# Agent Search MCP: Free-first Web Search with Inspectable Evidence
**A Node.js MCP server and CLI for English and Chinese web search.**
Agent Search MCP starts without an API key. It returns compact multi-source
evidence, records provider failures, and bounds work with request and evidence
budgets. Paid providers run only when policy and credentials allow.
