# Ollama Web Search MCP Service

A MCP (Model Context Protocol) service for performing web searches using Ollama.

## Features

- Perform web searches using Ollama's search capabilities
- Format search results for easy consumption
- Official MCP Python SDK implementation
- Environment-based configuration
- Comprehensive error handling
- Stdio-based communication interface

## Installation & Usage

### Option 1: Direct execution with uvx (Recommended)

Install and run directly using uvx:

```bash
uvx ollama-websearch-mcp
```

This will automatically install the package and its dependencies, then start the MCP server.

### Option 2: Local development

For local development, clone the repository and install dependencies:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/huangxinping/ollama-websearch-mcp.git
cd ollama-websearch-mcp
uv sync
```

### Local usage commands

**Run as MCP Server (for development)**:
```bash
python mcp_service.py
```

**Build Package**:
```bash
uv build
```

## MCP Interface

### Tools

1. **search**
   - Description: Perform a web search using Ollama
   - Parameters:
     - `query` (string): The search query
     - `max_results` (integer, optional): Maximum number of results to return (default: 3, range: 1-10)

### Example Output

Search result format:
```
1. Example Title
   URL: https://example.com
   Content: Example content from the search result...

2. Another Title
   URL: https://another-example.com
   Content: Another example content...
```

## Tech Stack

- **Python 3.12+**: Programming language
- **MCP**: Model Context Protocol framework
- **Ollama**: AI model API for web search
- **python-dotenv**: Environment variable management
- **uv**: Python package manager

## Development Standards

- Use uv native commands for package management
- Follow Python PEP 8 coding standards
- Include type hints and docstrings
- Complete error handling and logging

## Publishing to PyPI

To publish the package to PyPI, follow these steps:

1. Install development dependencies:
   ```bash
   uv sync --group dev
   ```

2. Build the package:
   ```bash
   uv build
   ```

3. Check the built package:
   ```bash
   uv run twine check dist/*
   ```

4. Upload to PyPI:
   ```bash
   uv run twine upload dist/*
   ```

Make sure you have your PyPI credentials configured before uploading.
