      Per-integration URL is issued from the dashboard MCP integrations page
      (https://www.searchapi.io/mcp_integrations). An anonymous POST to the
      server returns "MCP token required", so the live `tools/list` schema is
      token-gated; the tools below are enumerated from the published MCP
      integrations catalog, not from an authenticated introspection.

  note: >-
    Tools are grouped into configurable "bundles" (a bundle is a set of tools you
    attach to an assistant). Preconfigured bundles include Google Travel; custom
    bundles can be assembled from any of the engine tools below.
  examples: [Google Travel]
