MCP server for Sessemi — scrape anti-bot protected sites from AI agents
Project description
sessemi-mcp
MCP server that gives AI agents the ability to scrape websites protected by Cloudflare, DataDome, and Akamai.
Works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, and any MCP-compatible client.
Zero framework dependencies — implements MCP protocol directly. Only depends on the sessemi Python client.
Install
pip install sessemi-mcp
Or run directly with uvx:
uvx sessemi-mcp
Setup
Get a free API key at app.sessemi.com.
Claude Desktop
Add to your Claude Desktop config (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS, %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json on Windows):
{
"mcpServers": {
"sessemi": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["sessemi-mcp"],
"env": {
"SESSEMI_KEY": "your_api_key"
}
}
}
}
Cursor
Add to .cursor/mcp.json in your project:
{
"mcpServers": {
"sessemi": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["sessemi-mcp"],
"env": {
"SESSEMI_KEY": "your_api_key"
}
}
}
}
Tools
scrape
Scrape a URL, bypassing anti-bot protection. Returns page content.
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
url |
string | Target URL (required) |
country |
string | Two-letter country code for geo-targeting (FR, US, DE). Auto-selects residential proxies. |
render |
bool | Force browser rendering for JS-heavy pages |
session |
string | Session name for cookie/IP persistence across requests |
headers |
string | Custom HTTP headers as JSON string |
credits
Check your remaining credit balance, tier, and usage.
Example
Ask Claude:
"Scrape the Idealista listings page for Madrid apartments"
Claude will call the scrape tool with the URL and country: "ES", get back the full HTML, and extract the data you need.
"How many credits do I have left?"
Claude calls credits and reports your balance.
How it works
Sessemi handles the hard parts automatically:
- Cloudflare — turnstile challenges, JS challenges, managed challenges
- DataDome — device checks, slider CAPTCHAs, interstitials
- Akamai — sensor validation, bot manager
Your AI agent sends a URL → Sessemi returns the page content. No browser config, no proxy setup, no CAPTCHA services.
