OLX India MCP Server

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server designed to searchclassified product listings and retrieve detailed specifications, images, and seller profiles from OLX India (olx.in).

This server allows AI assistants (like Claude, Cursor, etc.) to fetch real-time listings for cars, properties, mobiles, electronics, jobs, and services directly from OLX India.

Features

• Search Listings: Find classified ads on OLX India with options to filter by query keywords, common Indian cities (Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Pune, etc.), min/max price, sorting, and pagination.

• Detailed Retrieval: Extract full item specifications, seller info, posting date, specifications/parameters (e.g. brand, model, KM driven, fuel type), description, and image gallery.

• Robust Scraping: Employs curl-based request patterns to bypass JA3 TLS handshake blocks and load full page state objects.
