## Description

Google Search MCP Server provides web and image search capabilities through Google's Custom Search API, enabling AI assistants to access current information from the internet. This TypeScript implementation offers two tools: google_web_search for general queries and google_image_search for finding images, both with support for pagination and filtering options. The server includes rate limiting to manage the Google API's free tier constraints (100 queries per day), handles error cases gracefully, and integrates easily with Claude in various environments including Desktop, VSCode, and Cursor. It's particularly valuable for AI assistants that need to retrieve up-to-date information or relevant images without direct internet access.
