## Description

Research-Llama provides a Brave Search integration through MCP, enabling AI assistants to perform both web and local business searches. The server implements rate limiting to respect Brave API constraints and offers two primary tools: web search for general information queries and local search for finding businesses, restaurants, and other physical locations with detailed information including ratings, hours, and descriptions. Built with FastMCP, it's particularly useful for information retrieval tasks that require up-to-date web content or location-based data.
