Google Images (via Apify)

by retracnversion 1.0.0i★ –iRuns in the cloud
Registry nameio.github.retracn/google-images

Install

Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Google Images for AI agents: full-size image URLs, sizes and source pages, with filters.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs in the cloud
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP
  • Category: Design, images & audio
  • You need to fill in: Authorization

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on the maker’s server: what you ask it goes through their server.
  • You fill in yourself: Authorization

Values marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

You need

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

This address needs a key in a request header, which the add-connector menu cannot set. Use Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code instead.

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add --transport http google-images 'https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=automationnation/google-images-scraper' --header 'Authorization: Bearer {apify_token}'

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "google-images": {
      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=automationnation/google-images-scraper",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer {apify_token}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "google-images": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=automationnation/google-images-scraper",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer {apify_token}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This address needs a key in a request header, which the add-connector menu cannot set. Use Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code instead.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

Values you fill in

  • Authorization secret required HTTP header
    Your Apify API token, sent as 'Bearer '. Get it at https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations (free account).

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

Common questions

Is Google Images (via Apify) safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: Authorization

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.0) reached the registry 34 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

Google Images Scraper & API: full-size image URLs

Google Images Scraper is an Apify Actor that returns Google Images results for any search: the full-size image URL, width, height and file size, thumbnail, title, source page and site, with filters for size, color, type, time and Creative Commons license, 100 images per search in seconds, at $0.25 per 1,000 images.

Price: $0.25 per 1,000 images ($0.20 on Gold and above) · Run it: https://apify.com/automationnation/google-images-scraper · Guide: https://retracn.github.io/automationnation-actors/google-images-scraper/

Quick facts

  • One row per image: full-size URL, width, height, file size, thumbnail, title, page URL and site.
  • Filters: size, color, type (photo, clip art, line drawing, face, animated), time and usage rights.
  • 100 images per search in seconds, plain HTTP.
  • Monitoring: with Only new results on, a scheduled run returns only images earlier runs didn't, e.g. to spot your products or logo on new sites.
  • Price: $0.25 per 1,000 images; the free $5 monthly credit covers 20,000 images.

FAQ

Is there a Google Images API? Google's Custom Search JSON API is closed to new customers and retires on 1 January 2027, and it returned only 10 images per request. Google Images Scraper on Apify returns up to 100 images per search as data, pay per image.

Can I filter for Creative Commons images? Yes: set Usage rights to Creative Commons. Always check the license on the source page.
