Scrapeer — Claude Code MCP server: features and setup
Scrapeer lets an AI agent run visual web-scraping flows, inspect their output, and edit flow blocks through MCP.
claude mcp add mcp-server -e SCRAPEER_API_KEY=<SCRAPEER_API_KEY> -- npx -y @scrapeer/mcp-serverWhat Scrapeer does
The server connects an MCP client to Scrapeer. An agent can list saved flows, start cloud executions, retrieve structured results, and inspect execution steps when a run fails. It can also create flows or make targeted changes to their blocks.
Connection requires the SCRAPEER_API_KEY credential. Without it, the server cannot access the Scrapeer account. Before creating or changing a flow, the agent should fetch the block catalog, which describes valid block types and field schemas. Flow validation can check a JSON definition without saving it.
What it helps with
- run a saved web-scraping flow
- retrieve structured output from a completed run
- inspect execution steps to diagnose a failure
- create a flow or adjust its blocks
- check account credits and cloud-run availability
Example prompts for the agent
- Run a saved Scrapeer flow and return its structured results.
- Inspect the steps from the latest Scrapeer run and identify where it failed.
- Create a Scrapeer flow; check the block catalog and validate the definition before saving.

Questions about Scrapeer
How do I install Scrapeer in Claude Code?
Run claude mcp add mcp-server -e SCRAPEER_API_KEY=<SCRAPEER_API_KEY> -- npx -y @scrapeer/mcp-server. Replace <SCRAPEER_API_KEY> with your Scrapeer API key.
What does Scrapeer do?
It gives an agent MCP access to Scrapeer flows, letting it run them, read results and execution history, and create or edit flows.
Why fetch the block catalog before editing a flow?
The catalog provides valid block types and their field schemas. Scrapeer recommends checking it before creating or changing a flow because guessed types or fields can fail validation.
