What it does

A search MCP server written in Go that works without any API keys and uses keys only when you add them. It combines general engines such as Bing, DuckDuckGo and Baidu, several hosted MCP search services, and nine academic search sources, then scores, merges and caches results on the local machine. Beyond search it can fetch web pages, parse PDFs and summarise results. It runs either over stdio through an npm shim or as a long-running HTTP daemon with a dashboard and metrics, and the README shows use from Claude Code, Qwen Code or Cursor.
