serpapi-mcp

Wrapper skill for using SerpAPI’s MCP server from inside Clawdbot via mcporter.

/serp usage

Treat this skill as providing the /serp command.

Syntax:

• /serp <query>
• /serp <query> [engine] [num] [mode]

Defaults:

• engine=google_light
• num=5
• mode=compact (compact strips some metadata; complete returns the full payload)

Examples:

• /serp site:cnmv.es "educación financiera"
• /serp "AAPL stock" google 3 compact
• /serp "weather in Madrid" google 1 complete

Implementation

Run the bundled script (JSON output):

• skills/serpapi-mcp/scripts/serp.sh "<query>" [engine] [num] [mode]

It calls the MCP tool:

• https://mcp.serpapi.com/$SERPAPI_API_KEY/mcp.search

Requirements

• SERPAPI_API_KEY must exist in the environment.
  • Recommended: set it in Clawdbot gateway config at env.vars.SERPAPI_API_KEY.

Output

Returns JSON (from SerpAPI), typically including fields like organic_results, news_results, etc., depending on the engine.
