Overview

AI-generated overview

Lets an assistant run five pay-per-use Apify web data tools: lead contact extraction, docs-to-Markdown crawling, document conversion, transcription, and AI…

What it does
Connects an MCP client to Apify's hosted MCP server restricted to five TidyTools Actors: Website Contact Extractor (emails and social handles from sites), Website to Markdown Crawler (pages as Markdown for context), PDF/Word/Excel to Markdown, Audio & Video Transcriber, and AI Crawler Access Checker. It also exposes Apify's standard helpers such as get-actor-run, get-dataset-items, get-key-value-store-record and abort-actor-run so the agent can fetch results of longer runs.
When to use it
Use it when an assistant needs web-derived data without building scrapers: enriching lead lists, loading documentation into context as Markdown, converting documents, transcribing audio or video, or checking whether a site blocks AI crawlers.
Requirements
A remote MCP endpoint at mcp.apify.com; nothing to install. A free Apify account is required, and runs are billed per result. Authentication is either OAuth sign-in or an Authorization header with a Bearer Apify API token.
Before you install
Runs are billed to the Apify account per result, so costs scale with volume (for example per 1,000 websites, pages or documents, or per audio minute). The Authorization header carries an Apify API token, a secret that should be kept out of shared configs. Tools fetch third-party web pages and send site and document content to Apify for processing.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open TidyTools: lead enrichment, RAG Markdown, transcripts, AI crawler checks in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.

README

TidyTools for AI agents (remote MCP)

Five pay-per-use web data tools that any MCP client (Claude, Cursor, VS Code, n8n AI Agent, ...) can call through Apify's hosted MCP server. Nothing to install: add one URL.

Tools

ToolAsk your agent something likePrice (Apify, Sept 2026)
Website Contact Extractor"Find the email and Instagram of these 50 cafés."$2 per 1,000 websites; nothing found = free
Website to Markdown Crawler"Load the FastAPI docs into context as Markdown."$1 per 1,000 pages ($2.50 when a page needs a browser)
PDF, Word & Excel to Markdown"Turn this PDF into Markdown chunks."$2 per 1,000 documents
Audio & Video Transcriber"Transcribe the latest episode of this podcast and summarize it."$0.006 per audio minute
AI Crawler Access Checker"Does nytimes.com block GPTBot or ClaudeBot?"$2 per 1,000 sites

Connect

OAuth (recommended): add the URL above as a remote MCP server; your client opens an Apify sign-in the first time.

API token:

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "tidytools": {      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=tidytools/website-contact-extractor,tidytools/website-markdown-crawler,tidytools/document-to-markdown,tidytools/audio-transcriber,tidytools/ai-crawler-access-checker",      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" }    }  }}

You need a free Apify account; runs are billed to it per result (no subscription). Only want one tool? Keep just that one in ?tools=.

Besides the five tools, the server adds Apify's standard helpers (get-actor-run, get-dataset-items, get-key-value-store-record, abort-actor-run) so the agent can fetch results of longer runs.

How it works

The server is Apify's official MCP server (com.apify/apify-mcp-server). The tools parameter limits it to these five Actors, so the agent sees five focused tools instead of thousands. Each Actor's behaviour, limits and output fields are documented on its Apify page.
