Install dependencies: ```bash npm install ``` 2. Build the server: ```bash npm run build ``` 3. Configure environment: Modify your `claude_desktop_config.json` with the following content (adjust paths according to your system): ```json "google-news": { "command": "D:\\Program\\nvm\\node.exe", "args": [ "D:\\github_repository\\path_to\\dist\\index.js" ], "env": { "SERP_API_KEY": "your-api-key" } } ``` 4. Start the server: ```bash npm start ``` ## Troubleshooting 1. Invalid API Key - Verify API key configuration in `claude_desktop_config.json` - Confirm API key is active in SERP API dashboard 2. Request Failures - Check network connectivity - Verify API call quota hasn't been exceeded - Validate request parameter format ## Running evals The evals package loads an mcp client that then runs the index.ts file, so there is no need to rebuild between tests. You can load environment variables by prefixing the npx command. Full documentation can be found [here](https://www.mcpevals.io/docs). ```bash OPENAI_API_KEY=your-key npx mcp-eval src/evals/evals.ts src/index.ts ``` # 📦 Installation ## Installing via Smithery To install Google News for Claude Desktop automatically via [Smithery](https://smithery.ai/server/@chanmeng666/google-news-server): ```bash npx -y @smithery/cli install @chanmeng666/google-news-server --client claude ``` [![smithery badge](https://smithery.ai/badge/@chanmeng666/google-news-server)](https://smithery.ai/server/@chanmeng666/google-news-server) ## Installing via mcp-get ```bash npx @michaellatman/mcp-get@latest install @chanmeng666/google-news-server ``` > If you are using an old version of Windows PowerShell, you may need to run `Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process` before this command. ## Manual Installation
