Flexible API Key Requirements
MCP Omnisearch is designed to work with the API keys you have available. You don't need to have keys for all providers - the server will automatically detect which API keys are available and only enable those providers.
For example:
- If you only have a Tavily and Perplexity API key, only those providers will be available
- If you don't have a Kagi API key, Kagi-based services won't be available, but all other providers will work normally
- The server will log which providers are available based on the API keys you've configured
This flexibility makes it easy to get started with just one or two providers and add more as needed.
Configuration
This server requires configuration through your MCP client. Here are examples for different environments:
Cline Configuration
Add this to your Cline MCP settings:
Claude Desktop with WSL Configuration
For WSL environments, add this to your Claude Desktop configuration:
Environment Variables
The server uses API keys for each provider. You don't need keys for all providers - only the providers corresponding to your available API keys will be activated:
TAVILY_API_KEY
: For Tavily SearchPERPLEXITY_API_KEY
: For Perplexity AIKAGI_API_KEY
: For Kagi services (FastGPT, Summarizer, Enrichment)JINA_AI_API_KEY
: For Jina AI services (Reader, Grounding)BRAVE_API_KEY
: For Brave SearchFIRECRAWL_API_KEY
: For Firecrawl services (Scrape, Crawl, Map, Extract, Actions)
You can start with just one or two API keys and add more later as needed. The server will log which providers are available on startup.
