Overview

AI-generated overview

Remote Apify-hosted MCP server that lets an assistant scrape public Discourse forums for topic titles, authors, reply counts, views and URLs.

What you can do
  • Collect topic listings from a public Discourse forum, including titles, authors, reply counts, views and canonical URLs.
  • Retrieve forum content through an Apify-hosted remote endpoint rather than a local package.
When to use it
Useful when you want an assistant to gather or summarize discussion topics from public Discourse communities, such as research on forum activity or collecting thread links.
Requirements
A remote MCP endpoint at mcp.apify.com over streamable HTTP. Authentication is required: an Apify API token sent as an Authorization bearer token, or OAuth if the MCP client supports it. Network access to the endpoint is needed.
Before you install
You must supply an Apify API token, which is a billable account credential; scraping runs on Apify may consume account credits or incur charges. Only public forums are described, but scraped content is fetched through a third-party service.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Discourse Forum Scraper — Topics & Posts in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Connect the required credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
  3. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/com.ranovam%2Fdiscourse-forum-scraper/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config. The client completes OAuth sign-in on first connect.

This server asks you to sign in, so SourceWeft could not read its tools without an account and has not indexed them. What a connected account sees can depend on that account and its permissions.

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
