mcp-scrapingbee

ScrapingBee MCP — wraps the ScrapingBee headless-scraping API (scrapingbee.com)

Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1576+ live data sources.

Tools

Tool

Description

scrapingbee_scrape

Fetch and render any web page through ScrapingBee (headless browser + proxy rotation), returning the resulting HTML. Handles JS-heavy sites, geolocation, and ad-blocking. Example: scrapingbee_scrape({ url: "https://example.com", render_js: true, _apiKey: "your-key" })

scrapingbee_ai_extract

Extract structured data from a web page using ScrapingBee's AI. Pass a natural-language question or field description via ai_query and get back structured JSON. Example: scrapingbee_ai_extract({ url: "https://example.com/product", ai_query: "product name and price", _apiKey: "your-key" })

scrapingbee_google

Scrape Google Search results via ScrapingBee's Google SERP API. Returns structured JSON with organic results, AI overviews, local results, related searches, and more. Example: scrapingbee_google({ search: "best coffee grinder", country_code: "us", _apiKey: "your-key" })

Quick Start

Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "scrapingbee": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/scrapingbee/mcp"
    }
  }
}

What this endpoint actually serves

tools/list at https://gateway.pipeworx.io/scrapingbee/mcp returns the tools in the table above plus the shared Pipeworx meta-tools — ask_pipeworx, discover_tools, search_within, remember/recall and the rest of the gateway-wide set. So the tool count you see is larger than this table: a single-pack endpoint currently lists roughly 30 shared tools alongside the pack's own. The connection's initialize response states its exact scope, and is the authoritative answer for a given day.

This is deliberate, not multiplexing by accident. The meta-tools are what let a scoped connection answer a question this pack does not cover — via ask_pipeworx, which routes across the whole catalog — without you adding a second MCP server. There is currently no way to mount a pack endpoint without them; if the extra schemas cost you more context than the routing is worth, connect to the full gateway once rather than to several pack endpoints.

Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway to get every pack's tools listed directly, instead of just this one's:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pipeworx": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Both URLs reach the same gateway and the same 1576+ data sources. The only difference is which pack's tools are listed directly; ask_pipeworx reaches all of them from either one.

Standalone (no gateway account)

This package also runs as a local stdio MCP server — no Pipeworx account, no gateway round-trip:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "scrapingbee": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@pipeworx/mcp-scrapingbee"]
    }
  }
}

Or run it directly to confirm it starts:

npx -y @pipeworx/mcp-scrapingbee

It speaks MCP over stdin/stdout and answers initialize/tools/list/tools/call for only this pack's tools — none of the shared meta-tools the gateway connection above adds. Same source, same tools, no ask_pipeworx routing.

Using with ask_pipeworx

Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English — this works on the pack endpoint above as well as on the full gateway:

ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Scrapingbee data" })

The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
