Add You.com web search and research capabilities via MCP server integration. ECA users can now add web search, URL content extraction, and AI-powered research tools to their coding agents across all supported editors. Configuration options include: - Authenticated access with full features using YDC_API_KEY - Keyless basic web search using the free profile - Specialized endpoints for finance and documentation search This follows ECA's existing MCP server patterns and requires no code changes, only configuration additions to the tools documentation.
