FineData MCP Server

MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for FineData web scraping API.

Enables AI agents (Claude, Cursor, GPT, …) to fetch pages that need a full browser and return clean data:

  • JavaScript rendering and browser actions
  • Captcha solving
  • Datacenter / ISP / residential / mobile proxies
  • Markdown or JSON output (markdown by default)
  • AI structured extraction
  • Local stdio or remote Streamable HTTP (+ OAuth 2.1)

Version: 0.3.1

Modes

Start with a plain request. Stealth and proxy modes are available when a page needs a full browser; they consume more tokens than a plain request. Exact rates are in the documentation and via get_usage. Gateway may apply a domain strategy that overrides the requested engine or proxy; trust tokens_used in the response.

Installation

uvx (recommended)

curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
FINEDATA_API_KEY=fd_xxx uvx finedata-mcp

pip

pip install finedata-mcp
FINEDATA_API_KEY=fd_xxx finedata-mcp

npx

npx -y @finedata/mcp-server

Cursor

~/.cursor/mcp.json (Windows: %USERPROFILE%\.cursor\mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "finedata": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["finedata-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "FINEDATA_API_KEY": "fd_your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor deeplink (after publishing): install via MCP directory / “Add to Cursor”.

Remote (Streamable HTTP)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "finedata": {
      "url": "https://mcp.finedata.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer fd_your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

OAuth 2.1 (Claude.ai / ChatGPT connectors): register via AS at https://api.finedata.ai, consent in the cabinet, then use the access token as Bearer.

Environment

Variable Required Default Description
FINEDATA_API_KEY stdio: yes — API key
FINEDATA_API_URL no https://api.finedata.ai API base
FINEDATA_TIMEOUT no 180 HTTP client timeout (seconds)
FINEDATA_MCP_HOST HTTP 0.0.0.0 Bind host
FINEDATA_MCP_PORT HTTP 8080 Bind port
FINEDATA_OAUTH_ISSUER remote OAuth — AS URL (gateway)
FINEDATA_MCP_RESOURCE_URL remote OAuth — Public MCP URL
FINEDATA_JWT_SECRET remote OAuth — Verify aud=mcp JWTs

Tools

Tool Purpose
scrape_url Sync scrape with GET, read-only (markdown default)
send_http_request Sync POST / PUT / PATCH / DELETE through the same pipeline
scrape_async Async job, GET (formats=['markdown'] default)
get_job_status Poll job (markdown, not raw HTML)
cancel_job Cancel job
list_jobs List jobs
batch_scrape Up to 100 URLs (string or {url,...} objects)
get_batch_status Batch progress
get_usage Period usage via api_tokens_used

Notable parameters: use_antibot, proxy_country, proxy_sticky, proxy_profile_id, auto_retry, stealth modes, formats, only_main_content, extract_*.

Async/batch: no csv/xlsx formats (sync only).

HTTP transport

finedata-mcp --transport http --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8080

Health: GET /health. Protected resource metadata is served at the path-scoped URL for the endpoint — GET /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource/mcp — because FINEDATA_MCP_RESOURCE_URL carries the /mcp path. Clients normally find it from the WWW-Authenticate header on a 401 rather than guessing.
