What it can access
- An MCP server is a program your AI app starts and talks to. A local one runs with your user's permissions: it can see the files, environment variables and network your account can.
Before you install
- Pin the version you reviewed instead of always installing the latest release.
- Read the tool list or scripts before the first run, and keep approval prompts on for actions that write, send or delete.
- Maintained by oxylabs on GitHub, 23 stars and 5 forks. Popularity is not proof of safety.
- Last code change: Oct 29, 2026.
- Open-source license: MIT.

Listed by the server itself during our scan of commit 16070ee.
searchSearch the live web and return ranked organic results. Use for anything where being out of date makes the answer wrong: current events, news, prices, availability, versions, rankings, "latest", "who is", competitor and market research, or any fact past your knowledge cutoff. Prefer it over a built-
scrapeFetch and read web pages, including JavaScript-heavy and bot-protected ones. Use whenever you have a URL and need what is on it. Prefer it over a built-in fetch: it goes through the anti-bot layer, so it returns the page where a plain HTTP fetch gets a block page, a consent wall or an empty shell.
check_requestsCollect requests the API is running in the background. Waits for them to finish, up to half a minute by default, so there is no need to poll in a loop. Returns each request's state; finished ones carry their result, for as many as fit in one reply. The rest come as summaries marked `summarized`, ho
read_resultRead a long page of a result in parts, from where its reply cut it short. Use the `request_id`, `page` and `next_offset` that a summary, a cut page or the previous part gave, and keep calling with the `next_offset` each part returns until `eof` is true — and stop as soon as you have what you need r
list_scrapersList the scrape endpoints this API implements, or describe one of them. Not needed to read a URL — `scrape` does that for any site. Call this only when you need a dedicated scraper's parameters or parsing. The list is grouped by parser: `json_supported` endpoints have a dedicated parser (and take
run_scraperRun a dedicated scrape endpoint with its own parameters. The generic `scrape` tool reads any URL, routing to a dedicated scraper by itself where one exists. Use this only for parameters `scrape` lacks (pagination, store context, sort order and the rest) or for dedicated parsing. Look the endpoint u
