-search-mcp
First time setup - install the required browser by running the following command in your terminal:
npx playwright install chromium
Use the --debug
option to run in debug mode (showing browser window):
npx -y g-search-mcp --debug
Configure this MCP server in Claude Desktop:
MacOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
Windows: %APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

search
- Execute Google searches with multiple keywords and return results- Uses Playwright browser to perform searches
- Supports the following parameters:
queries
: Array of search queries to execute (required parameter)limit
: Maximum number of results to return per query, default is 10timeout
: Page loading timeout in milliseconds, default is 60000 (60 seconds)noSaveState
: Whether to avoid saving browser state, default is falselocale
: Locale setting for search results, default is en-USdebug
: Whether to enable debug mode (showing browser window), overrides the --debug flag in command line
Example usage:
Use the search tool to search for "machine learning" and "artificial intelligence" on Google
Example response:
{
"searches": [
{
"query": "machine learning",
"results": [
{
"title": "What is Machine Learning? | IBM",
"link": "https://www.ibm.com/topics/machine-learning",
"snippet": "Machine learning is a branch of artificial intelligence (AI) and computer science which focuses on the use of data and algorithms to imitate the way that humans learn, gradually improving its accuracy."
},
...

},
{
"query": "artificial intelligence",
"results": [
{
"title": "What is Artificial Intelligence (AI)? | IBM",
"link": "https://www.ibm.com/topics/artificial-intelligence",
"snippet": "Artificial intelligence leverages computers and machines to mimic the problem-solving and decision-making capabilities of the human mind."

Search Result Quantity: For more search results:
Please return the top 20 search results for each keyword
This will set the
limit: 20
parameter. -
Increase Timeout Duration: For slow loading situations:
Please set the page loading timeout to 120 seconds
This will adjust the
timeout
parameter to 120000 milliseconds.
- Change Search Region: Specify a different locale setting:
This will set the
Please use Chinese locale (zh-CN) for searching
locale: "zh-CN"
parameter.
- Dynamic Debug Activation: To display the browser window during a specific search operation:
This sets
Please enable debug mode for this search operation
debug: true
even if the server was started without the--debug
flag.
