Brave Search MCP Server: web results, images, videos, rich results, AI summaries, and more.
Diese drei werden nie zu einer Punktzahl zusammengefasst: Meinungen, Messungen und Beliebtheit sind verschiedene Dinge.
Für diesen Server haben wir noch keine Zusammenfassung in einfacher Sprache geschrieben. Unten stehen die Fakten, die wir aus der Registry gelesen haben.

An MCP server implementation that integrates the Brave Search API, providing comprehensive search capabilities including web search, local business search, place search, image search, video search, news search, LLM context, and AI-powered summarization. This project supports both STDIO and HTTP transports, with STDIO as the default mode.
To follow established MCP conventions, the server now defaults to STDIO. If you would like to continue using HTTP, you will need to set the BRAVE_MCP_TRANSPORT environment variable to http, or provide the runtime argument --transport http when launching the server.
brave_image_searchVersion 1.x of the MCP server would return base64-encoded image data along with image URLs. This dramatically slowed down the response, as well as consumed unnecessarily context in the session. Version 2.x removes the base64-encoded data, and returns a response object that more closely reflects the original Brave Search API response. The updated output schema is defined in src/tools/images/schemas/output.ts.

BRAVE_API_KEY: Your Brave Search API key (required unless BRAVE_API_KEY_FILE is set)BRAVE_API_KEY_FILE: Path to a file containing your Brave Search API key. When set, this takes precedence over BRAVE_API_KEY. Useful for Docker secrets and similar mounted-secret setups.BRAVE_MCP_TRANSPORT: Transport mode ("http" or "stdio", default: "stdio")BRAVE_MCP_PORT: HTTP server port (default: 8080)BRAVE_MCP_HOST: HTTP server host (default: "127.0.0.1"). Binds to loopback only by default; set to "0.0.0.0" to expose the server on all interfaces (required inside containers and on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore). Only do this on a trusted network, since the HTTP endpoint is unauthenticated.BRAVE_MCP_ALLOWED_ORIGINS: Space- or comma-separated list of additional Origin header values permitted for the HTTP transport. Loopback origins are always allowed; browser requests carrying any other Origin are rejected with HTTP 403 to guard against DNS rebinding. Set this when a browser-based client on a real domain needs access.BRAVE_MCP_ALLOWED_HOSTS: Space- or comma-separated list of hostnames permitted in the Host header of the HTTP transport. Matching is on the hostname
