Questions

How do you decide which servers are web search servers?
By the categories each server's own repository declares, mapped onto this job by a hand-kept table. A server can belong to more than one job, and one whose repository declares no matching category is not listed here.
Which web search MCP servers rank highest on trust?
exa-mcp-server (exa-labs/exa-mcp-server), Exa (exa-labs/exa-mcp-server) and Brightdata Mcp (brightdata/brightdata-mcp), by trust score and then stars. Ranking never uses popularity to change a verdict.
How many web search servers only read?
45 of the 121 declare tools that all only read; 19 expose at least one destructive tool.
