This is the third-party server itself — Odel doesn't run it. Hitting this URL directly talks straight to the upstream server with no auth or proxying. Connect through Odel to front it with managed auth.

ScrapeUnblocker remote MCP server

A hosted (HTTP) Model Context Protocol server for ScrapeUnblocker, deployed as a Vercel serverless function. It lets claude.ai (web and mobile), Claude Desktop, Claude Code, and any other MCP client fetch any web page's HTML - or AI-parsed JSON, or Google results - through ScrapeUnblocker's anti-bot API, billed to your own account.

Prefer a local install with no hosting? Use the stdio package instead: scrapeunblocker-mcp.

Endpoint

https://mcp.scrapeunblocker.com/mcp

You need a ScrapeUnblocker account - create a free one. There are two ways to authenticate, and you only need one of them.

A. Sign in with OAuth (recommended) - nothing to copy or paste. The server is an OAuth 2.1 Resource Server backed by Auth0, so the client runs a standard PKCE flow, and the server resolves your ScrapeUnblocker key server-side from the account you signed in with (the token is never passed through to the backend, per RFC 8707).

If your client asks for an OAuth client ID, use the public one - it is a PKCE client, so it carries no secret and is safe to share:

Leave the client secret field empty.

B. Bring your own API key - handy for scripts and clients without an OAuth flow. Supply the key any of three ways:

  1. ?key=YOUR_KEY (or ?token=YOUR_KEY) in the URL.
  2. Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY header (a non-JWT value).
  3. x-scrapeunblocker-key: YOUR_KEY header.

Listing the tools (initialize, tools/list) needs no credentials at all, so MCP directories and inspectors can introspect the server; actually running a tool does.

OAuth configuration (maintainers)

Env varPurpose
AUTH0_ISSUERAuth0 issuer URL, e.g. https://TENANT.auth0.com/ (trailing slash). Enables OAuth together with MCP_AUDIENCE.
MCP_AUDIENCECanonical MCP URI = the Auth0 API Identifier, https://mcp.scrapeunblocker.com/mcp. The token aud must match this.
MCP_EMAIL_CLAIMOptional namespaced claim carrying the user's email (set by an Auth0 Post-Login Action), e.g. https://scrapeunblocker.com/email. Falls back to the standard email claim.
MCP_RESOURCE_METADATA_URLOptional override for the RFC 9728 metadata URL advertised in WWW-Authenticate.
UTILS_API_BASE_URLutils-api base for the email_to_key lookup, e.g. https://utils-api.scrapeunblocker.com.
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID / AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY / AWS_REGIONIAM creds (SigV4, execute-api) for calling utils-api.

Discovery endpoints served (via vercel.json rewrites): /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource and /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource/mcp.

Add it to claude.ai

  1. Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector.
  2. URL: https://mcp.scrapeunblocker.com/mcp
  3. Under Advanced settings, set OAuth Client ID to 5BM5Wk2dE4ABkDITmuKfemPLnn3QQ8jd and leave OAuth Client Secret empty.
  4. Add, then sign in and Authorize. The tools appear across claude.ai web, mobile, and Claude Desktop.

Or skip OAuth entirely and paste a personalised URL instead: https://mcp.scrapeunblocker.com/mcp?key=YOUR_API_KEY

Add it to Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http scrapeunblocker "https://mcp.scrapeunblocker.com/mcp?key=YOUR_API_KEY"

Tools

ToolWhat it does
fetch_htmlFetch the fully rendered HTML of a URL. Optionally pass steps to interact with the page (search, click, type, paginate) in a real browser before capture.
fetch_parsedFetch a page and return AI-parsed structured JSON.
google_searchRun a Google search and return organic results as JSON.
list_elementsReturn a page's interactive elements (buttons, inputs, selects, links, forms) with ready-to-use selectors, as JSON, to build steps.

Interacting with a page (steps)

fetch_html accepts an optional steps array - an ordered list of browser actions run in a real browser after the page loads, before the HTML is captured. Supported actions: wait_for, wait_for_text, wait, click, type (human-like keystrokes), select, press_key, scroll. A typical flow is: call list_elements to discover selectors, then call fetch_html with steps to drive the page.

Steps are non-idempotent - the request runs once and is not retried. If a step fails (bad selector, element never appeared), the tool returns an HTTP 422 result naming the offending step (step_index, action, reason, selector) plus the page HTML at the point of failure, so you can correct the step.

Deploy (maintainers)

This is a standard Vercel project - no build step, the function lives in api/mcp.ts.

vercel            # preview
vercel --prod     # production

Then point the mcp.scrapeunblocker.com domain at the Vercel project. Scraping calls can be slow, so the function's maxDuration is set to 60s (raise it on a paid Vercel plan if you hit timeouts on heavy pages).
