Cline executes full scraping workflows

Cline takes your requirements and maps them to real API calls. It uses `run_extractor` to start the job and keeps track of the `run_id` to poll status until the data exists. This is end-to-end execution. You don't write the polling logic; Cline writes the files, imports the data, and stages the final output for your review.

Manage bulk jobs with this MCP Server in Cline

Run massive extraction tasks by triggering `start_crawl`. Cline monitors the job progress using `get_crawl_status` and waits for completion. Once the crawl finishes, it fetches the full dataset via `get_crawl_data`. It then writes the resulting JSON into your project directory, ready for immediate use in your app.

Validate data sources within Cline

Use `list_extractors` to see what you have configured. If you need to verify a new site, `run_magic_api` provides an immediate look at the target data. Cline uses this to verify the structure before it starts writing your code. It ensures the data matches your schema expectations before you build on top of it.
