Why this repo was selected
meilisearch-mcp is an active Python MCP server with a small codebase, recent updates, a clear tool-registration surface, and a natural place for an optional web-search helper. Adding You.com as an opt-in MCP tool gives agents a way to gather fresh external context before or alongside Meilisearch queries without changing the default behavior.
Candidate evaluation summary
- meilisearch/meilisearch-mcp: selected, 193 stars, active, Python, MIT, clean MCP surface, small additive change.
- yoloshii/ClawMem: active and agent-focused, but the project is intentionally local-first and no-cloud, so a hosted search integration is a weaker fit.
- ozgurcd/gograph: active and under the star limit, but the static-analysis focus is a looser match for live web search than an MCP search server.
Integration type
Optional MCP tool backed by the You.com Search API.
Planned env vars and setup
YDC_API_KEY enables the new youcom-search tool.- If
YDC_API_KEY is unset, the tool still registers but returns a clear disabled message.
- Existing Meilisearch configuration remains unchanged.
Expected usage example
Call youcom-search with {"query":"latest playwright locator best practices","count":5} to fetch web and news results for external context.
Validation plan
- Add focused unit coverage for result formatting and disabled-key behavior.
- Run the repo's Python test suite with
uv run pytest.
- Confirm default Meilisearch search behavior is unchanged.
