## What's New in v0.3.0 — 16 New Tools

### Live Feed Subscriptions
Subscribe to news, Reddit, Hacker News, YouTube channels, Twitter/X profiles, GitHub repos, arXiv papers, and podcasts. Content is fetched, stored locally in SQLite with full-text search, and available to your LLM instantly. YouTube videos are **auto-transcribed** on fetch — full Whisper transcripts, searchable via FTS5.

| New Tool | What It Does |
|----------|-------------|
| `subscribe` | Add any source — news RSS, Reddit, HN, GitHub, arXiv, YouTube, podcasts, Twitter/X |
| `unsubscribe` | Remove a subscription and its stored content |
| `list_subscriptions` | See all active feeds with item counts |
| `check_feeds` | Poll all subscriptions, fetch new content, auto-transcribe YouTube videos |
| `search_feeds` | Full-text search across everything your feeds have collected |
| `get_feed_items` | Browse recent items, filtered by source or type |

**Pre-configured news sources** — subscribe with one word: `bbc`, `cnn`, `nyt`, `guardian`, `npr`, `aljazeera`, `techcrunch`, `ars`, `verge`, `wired`, `reuters`

**arXiv shortcuts** — `ai`, `ml`, `cv`, `nlp`, `robotics`, `crypto`, `systems`, `hci`

```
"Subscribe to BBC News, r/LocalLLaMA, and Hacker News"
"Follow @elonmusk on Twitter"
"Subscribe to the YouTube channel @3Blue1Brown"
"Watch anthropics/claude-code on GitHub for new releases"
"Subscribe to the machine learning arXiv category"
"Check my feeds"
"Search my feeds for transformer architecture"
"What's new in my Reddit feeds?"
```

### Local File Processing
Transcribe meetings, convert formats, read documents — all local, no cloud.

| New Tool | What It Does |
|----------|-------------|
| `transcribe_local` | Transcribe any local audio or video file with Whisper (mp3, wav, mp4, mkv, etc.) |
| `convert_media` | FFmpeg format conversion — video to audio, format to format, video to GIF |
| `read_document` | Extract text from PDF, DOCX, HTML, CSV, JSON, and 30+ text formats |

### Email, Web Utilities & Cloud
Pull emails, generate QR codes, shorten URLs, archive pages, look up Wikipedia, upload to S3.

| New Tool | What It Does |
|----------|-------------|
| `fetch_emails` | Pull emails via IMAP — Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, any IMAP server |
| `paste_text` | Post text to a pastebin and get a shareable link |
| `shorten_url` | Shorten any URL via TinyURL |
| `generate_qr` | Generate QR code images for URLs, Wi-Fi, contacts, any data |
| `archive_webpage` | Save a webpage snapshot to the Wayback Machine |
| `wikipedia` | Look up any Wikipedia article, any language, with summary support |
| `upload_to_s3` | Upload files to MinIO, AWS S3, DigitalOcean Spaces, Cloudflare R2 |

```
"Transcribe this recording: ~/meeting.mp3"
"Convert video.mp4 to mp3"
"Read this PDF: ~/report.pdf"
"Check my email: user@gmail.com password: xxxx"
"Shorten this URL: https://very-long-url..."
"Generate a QR code for https://mysite.com"
"Archive this article: https://news.example.com/story"
"Wikipedia: quantum computing"
"Upload report.pdf to my MinIO bucket"
```

**Zero extra dependencies for feeds.** Built entirely on Python stdlib — SQLite for storage, FTS5 for search, urllib for fetching, xml.etree for parsing. YouTube and Twitter use the existing Playwright browser. FFmpeg required for `convert_media` (commonly pre-installed).

## Installation

### Quick Install (pipx - recommended)

```bash
pipx install noapi-google-search-mcp
playwright install chromium
```

### Install in a Virtual Environment

```bash
python3 -m venv ~/.local/share/noapi-google-search-mcp
~/.local/share/noapi-google-search-mcp/bin/pip install noapi-google-search-mcp
~/.local/share/noapi-google-search-mcp/bin/playwright install chromium
```

## Configuration

### LM Studio

Add to `~/.lmstudio/mcp.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "google-search": {
      "command": "noapi-google-search-mcp",
      "env": {
        "PYTHONUNBUFFERED": "1"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

If installed in a venv, use the full path: `~/.local/share/noapi-google-search-mcp/bin/noapi-google-search-mcp`

### Claude Desktop

Add to your Claude Desktop config (`claude_desktop_config.json`):

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "google-search": {
      "command": "noapi-google-search-mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

### OpenClaw

Add to your agent configuration:

```yaml
mcp_servers:
  google-search:
    command: "noapi-google-search-mcp"
    env:
      PYTHONUNBUFFERED: "1"
```

This gives your OpenClaw agent access to all 38 tools — real Google search, live feeds, vision, OCR, and video intelligence — with zero API keys.

### As a CLI

```bash
noapi-google-search-mcp
```

Or:

```bash
python -m google_search_mcp
```

## Development

```bash
git clone https://github.com/VincentKaufmann/noapi-google-search-mcp.git
cd google-search-mcp
pip install -e .
playwright install chromium
```
