### Description (declared)

# scraping-mcp

MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for [Scraping](https://scraping.io) — lets LLM agents (Cursor, Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Zed) call our scraping tools directly.

## Install

```bash
pip install scraping-mcp
# or with pipx for isolation:
pipx install scraping-mcp
```

Requires Python 3.11+.

## Hosted alternative (no install)

If you don't want to install Python locally, point your MCP client at the
hosted instance:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "scraping": {
      "url": "https://api.scraping.io/mcp/",
      "transport": "http",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer fc_live_..."
      }
    }
  }
}
```

The hosted version exposes the same 7 tools as the stdio package.

## Setup

Get an API key at [dashboard/keys](https://api.scraping.io/dashboard/keys).

### Claude Desktop

Add to `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` (macOS) / `%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json` (Windows):

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "scraping": {
      "command": "scraping-mcp",
      "env": {
        "SCRAPING_API_KEY": "fc_live_abc123...",
        "SCRAPING_BASE_URL": "https://api.scraping.io"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

Restart Claude Desktop. Tools will appear as "scraping".

### Cursor

Create `.cursor/mcp.json` in the repo root:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "scraping": {
      "command": "scraping-mcp",
      "env": { "SCRAPING_API_KEY": "fc_live_abc123..." }
    }
  }
}
```

### Claude Code

Add to `~/.claude.json` (user scope):

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "scraping": {
      "command": "scraping-mcp",
      "env": { "SCRAPING_API_KEY": "fc_live_abc123..." }
    }
  }
}
```
