Connects Claude to Brave Search's API for web queries beyond what built-in search provides. You get dedicated tools for searching across web results, images, videos, news, and local business listings with granular filtering options. The real value is in the freshness controls and robust filter parameters that let you narrow results by time range, region, or content type. Reach for this when you need Claude to pull current information with more specificity than general web search, like filtering news from the past 24 hours or finding local services in a specific area. Runs over streamable HTTP through Smithery's hosting.
