SerpData integration
SerpData returns Google results as JSON: web search (organic results, or the full page with People Also Ask, top stories, the local pack and related searches), Google Images, Videos, News, Shopping and Patents, autocomplete suggestions, Google Trends keyword comparisons and the Trending Now feed, and Google Maps places, with one place's details, reviews and photos. Every successful call costs one prepaid credit (failed calls are refunded) and each answer reports creditsRemaining. The web search's internal cookie_policy tuning knob is not exposed. Authentication is an API key, created on the SerpData dashboard's API keys page, sent in the x-api-key header.

The workflow builds itself.
What you can do with SerpData
Each of these is one operation on one endpoint, available both as a workflow step and as a tool an AI agent can call on its own. Nothing bundles several operations into one action, so what a run did stays readable afterwards.
Each badge shows the default agent permission of an endpoint (allowed: an agent calls it without asking; ask first: you are asked before an agent calls it, when the agent or chat asks permission for sensitive actions; never: no agent may call it), which every user can change endpoint by endpoint in their credential settings.
Most endpoints run on the free plan. A few, mainly the ones that publish on your behalf, need a paid plan.

Use SerpData from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex
Connect SerpData in LiveContext, create an API key in Settings, then add the LiveContext MCP server to your client. Its SerpData operations become tools the client can call, next to every other integration you connected.
claude mcp add --transport http livecontext https://livecontext.ai/mcp --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"[mcp_servers.livecontext]
url = "https://livecontext.ai/mcp"
[mcp_servers.livecontext.http_headers]
"X-API-Key" = "YOUR_API_KEY"{
"mcpServers": {
