An example of an MCP Server for use by an AI Agent, designed to allow the AI Agent to search for new external information through SearXNG's open-source meta-search engine.
The mcp-searxng is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that integrates with SearXNG, an open-source meta-search engine, to provide AI agents with the ability to search for external information. This server is particularly useful for businesses that require privacy and security while enabling AI agents to access diverse search results from multiple search engines. By leveraging SearXNG, mcp-searxng combines results from various search engines, overcoming the limitations of individual search engines like Google, DuckDuckGo, and others. The server is built using Python and utilizes SSE (Server-Sent Events) for communication, allowing for a decoupled architecture suitable for cloud-native applications. The server can be self-hosted or run using Docker, providing flexibility in deployment.
