## What it does

Crawlora MCP gives an agent tools for working with public web data, including web search and page retrieval. Tool results come back as JSON. Their definitions include input schemas and map to Crawlora REST API endpoints.

Connect through the hosted Streamable HTTP endpoint, or run the local stdio server. The local option requires Node.js 20+ and a Crawlora API key. Requests without a valid key receive `401`, so configure authentication as well as the client connection.
