What is the ScraperAPI MCP Server?
Connect your ScraperAPI account to any AI agent to bypass IP bans, CAPTCHAs, and complex anti-bot systems. Allow your agent to scrape the web dynamically using a pool of millions of proxies.
What you can do
- Render JavaScript — Command your AI to fetch data from SPAs (Single Page Applications) like React or Vue sites flawlessly
- Structured E-commerce & SEO — Extract parsed Amazon product pages via ASIN or pull Google SERP attributes in structured JSON formats directly to your chat
- Premium Unblocking — Access high-quality residential proxies automatically when dealing with ultra-secure or aggressive Cloudflare-protected targets
- Asynchronous & Visual Scraping — Spawn background scraping jobs for slow-loading pages or ask the AI to generate full-page screenshot URLs upon request
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your ScraperAPI Key
- Start commanding your agent to scrape complex targets from Claude, Cursor, or your preferred MCP client
ScraperAPI abstracts away all the infrastructure logic, turning your agent into a professional data extraction machine.
Who is this for?
- Data Engineers — let the AI dispatch parallel async jobs to scrape massive archives without holding up the conversation thread
- Growth Hackers & Analysts — fetch pricing and product metadata directly from Amazon competitors with a simple prompt
- SEO Specialists — scrape Google SERPs globally to monitor keyword rankings and rich snippet presence

Frequently asked questions
Can the agent bypass Cloudflare screens when scraping?
Yes. If standard scraping (scrape_html) encounters a block, you can prompt the agent to 'Retry using premium proxies' (scrape_premium). This engages ScraperAPI's massive pool of residential IP addresses to mimic normal human traffic perfectly.
How can I extract pricing data directly from Amazon?
Instead of attempting to parse Amazon's chaotic HTML structure, just ask your agent: 'Get the Amazon product details for ASIN B0BQK...'. The agent uses scrape_amazon to return structured JSON data, neatly outputting the item's price and stock availability.
Does the scraping tool consume my LLM context window linearly?
Not if you use async jobs. For heavy pages, tell the agent 'Create an async job to scrape this URL'. It will return a Job ID (create_async_job), freeing up the chat. You can then ask the agent to 'check on the async job' (get_async_job) whenever you're ready.
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.
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.
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.
