Frequently asked questions
Does this tool bypass Google Captchas normally encountered when scraping?
Yes, completely. SerpApi manages all the proxy rotation securely on its backend, solving the strict bot captchas for you, thereby returning perfectly structured JSON straight to this agent.
Can I search beyond standard Google web results?
Certainly! This MCP module allows access to Google Images, Google News, Google Videos, Google Shopping, Bing, Yandex, Yahoo, Baidu and DuckDuckGo.
How do I ensure search results reflect local or international variations?
You can use the 'list_locations' capability first to identify valid geo-specific markers and then apply them during the standard searches to narrow down local results accurately.
How do I add an MCP server to Claude Code?
Run claude mcp add <name> --transport http "<url>" in your terminal. Claude Code registers the server and discovers all tools immediately.
Can Claude Code run MCP tools in headless mode?
Yes. Claude Code supports non-interactive execution, making it ideal for scripts, cron jobs, and CI/CD pipelines that need MCP tool access.
How do I list all connected MCP servers?
