Google AI Overview Scraper

Google AI Overviews as clean Markdown with citations for Claude Code, Cursor & MCP clients. No API keys, 100% local.

Give your AI tools live, cited answers from Google AI Overviews, as clean Markdown. No API keys. Nothing leaves your machine. Google AI Overview Scraper is the browser half of a small local MCP (Model Context Protocol) server. When Claude Code, Cursor, Claude Desktop or any other MCP client asks a question, this extension runs the search in a background tab, extracts the AI Overview, and sends back Markdown with source citations. HOW IT WORKS 1. Your AI tool calls the local MCP server. 2. The extension opens a background Google AI Mode tab. It never steals focus. 3. The AI Overview is converted to Markdown with citations. 4. Everything flows back to your tool, with a thread_id for follow-up questions. WHAT YOU GET • Clean Markdown with deduplicated source citations • Follow-up questions in the same conversation (thread_id) • Pro or fast mode, chosen per query by your AI tool • Google account picker with automatic quota rotation • Image generation through the generate_image tool • Live connection status in the toolbar popup • Works with Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor and any MCP client SET UP IN A MINUTE 1.
