Overview

AI-generated overview

Fetches web pages through ScrapingAnt's cloud service and returns them as HTML, Markdown or plain text, with optional browser rendering and proxy choice.

What you can do
Fetch a URL and return the page as HTML, with optional browser rendering and datacenter or residential proxies. Fetch a URL and return the page content as Markdown, suited to reading or summarizing. Fetch a URL and return the page content as plain text.
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs page content from sites that block simple requests or rely on JavaScript, or when you want clean Markdown or text rather than raw markup. Also handy for switching to residential proxies when anti-bot detection appears.
Requirements
Remote endpoint at api.scrapingant.com over streamable HTTP. A ScrapingAnt account and API key, supplied in the x-api-key header. Network access to the service.
Before you install
Requires a ScrapingAnt API key sent in the x-api-key header; the key is a billable credential, so usage may incur costs on your ScrapingAnt account. Every URL you ask the assistant to fetch is sent to ScrapingAnt's cloud service, so avoid private or internal addresses.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Scrapingant in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. 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.scrapingant%2Fmcp/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
