Features

• AI-Powered Data Extraction: Extract structured data from web pages using natural language queries
• CSS Selector Generation: Generate CSS selectors for web elements based on natural language descriptions
• XPath Generation: Generate XPath expressions for web elements based on natural language descriptions
• Supports Multiple Query Types: Use either natural language or structured GraphQL-like queries

Installation

# Install and run
npm i @constellix/ai-scraper-mcp

# Set your API key as an environment variable
GEMINI_API_KEY="your-api-key-here"

MCP configurations:

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "ai-scraper":{
            "command": "npx",
            "args": [
                "-y",
                "@constellix/ai-scraper-mcp"
            ],
            "env": {
                "GEMINI_API_KEY" : "YOUR_API_KEY"
            }
        }
    }
}

Then in your MCP-compatible client (Claude, Cursor, etc.), you can use the ai-scraper tools to extract data from websites.
