Overview

AI-generated overview

Runs fecklesspleb's Apify Actors for SEO audits, page metadata, sitemaps, Hacker News and job listings, billed to your own Apify account.

What you can do
  • Audit a site's on-page SEO page by page, or fetch titles, meta tags, Open Graph, JSON-LD and hreflang for a list of URLs
  • List every URL in a site's sitemaps with lastmod, changefreq and priority, filtered by regex or date
  • Search Hacker News stories and comments, or turn the monthly Who is hiring thread into job records
  • Collect remote job postings from Remote OK, We Work Remotely and Jobicy in one deduplicated list
  • Pull open jobs from Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby and Workday boards, or from mixed ATS career pages in one schema
  • Opt-in web tools: crawl pages to Markdown, download images, take screenshots, and check broken links
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs SEO or metadata checks, sitemap inventories, Hacker News research, or job-market data gathered from public sources without writing scrapers. The opt-in web toolset adds crawling, screenshots and link checking.
Requirements
Runs locally over stdio via npx, so Node.js 20 or newer is needed. An Apify account and an APIFY_TOKEN environment variable are required for calls; without it tools are listed but calls fail. Optional variables set the toolset, per-call cost cap, cost ceiling, run timeout and output length. Network access to Apify is needed.
Before you install
Every call spends money on your own Apify account at the Actors' Store prices, and part of it goes to the Actor developer; per-call caps via maxCostUsd and APIFY_MAX_COST_CEILING_USD limit but do not eliminate spend. The APIFY_TOKEN is a billable credential. Screenshots and downloaded files are stored in your Apify storage and returned as links. Long runs may time out while continuing in your Apify Console, and large results are truncated.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open fecklesspleb Apify Actors in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

Other MCP clients

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

README

fecklesspleb-actors-mcp

An MCP server that gives AI agents 14 tools: 10 on by default for SEO audits, page metadata, sitemaps, Hacker News search and job listings, plus 4 opt-in web tools for Markdown crawling, image downloads, screenshots and broken-link checks. Each tool runs one of my public Apify Actors and returns the results in the tool response.

Disclosure: I (fecklesspleb) wrote and maintain this server and every Actor it calls. Runs are billed per result to your own Apify account at the Actors' Store prices, and some of that money comes to me as the Actor developer. This project is not affiliated with or endorsed by Apify, Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday, Remote OK, We Work Remotely, Jobicy, Hacker News, Y Combinator or Algolia.

Why use this instead of Apify's own MCP server

You don't have to. Apify's official server can run these Actors too:

  • Hosted: https://mcp.apify.com?tools=fecklesspleb/website-seo-audit,fecklesspleb/sitemap-extractor (OAuth, or an Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_TOKEN> header)
  • Local: npx -y @apify/actors-mcp-server --tools fecklesspleb/website-seo-audit,fecklesspleb/sitemap-extractor with APIFY_TOKEN set

This server is a smaller, focused option:

  • The results come back in the tool call. Each call uses Apify's synchronous run-sync-get-dataset-items endpoint, so the agent gets the dataset items directly instead of a run ID to poll.
  • Every call has a dollar cap. maxCostUsd (default $0.25) is sent to Apify as maxTotalChargeUsd. A server-side ceiling (default $5) caps what an agent can ask for.
  • Small defaults. When the agent leaves them out, the server sets limits such as 25 jobs, 50 Hacker News items or 10 pages per site. Job descriptions are left out unless the agent asks for them, which keeps responses short.
  • Input schemas stay current. At startup the server reads each Actor's input schema from its live Apify build, so the tools accept exactly what the Actors accept. If Apify can't be reached, it uses a bundled snapshot.

Tools

Prices are the Apify Store prices when this was written. The live price is on each Actor's page.

Every tool also takes maxCostUsd. All other arguments are the Actor's own input fields, described in the tool's input schema.

Setup

You need Node.js 20 or newer and an Apify account. Copy your API token from Apify Console > Settings > API & Integrations.

Claude Desktop, Cursor and other clients that use an mcpServers config:

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "fecklesspleb-actors": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "fecklesspleb-actors-mcp"],      "env": { "APIFY_TOKEN": "<your Apify API token>" }    }  }}

Claude Code:

sh
claude mcp add fecklesspleb-actors --env APIFY_TOKEN=<your Apify API token> -- npx -y fecklesspleb-actors-mcp

From source:

sh
git clone https://github.com/fecklesspleb/actors-mcp.gitcd actors-mcpnpm ci && npm run buildAPIFY_TOKEN=<your Apify API token> node dist/index.js

Docker:

sh
docker build -t fecklesspleb-actors-mcp .docker run -i --rm -e APIFY_TOKEN=<your Apify API token> fecklesspleb-actors-mcp

Configuration

VariableDefaultMeaning
APIFY_TOKEN(required for calls)Your Apify API token. Tools are still listed without one, but calls return an error.
FECKLESSPLEB_TOOLSETScore,jobsComma-separated: core, jobs, web, or all.
APIFY_MAX_COST_USD0.25Cap per call when the agent doesn't pass maxCostUsd. Must be a positive number; 0, negative values and non-numbers stop the server at startup. A value above the ceiling is lowered to the ceiling.
APIFY_MAX_COST_CEILING_USD5Highest maxCostUsd an agent can request. Bigger values are lowered to this. Must be a positive number.
APIFY_RUN_TIMEOUT_SECS280Run timeout sent to Apify. 0 uses the Actor's own timeout.
MAX_OUTPUT_CHARS60000Longest tool response. Longer results are cut short, and the response says how many items were left out.
FECKLESSPLEB_LIVE_SCHEMAS1Set to 0 to skip the live schema lookup and use the bundled snapshots.
APIFY_API_BASE_URLhttps://api.apify.com/v2API base URL. Only for testing against a mock API; leave unset. Must be https; plain http is accepted only for localhost, 127.0.0.1 and ::1.

What a call returns

json
{  "actor": "fecklesspleb/sitemap-extractor",  "itemCount": 2,  "maxCostUsd": 0.25,  "items": [    { "url": "https://example.com/blog/a", "lastmod": "2026-10-01", "sitemapUrl": "https://example.com/sitemap.xml" },    { "url": "https://example.com/blog/b", "lastmod": "2026-10-03", "sitemapUrl": "https://example.com/sitemap.xml" }  ]}

items are the Actor's dataset items, unchanged. The fields for each Actor are listed on its Apify Store page.

Limits

  • Apify's synchronous endpoint waits at most 300 seconds. A longer run returns an error, but the run may keep going in your Apify Console. Ask for fewer URLs, pages or companies.
  • Results larger than MAX_OUTPUT_CHARS are cut short. The full dataset stays in your Apify account.
  • Screenshots and downloaded files are returned as links to your Apify storage, not as image data.

Development

Building and running the tests needs Node.js 20.19 or newer (on Node 22, 22.12 or newer), because the test runner (Vitest, on Vite 8) requires it. Running the server still needs only Node.js 20 or newer.

sh
npm cinpm run buildnpm test                  # builds, then runs unit, protocol and token-leak tests against a mocked Apify API, no networkAPIFY_TOKEN=<your Apify API token> npm run e2e   # one real call (Hacker News, 5 items, about $0.00075, billed to that account)npm run snapshot-schemas  # refresh the bundled input schemas from the live Actor builds
