About Web Scraper MCP Server
Connect the Web Scraper utility to any AI agent to give it direct access to the public internet. Instead of letting the AI hallucinate facts, allow it to read real-time articles, parse documentation, and fetch clean text from any URL you provide.
Mastra's agent abstraction provides a clean separation between LLM logic and Web Scraper tool infrastructure. Connect 5 tools through Vinkius and use Mastra's built-in workflow engine to chain tool calls with conditional logic, retries, and parallel execution. deployable to any Node.js host in one command.
What you can do
- Reader View — Convert any cluttered webpage into pristine, readable Markdown by stripping out ads, navbars, and boilerplate using Mozilla Readability logic
- Site Crawling — Instruct the AI to crawl a starting URL (like a documentation hub or wiki) up to 10 pages deep automatically
- Batch Processing — Fetch up to 10 different URLs in parallel to compare articles or summarize multiple sources at once
- Metadata Extraction — Quickly pull SEO titles, descriptions, OG tags, canonical links, and all outbound hyperlinks without downloading the entire page body
