What is the UserStack User-Agent Lookup MCP Server?
Equip your AI agent with real-time browser and device intelligence through the UserStack MCP server. This integration provides instant parsing of User-Agent strings to identify the device type (mobile, desktop, tablet), brand, operating system, and browser version. Your agent can also detect crawlers and bots with high precision. Whether you are auditing web traffic, personalizing user experiences, or researching device distributions, your agent acts as a dedicated technical analyst through natural conversation.
What you can do
- UA Parsing — Decode complex User-Agent strings into structured device and browser data.
- Bot Detection — Identify if a request is coming from a human user or a search engine crawler.
- Technical Auditing — Verify the OS and browser capabilities of specific web clients.
- Device Profiling — Retrieve brand and model information for mobile and desktop systems.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your UserStack Access Key (get it at userstack.com)
- Start detecting User-Agents from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Web Developers — quickly debug and analyze User-Agent data for testing.
- Security Analysts — identify suspicious agents or bot activity in web logs.
- Digital Marketers — profile the technology used by website visitors.
- Operations Teams — automate the classification of incoming web requests.

Frequently asked questions
Can I identify if a user is on an iPhone?
Yes! Use the detect_user_agent tool. The response will include the device brand ('Apple') and the specific model or type if available in the UA string.
Does this server detect search engine bots?
Yes. The underlying API identifies known crawlers like Googlebot or Bingbot. The agent will explicitly state if the detected agent is a crawler.
Can I parse multiple User-Agents at once?
Currently, the detect_user_agent tool processes one string per call. You can ask your AI agent to perform sequential checks for a list of strings.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
