Outcrawl MCP

Give your AI agent the web. Outcrawl is web infrastructure for AI agents: connect it once, then ask in plain words. Your agent reads any page as clean markdown or JSON, crawls a whole site, searches the web with the results already read, watches pages for changes, and hands a multi-step task (a login, a form, a flow across pages) to an agent working in a real browser.

  • Server: https://api.outcrawl.ai/mcp (streamable HTTP)

  • Sign-in: OAuth in your browser on first use. No key to copy, nothing to paste into a config file.

  • 30 tools: scrape, crawl, search, agent runs, monitors, profiles, recorded sessions, usage, credits and workspace rules. Tool reference

The server is hosted by Outcrawl. There is no local package to install or run. You pick one workspace when you sign in, every call spends that workspace's credits, and every result reports what it cost. The Free plan has 1,000 credits a month; a page load is 1 credit. Pricing

Connect your agent

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http outcrawl https://api.outcrawl.ai/mcp

The first tool call opens a browser to sign in and pick a workspace.

Or install the plugin, which adds the server and a skill that teaches Claude which tool to reach for:

/plugin marketplace add outcrawlai/outcrawl-mcp
/plugin install outcrawl@outcrawl

Cursor

Add to Cursor

Or add it in Cursor's MCP settings (~/.cursor/mcp.json):

{ "mcpServers": { "outcrawl": { "url": "https://api.outcrawl.ai/mcp" } } }

Codex

codex mcp add outcrawl --url https://api.outcrawl.ai/mcp
codex mcp login outcrawl

Or in ~/.codex/config.toml:

[mcp_servers.outcrawl]
url = "https://api.outcrawl.ai/mcp"

Gemini CLI

gemini extensions install https://github.com/outcrawlai/outcrawl-mcp

Any other MCP client

Give the client the URL https://api.outcrawl.ai/mcp and choose OAuth. It registers itself and signs you in through your browser on first use:

{ "mcpServers": { "outcrawl": { "url": "https://api.outcrawl.ai/mcp" } } }

Create an API key in the console at https://outcrawl.ai/console/keys and send it as a header:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "outcrawl": {
      "url": "https://api.outcrawl.ai/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer ock_YOUR_KEY_ID.YOUR_SECRET" }
    }
  }
}

This is the one place an API key belongs in an MCP config; every client above signs in instead.

Tools

What they do

Read the web

outcrawl_scrape, outcrawl_crawl, outcrawl_search

One known URL to markdown, HTML, links, a screenshot or JSON; a whole site from a seed URL; a web search with every hit read in full

Agents

outcrawl_agent and 9 more

Give a task to an agent in a real browser under caps you set, follow its steps, read its records as they land, cancel it, hand its browser to a person, pass it a file, list its downloads

Monitors

outcrawl_monitor_create, outcrawl_monitor_list, outcrawl_monitor_delete

Watch a URL on a schedule and notify Discord, Slack or a webhook when it really changes

Profiles

outcrawl_profile_create, outcrawl_profile_list, outcrawl_profile_get, outcrawl_profile_delete

Keep cookies and site storage so a login survives across runs, optionally pinned to a country, region and city

Sessions

outcrawl_sessions_list, outcrawl_sessions_get, outcrawl_session_network, outcrawl_session_request, outcrawl_session_downloads, outcrawl_session_delete

Every session is recorded: its replay URL, network and console digest, any request in full, its downloads

Account

outcrawl_usage, outcrawl_credits, outcrawl_rules_get, outcrawl_rules_set

Usage over a date range, the credit pool, and workspace rules written in plain sentences

Pick the cheapest tool that answers: a scrape to read a page you know, a search to find pages, a crawl to cover a site, and an agent only when the answer is behind a login, a form or a multi-step flow. An agent run costs far more than a scrape for the same text.

Try it

Read https://outcrawl.ai/pricing and list the plans with their prices.

Search for the latest Model Context Protocol changes and summarize the top three.

Crawl the docs at https://outcrawl.ai/docs, at most 20 pages, and list the page titles.

Watch https://example.com/changelog every hour and post to my Slack webhook when it changes.

JavaScript-heavy pages are rendered in a real browser and blocked requests retried through a proxy, so agents can reach content they'd otherwise miss.
