Overview
An MCP server that provides comprehensive access to Brave Search API (web, image, video, news, autocomplete, spellcheck) for AI assistants like Claude Code.
Installation
docker-compose up -dSecurity Notes
API keys are handled securely by passing them via HTTP headers (per-request, not stored in container) for runtime functionality, and an optional environment variable for initial usage tracking. No 'eval' or similar dangerous functions are used. The `/test/set-usage` endpoint allows modifying in-memory usage counters for testing, which is acceptable for a locally-run development tool.
