What is the ParseHub MCP Server?
Bring ParseHub Cloud Scraping directly into your AI workflows. Manage pre-configured web scraping targets natively and orchestrate complex headless browser automation directly from chat. Dispatch run jobs on command, query execution status limits, and extract final parsed payloads securely.
What you can do
- Project Navigation — Inspect and list configured ParseHub projects, determining start URLs, templates, and total crawler pages attached
- Execution Dispatch — Command remote servers to trigger specific headless data extraction jobs
run_projectoptionally overriding starting URLs natively - Observability Tracing — Monitor exactly where a
Runobject is (queued, initialized, running, complete) without checking the desktop app - Payload Extraction — Pull down structured arrays containing the scraped payloads securely via
get_run_datamatching explicit datasets
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your ParseHub API Key
- Start orchestrating complex scraping runs natively from Claude, Cursor, or your MCP UI
Who is this for?
- Data Engineers — trigger cloud scraping logic securely and pipeline extracted datasets straight into processing tools natively
- Marketing Intel — fetch completed scrapers watching competitor pricing logic tracking JSON arrays automatically
- Research Analysts — kick off academic paper extractors via chat and digest the results upon completion
Built-in capabilities (10)
If the run was already scraping pages, partial data may be available. Data from already-scraped pages is preserved and can be retrieved with get_run_data. Use this to stop long-running scrapes or free up queue slots. Cancel a queued or actively running ParseHub run
Cannot be undone. Use this to clean up old runs and free up storage quota on your account. Permanently delete a ParseHub run and its extracted data
Ideal for dashboards or integrations that always want the freshest available data without managing individual run tokens. Instantly get the latest completed data for a ParseHub project
The project_token can be found via list_projects or in the ParseHub desktop client settings tab. Get detailed configuration of a specific ParseHub project
Only works when the run status is "complete" and data_ready is true. The JSON structure mirrors the template selection configuration set up in the ParseHub desktop client. Download the raw JSON data extracted from a completed ParseHub run
Poll this endpoint to wait for a run to complete before fetching data. Check the status of a specific ParseHub run
Each project includes a project_token (unique identifier), title, last_run timestamp, and template configuration. Use the project_token for all subsequent run management operations. List all ParseHub web scraping projects
Useful for auditing or finding a specific completed run to fetch data from. Get the history of all runs for a ParseHub project
Returns a run_token for tracking progress. The run enters a queue and begins processing within seconds. Use get_run to monitor and get_run_data to retrieve results once complete. Start a new ParseHub scraping run for a project
Perfect for scraping different pages with the same template (e.g., different product categories). The template extraction rules still apply unchanged — only the starting page changes. Start a ParseHub run targeting a custom URL instead of the project default

Frequently asked questions
Do I need the ParseHub Desktop tool running to use this?
No. This integration operates completely natively via ParseHub's Cloud API endpoints. You only need the desktop app to build the templates originally. All executions mapped here happen on their cloud scaling servers.
Can I provide a different Start URL when running a project?
Yes. The run_project_with_url command allows you to explicitly provide a start_url query property. This instructs the ParseHub crawler to ignore its project-saved URL and begin parsing the newly mapped domain using the same semantic template.
Is the downloaded data returned in JSON or raw HTML?
The payload fetched by get_run_data is exported entirely as structured, pre-parsed JSON mirroring the exact template node selections defined in your project architecture.
How does Claude Desktop discover MCP tools?
When Claude Desktop starts, it reads the claude_desktop_config.json file and connects to each configured MCP server. It calls the tools/list endpoint to fetch the schema for every available tool, then surfaces them as clickable options in the chat interface via the 🔌 icon.
What happens if the MCP server is temporarily unavailable?
Claude Desktop handles disconnections gracefully. if the server is unreachable at startup, the tools simply won't appear. Once the server becomes available again, restarting Claude Desktop will re-establish the connection. There is no timeout penalty or error loop.
Can I connect multiple MCP servers simultaneously?
Yes. You can add as many servers as you need in the mcpServers section of the config file. Each server appears as a separate tool provider, and Claude can use tools from multiple servers in a single conversation turn.
Is there a limit on the number of tools per server?
Claude Desktop can handle hundreds of tools per server. However, for optimal LLM performance, Vinkius servers are designed to expose focused, well-documented tool sets rather than overwhelming the model with too many options.
Does Claude Desktop support Streamable HTTP transport?
Yes. Claude Desktop supports both SSE (Server-Sent Events) and the newer Streamable HTTP transport that Vinkius uses. Simply provide the server URL. Claude auto-negotiates the transport protocol.
Server not appearing after restart
Ensure the JSON is valid (no trailing commas). Check the file path: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\\Claude\\ (Windows).
Authentication error
Verify your Vinkius token is correct. Go to cloud.vinkius.com to regenerate it if needed.
Tools not showing in chat
Click the 🔌 icon at the bottom of the chat input. If it shows 0 tools, the server may still be connecting. wait a few seconds.
