About ScrapingBee MCP Server

Connect your ScrapingBee account to any AI agent and take full control of your web data extraction and stealth scraping orchestration through natural conversation. ScrapingBee provides a robust scraping API that handles headless browsers, rotating proxies, and automated CAPTCHA solving, and this integration allows you to retrieve raw HTML, take screenshots, and use AI-driven extraction rules directly from your chat interface.

Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple ScrapingBee tool calls autonomously. query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 10 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.

What you can do

  • Stealth Scraper Orchestration — Retrieve raw HTML from any website while bypassing anti-bot systems and CAPTCHAs programmatically.
  • JavaScript Rendering Control — Toggle headless browser rendering to extract data from modern, dynamic SPAs directly from the AI interface.
  • AI-Driven Data Extraction — Use AI extraction rules to parse complex web pages into structured JSON data via natural language.
  • Premium Proxy Intelligence — Access residential and premium proxies to scrape high-security websites without risk of IP blocking.
  • Operational Monitoring — Track system activity and monitor API credit consumption using simple AI commands.

The ScrapingBee MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Windsurf in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

ScrapingBee + Windsurf FAQ

Common questions about integrating ScrapingBee MCP Server with Windsurf.

01

How does Windsurf discover MCP tools?

Windsurf reads the mcp_config.json file on startup and connects to each configured server via Streamable HTTP. Tools are listed in the MCP panel and available to Cascade automatically.
02

Can Cascade chain multiple MCP tool calls?

Yes. Cascade is an agentic system. it can plan and execute multi-step workflows, calling several tools in sequence to accomplish complex tasks without manual prompting between steps.
03

Does Windsurf support multiple MCP servers?

Yes. Add as many servers as needed in mcp_config.json. Each server's tools appear in the MCP panel and Cascade can use tools from different servers in a single flow.
