Search & Web
Brave Search
Web and local search grounded in Brave's independent search index, giving agents up-to-date information beyond their training data.

npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/server-brave-searchThe Brave Search server gives an agent access to web and local search results through Brave’s Search API, without routing through another AI vendor’s index.
Why it matters
Models have a training cutoff and no innate awareness of anything after it. A search connector lets an agent verify current information — a library’s latest version, a recent API change, a live status — instead of confidently guessing from stale training data.
Good for
Fact-checking, researching current library versions and APIs before writing code against them, and any task where freshness matters more than the model’s internal knowledge.
