01 · Install Google data (Trends, YouTube, Ads Transparency, Play)
before you install - you'll need
The README does not document required environment variables for a basic install.
Claude Code
claude mcp add ducnhd-google-data-mcp -- uvx google-data-mcp Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config
{
"mcpServers": {
"ducnhd-google-data-mcp": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": [

]
}
}
} Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

02 · Evidence
Security posture
What to check before giving this server access to your agent - from the registry, GitHub, and our own probes. We don't score safety; we show what's verifiable.
runs as local process (stdio) - runs on your machine with your user's permissions
repo age created 2026-08-06 - young repo, little track record yet
license no standard license detected - usage rights unclear; check the repo before commercial use
pypi package google-data-mcp - check the name against the project README before installing (PyPI has no namespace ownership)
registry namespace io.github.ducnhd is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner
03 · What Google data (Trends, YouTube, Ads Transparency, Play) can do
Prose above is summarized from the project's README and registry record - no invented capabilities.
Limitations (from the README)
Trends values are relative within a single request. Two separate google_trends_interest calls are not comparable to each other; that is what google_trends_compare is for. Google caps a comparison at 5 terms and silently drops a 6th, so a 6th is refused rather than quietly ignored. Play reviews differ per locale. Each hl/gl pair returns a different set of reviews - six locales gave 120 unique reviews of the same app.
04 · Who maintains Google data (Trends, YouTube, Ads Transparency, Play)
Google data (Trends, YouTube, Ads Transparency, Play) is maintained by ducnhd. It's the only MCP server we track from this author; the repo dates to Aug 2026.
