## Trust breakdown

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically from public evidence about the published package, including repeated runs of it in an isolated sandbox, and we only credit what we can confirm. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog)

Scored 2026-11-05.

- **Supply Chain Security**: 25/100
  - No malware scan is available for this kind of package: the supply-chain vendors we use do not cover it. This is a permanent gap in our coverage, not a finding about the package.
  - Known CVEs were checked across the 3 of 3 dependencies we could resolve, so this covers what we could see, not the whole tree.
  - No install/post-install scripts declared.
  - 0 of 3 dependencies flagged as unhealthy.
- **Provenance & Transparency**: 45/100
  - Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL.
  - Provenance check failed: no build-provenance attestation is published.
  - Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).
  - Actively maintained (last published 0 days ago).
  - Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository.
- **Schema Quality & AI Usability**: 70/100
  - AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 711 tokens (~237/item across 3 items; 3 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 57/100
  - Stability observed for 17 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.
- **Tool Coverage**: 100/100
  - 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).
  - 100% of tool parameters carry a description.
- **Tool Safety**: 100/100
  - No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.
  - We read all 3 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.
  - An AI judge read all 3 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.
- **Capabilities**: 100/100
  - Implements a current MCP spec version (2026-07-28).

## Install

### How do I install the Serper.live MCP server?

Serper.live ships as an MCPB bundle, a single file you download and open in an MCP host that supports MCPB bundles, such as Claude Desktop. The host reads the launch command from the bundle's own manifest, so there is no command to copy. Before opening it, check the file's SHA-256 matches the one the MCP registry declares for it, 01c778cdf93abcacb0bb81e0472c98d15cdab5a57fba42526ee0dcbf0bdf12d9; the commands to do that are on this page. If it does not match, do not open it.

## MCP tools (3)

### `google_search` (~332 tokens)

Live Google search

Run a live Google search for a country, language and device and return the organic results in Google's order: position, title, URL, domain and snippet, plus the questions of Google's "People also ask" block and its related searches. Ads, sitelinks, video and image blocks are left out, so position is the organic rank. Every call is a real, uncached search that usually takes 2–3 seconds and is billed to the Serper.live balance per page of up to 10 results that received results, after the free searches of the account (https://serper.live/pricing); a search that finds nothing costs nothing. Use it to see the whole result list; to check where one site ranks, use domain_position instead.

Input parameters:

- `country` (string, required): Two-letter code of the market to search in, e.g. "US", "GB", "DE", "FR", "TR": Google sees a visitor from this country. Call list_countries for the markets that are open right now.
- `device` (string): Browser persona Google sees. Desktop and mobile rankings often differ. Default: desktop.
- `language` (string): Google interface language (hl), e.g. "en", "de", "fr", "uk". Defaults to the language of the country; the market itself is set by country.
- `limit` (integer): How many organic results to return, 1–100. Default: 10. Each page of 10 that receives results is billed.
- `query` (string, required): Search keyword, exactly as a person would type it into Google.

### `domain_position` (~311 tokens)

Domain position in Google

Find where a domain ranks in Google's organic results for a keyword, in a country and on a device, right now. Prefer it over google_search when only one site matters: it returns that site's best position and every other position, or a note that the site is outside the checked depth. A subdomain counts as the domain: example.com also matches blog.example.com. Billed like google_search, per page of 10 results of depth that received results (https://serper.live/pricing).

Input parameters:

- `country` (string, required): Two-letter code of the market to search in, e.g. "US", "GB", "DE", "FR", "TR": Google sees a visitor from this country. Call list_countries for the markets that are open right now.
- `depth` (integer): How many organic results to check, 1–100. Default: 10. Use 30 or more to see positions beyond the first page.
- `device` (string): Browser persona Google sees. Desktop and mobile rankings often differ. Default: desktop.
- `domain` (string, required): Domain to look for, e.g. "example.com". Scheme, path and a leading www are ignored.
- `language` (string): Google interface language (hl), e.g. "en", "de", "fr", "uk". Defaults to the language of the country; the market itself is set by country.
- `query` (string, required): Search keyword, exactly as a person would type it into Google.

### `list_countries` (~68 tokens)

Open Serper.live markets

List the countries Serper.live can search right now, with the default Google interface language of each. Call it when unsure whether a market is open, then pass a returned code as country to google_search or domain_position. Desktop and mobile are available in every market. Free, no token needed.
