Browse AI + Cursor Use Cases
Practical scenarios where Cursor combined with the Browse AI MCP Server delivers measurable value.
Code generation with live data: ask Cursor to generate a security report module using live DNS and subdomain data fetched through MCP
Automated documentation: have Cursor query your API's tool schemas and generate TypeScript interfaces or OpenAPI specs automatically
Infrastructure-as-code: Cursor can fetch domain configurations and generate corresponding Terraform or CloudFormation templates
Test scaffolding: ask Cursor to pull real API responses via MCP and generate unit test fixtures from actual data
Browse AI MCP Tools for Cursor (10)
These 10 tools become available when you connect Browse AI to Cursor via MCP:
download_bulk_data
Returns a JSON array where each element contains the capturedData from one task. Download all extracted results from a completed Browse AI bulk run
get_bulk_task
Get bulk task execution status from Browse AI
get_robot
Get detailed configuration of a specific Browse AI robot
get_task
Check the status of a specific Browse AI extraction task
get_task_data
Only meaningful when the task status is "successful". Fields match the column names configured in the Browse AI robot builder hitting internal task references. Retrieve the final extracted JSON data from a successful Browse AI task
list_credits
Check Browse AI quota limits and credit usage
list_monitors
Monitors run on scheduled intervals to detect changes on target web pages and trigger notifications or data captures automatically via `/monitors`. List all active Browse AI web monitoring robots
list_robots
Each robot represents a no-code AI scraping workflow targeting a specific website or data pattern via `GET /robots`. List all Browse AI extraction and monitoring robots
run_bulk_task
Each set typically contains a different "originUrl". All extractions run concurrently on Browse AI infrastructure. Run a Browse AI robot in bulk mode across multiple URLs
run_robot
Pass a JSON string of input parameters (typically including "originUrl" for the target page and any variable fields the robot expects). Returns a taskId. Trigger a Browse AI robot to extract data from a target URL
