Google’s MCP Servers are bound by the underlying API limits, so that is the first constraint.  

The second will be the available context window of your MCP client and LLM you are using, so that’s the next constraint you need understand.

A generalization is that 1 token is 4 characters / 4 bytes (for English), and that means you can potentially get at best between 2 to 4 megabytes of API response be available. 

A likely explanation is that when you search a smaller window, you get a small enough response that can fit within your MCP Client.

However, with no more specific detail on the error, it is hard to be any more precise than that.
