What is the Crawlbase MCP Server?

Connect your Crawlbase (formerly ProxyCrawl) account to any AI agent and take full control of your web scraping and anonymous crawling workflows through natural conversation.

What you can do

Standard Scraper — Identify bounded routing spaces inside the headless engine to extract explicitly attached HTML content via datacenter proxies
JS Rendering — Discover disconnected physical limits tracking exactly what JS-rendered frames expose to extract exact single-page UI bounds
Structured JSON Extraction — Analyzes specific global bounds driving auto-extraction pipelines to force raw HTTP outputs into structured JSON format strictly
Screenshot Capture — Dispatch automated validation checks to generate valid proxy endpoints returning configured Crawlbase screenshot URLs
Specialized Scraping — Leverage dedicated algorithms for Amazon products, LinkedIn profiles, Facebook pages, and Twitter (X) graph profiles natively
Search Engine Discovery — Explain explicitly mapped proxy lists targeting Google domains to parse SERP limits and bypass CAPTCHAs limitlessly
Custom Proxy Management — Provision highly-available request payloads generating custom proxies with specific headers and crawling logic

How it works

Subscribe to this server
Enter your Crawlbase Normal Token and your optional JavaScript Token (found in your Crawlbase Dashboard)

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

When should I use the JavaScript (JS) Token versus the Normal Token?

Use the Normal Token for fast, static HTML extraction. Switch to the JavaScript Token when the target site uses frameworks like React or Angular, where content is rendered dynamically in the browser. The 'scrape_js_rendered' tool requires the JS Token to function.

Can my agent bypass CAPTCHAs while scraping Google or LinkedIn?

Yes. Crawlbase is built to handle CAPTCHAs and blocks natively. When you use specialized tools like 'scrape_google_serp' or 'scrape_linkedin', the agent routes your requests through Crawlbase's advanced proxy infrastructure to ensure successful data extraction.

How do I get a structured JSON response instead of raw HTML?

Use the 'scrape_json_format' tool or the specialized scraper tools (Amazon, LinkedIn, etc.). These trigger Crawlbase's auto-extraction pipelines, which analyze the page structure and return specific data fields in a clean JSON format.

How do I add an MCP server to Claude Code?

Run claude mcp add <name> --transport http "<url>" in your terminal. Claude Code registers the server and discovers all tools immediately.

Can Claude Code run MCP tools in headless mode?

Yes. Claude Code supports non-interactive execution, making it ideal for scripts, cron jobs, and CI/CD pipelines that need MCP tool access.

How do I list all connected MCP servers?

Run claude mcp in your terminal to see all registered servers and their status, or type /mcp inside an active Claude Code session.
