Security note

MCP servers receive tool arguments from a conversation and may perform external actions. Review what a server can do before you enable it, and give it only the access it needs.

The registry verified that this server's namespace belongs to usefulapi.io, which also runs its endpoint. That identifies the publisher; it does not make the server's tools safe.

SourceWeft's checks cover whether the listing is complete and the endpoint answered; they do not review the server's code or what its tools do.

Overview

AI-generated overview

ScrapeNinja MCP lets an assistant fetch or JavaScript-render public web pages as HTML, with explicit confirmation before each billable request.

What you can do: Retrieve a public page's HTML without JavaScript, using basic proxies and a single attempt
Render a public page with JavaScript and return its HTML
Check monthly usage against the free-tier meter
Request a missing feature
View Pro and Pro+ upgrade options with payment links, or cancel the Pro subscription
When to use it: Useful when an assistant needs the raw HTML of public pages, including JavaScript-rendered ones, and the user accepts a metered marketplace allowance or plan charge per request. Also handy for tracking usage and managing a subscription from the chat.
Requirements: Remote MCP endpoint added by URL only; the server signs users in with OAuth, and the login page asks for ScrapeNinja credentials. A subscribed APIRoad or RapidAPI key is needed. Connecting requires approval for one potentially billable test request, and every later page request also needs confirmation.

Before you install

Both page tools are billable and require confirm:true; requests may consume the subscribed marketplace allowance or incur plan charges. Free tier is 50 calls per month; Pro and Pro+ are paid subscriptions with fair-use limits, and upgrade returns a Stripe Checkout link. Cancellation runs to the end of the paid period with no refund for the current period. Do not add an Authorization header or API key to the client config; credentials go through the OAuth login page. Returned website content is…

Installation

In SourceWeft

Open ScrapeNinja MCP by usefulapi in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
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/io.usefulapi%2Fscrapeninja/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

Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste https://scrapeninja.usefulapi.io/mcp.
Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http scrapeninja https://scrapeninja.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run /mcp to log in.
VS Code: Add to VS Code.
Cursor and other clients: add the URL as a remote MCP server:

json

{  "mcpServers": {    "scrapeninja": {      "url": "https://scrapeninja.usefulapi.io/mcp"    }  }}

{  "mcpServers": {    "scrapeninja": {      "url": "https://scrapeninja.usefulapi.io/mcp"    }  }}

Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config: the server signs you in with OAuth, and the login page asks for your ScrapeNinja credentials.
