+# You.com MCP Server
+
+A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides web search functionality using the You.com Search API. Built with Bun runtime for optimal performance and supports multiple transport protocols for compatibility with different MCP clients.
+
+## Features
+
+- **Web and News Search**: Comprehensive search using You.com's unified Search API with advanced search operators
+- **Multiple Transport Protocols**: Stdio and Streamable HTTP support
+- **Bearer Token Authentication**: Secure API access in HTTP mode
+- **TypeScript Support**: Full type safety with Zod schemas
+- **Advanced Search Parameters**: Site filtering, file type filtering, language filtering, exact terms, and exclude terms
+
+## Adding to your MCP client
+
+This server can be integrated with MCP clients in two ways:
+
+- **Option 1: Remote Server (Recommended)** - No installation required, uses hosted server at `https://api.you.com/mcp` with HTTP transport and API key authentication
+- **Option 2: Local NPM Package** - Install via `npx @youdotcom-oss/mcp` with stdio transport, environment variable authentication, and runs locally on your machine
+
+### Standard Configuration Templates

+
+### General Configuration Notes
+
+- **Remote Server:** Recommended for most users - no installation required, just API key
+- **NPM Package:** Alternative for local usage or when you prefer running locally
+- **HTTP Transport:** Use for remote server connections and web applications
+- **Stdio Transport:** Use for local npm package installations and development
+- **API Key:** Always required - either as environment variable (stdio) or in headers (http)
+- **Docker/Local Development:** See sections below for advanced local development setups
+
+See the [Transport Protocols](#transport-protocols) section for detailed protocol information.
+
+## Building and Running Locally
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- **Bun 1.2.21 or higher** (replaces Node.js)
+- You.com API key (get one at [api.you.com](https://api.you.com))
+
+### Local Workspace Setup
+
+Since this package is not published to npm (marked as private), you need to clone and set it up locally:
+
+```bash
+# Clone the repository
+git clone <repository-url>
+cd you-mcp-server
+
+# Install dependencies
+bun install
+
+# Set up your environment file with your You.com API key (optional)
+echo "export YDC_API_KEY=<you-api-key>" > .env
+```
+
+### Building
+
+```bash
+# Build is optional for development, required for production bin executables
+bun run build  # Builds only stdio.ts to dist/stdio.js
+```
+
+**For MCP Client Integration:**
+Use the full path to your local server installation in your `.mcp.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "ydc-search": {
+      "type": "stdio",
+      "command": "bun",
+      "args": ["/full/path/to/you-mcp-server/src/stdio.ts"],
+      "env": {
+        "YDC_API_KEY": "<you-api-key>"
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Alternative using built executable:**
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "ydc-search": {
+      "type": "stdio",
+      "command": "node",
+      "args": ["/full/path/to/you-mcp-server/bin/stdio"],
+      "env": {
+        "YDC_API_KEY": "<you-api-key>"
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Configuration
+
+Set up your environment file with your You.com API key:
+
+```bash
+echo "export YDC_API_KEY=<you-api-key>" > .env
+source .env
+```
+
+Replace `<you-api-key>` with your actual API key:
+```bash
+echo "export YDC_API_KEY=your-actual-api-key-here" > .env
+source .env
+```
+
+Alternatively, set it as an environment variable:
+
+```bash
+export YDC_API_KEY="your-api-key-here"
+```
+
+### Available Scripts
+
+- `bun run dev` - Start server in stdio mode for development
+- `bun run build` - Build stdio.ts to dist/ for production
+- `bun start` - Start HTTP server on port 4000 (or PORT env var)
+- `bun run test` - Run test suite
+- `bun run check` - Run Biome linting and formatting checks
+
+### Executable Scripts
+
+The project includes executable scripts in `bin/`:
+- `./bin/stdio` - Stdio transport server (requires `bun run build` first)
+- `./bin/http` - HTTP transport server (runs directly from source)
+
+### Running the Server
+
+**Stdio Mode (Recommended for MCP Clients)** - For local workspace integration:
+```bash
+# Development mode (direct source)
+bun run dev
+# or
+bun src/stdio.ts
+
+# Production mode (built distribution)
+bun run build  # Build first
+./bin/stdio    # Run built version
+```
+
+**HTTP Mode** - For web applications and remote clients:
+```bash
+# Default port 4000
+bun start
+# or
+./bin/http
+
+# Custom port
+PORT=8080 bun start
+# or
+PORT=8080 ./bin/http
+```
+
+### Docker Deployment
+
+**Build and run with Docker:**
+
+```bash
+# Build the optimized Docker image (243MB final size)
+docker build -t youdotcom-mcp-server .
+
+# Run the container
+docker run -d -p 4000:4000 --name youdotcom-mcp youdotcom-mcp-server
+```
+
+**Optimization Features:**
+- **Multi-stage build**: Uses standalone binary compilation with `bun build --compile`
+- **Minimal base image**: Ubuntu 22.04 with no additional packages
+- **Size optimized**: 243MB final image
+- **Self-contained**: Includes Bun runtime in compiled binary
+- **Security**: Runs as non-root user, minimal attack surface
+
+**Using Docker Compose:**
+
+Create a `docker-compose.yml` file:
+```yaml
+version: '3.8'
+services:
+  you-mcp-server:
+    build: .
+    ports:
+      - "4000:4000"
+    environment:
+      - YDC_API_KEY=${YDC_API_KEY}
+      - PORT=4000
+    restart: unless-stopped
+```
+
+Then run:
+```bash
+docker-compose up -d
+```
+
+### Claude Code Setup with Docker
+
+To use this MCP server with Claude Code via Docker:
+
+1. **Start the Docker container:**
+   ```bash
+   docker run -d -p 4000:4000 --name youdotcom-mcp youdotcom-mcp-server
+   ```
+
+2. **Configure Claude Code:**
+   - Copy `.mcp.example.json` to `.mcp.json`
+   - Replace `<you.com api key>` with your actual You.com API key
+
+   ```bash
+   cp .mcp.example.json .mcp.json
+   ```
+
+   Your `.mcp.json` should look like:
+   ```json
+   {
+     "mcpServers": {
+       "ydc-search": {
+         "type": "http",
+         "url": "http://localhost:4000/mcp",
+         "headers": {
+           "Authorization": "Bearer <you-api-key>"
+         }
+       }
+     }
+   }
+   ```
+
+3. **Verify the setup:**
+   - The server will be available at `http://localhost:4000/mcp`
+   - Health check endpoint: `http://localhost:4000/mcp-health`
+
