Skrape MCP Server turns webpages into clean, LLM-ready Markdown and integrates smoothly with Claude Desktop and other MCP-compatible applications. It supports dynamic content through JavaScript rendering and outputs a consistent, compact Markdown format optimized for AI processing.

How to use

You use the Skrape MCP Server by running it locally and connecting your MCP client or Claude Desktop to the server. The server exposes a single tool you can call to convert any webpage into structured Markdown. In your conversations with Claude or another MCP-enabled assistant, you invoke the tool to fetch a page and return the processed Markdown for downstream AI tasks.

How to install

Prerequisites: ensure you have Node.js and npm installed on your system.

Option 1: Install via Smithery

npx -y @smithery/cli install @skrapeai/skrape-mcp --client claude

Option 2: Manual installation

Get your API key from skrape.ai
Install dependencies and build the server

npm install
npm run build

Add the server config to Claude Desktop. Create or edit the configuration file in your user directory as shown below and insert the provided configuration with your paths and API key.

On MacOS, open the file in your editor:

nano ~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

On Windows, open the config file in Notepad:

notepad %APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

      "command": "node",
      "args": ["path/to/skrape-mcp/build/index.js"],
