[](https://smithery.ai/server/@mochow13/google-scholar-mcp)

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides Google Scholar search capabilities through a streamable HTTP transport. This project demonstrates how to build an MCP server with custom tools and integrate it with AI models like Google's Gemini.

This project consists of two main components:

• MCP Server: Provides Google Scholar search tools via HTTP endpoints
• MCP Client: Integrates with Google Gemini AI to process queries and call tools

The server is built using the @modelcontextprotocol/sdk and implements:

• Transport: StreamableHTTPServerTransport for HTTP-based communication
• Session Management: Supports multiple simultaneous connections with session IDs
• Tool System: Extensible tool registration and execution framework
• Error Handling: Comprehensive error responses and logging

The server currently provides one main tool:

• Description: Search Google Scholar for academic papers and research
• Parameters: Configurable search parameters (query, filters, etc.)
• Returns: Structured search results with paper details

The server uses StreamableHTTPServerTransport which supports:

• HTTP POST: For sending requests and receiving responses
• HTTP GET: For establishing Server-Sent Events (SSE) streams
• Session Management: Persistent connections with unique session IDs
• Real-time Notifications: Streaming updates via SSE

The server is now available in Smithery: Google Scholar Search Server
