Novada MCP Server

Novada MCP MCP server is a hosted integration for AI assistants that speak the Model Context Protocol. [screenshot: Novada connected in an MCP client, tool list visible].

What you get

• Honest tool surface. — Every listed operation is verified-working — operations we can't currently deliver are marked and excluded, not left in to fail on you mid-task
• Contract-tested self-report. — Tool descriptions are tested against actual behavior, not just written and forgotten — what a tool claims to return is checked against what it actually returns
• Drift-guarded tool registry. — npm-package/src/tools/registry.ts is the single source of truth for the tool catalog; a test asserts the registered tools, the wired tools, and the novada_discover output can never diverge
• confirm:true write-gate. — Every mutating tool (proxy sub-account creation, IP whitelist changes, static IP purchases, capture-key resets) requires an explicit two-step confirmation — no silent writes
• Callable onboarding. — novada_discover and novada_setup are tools your agent can call itself to find the right tool or validate a key, without ever reading this README

What the assistant can call

Once Novada MCP is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:

• Contract — tested self-report.** Tool descriptions are tested against actual behavior, not just written and forgotten — what a tool claims to return is checked
• Drift — guarded tool registry.** npm-package/src/tools/registry.ts is the single source of truth for the tool catalog; a test asserts the registered tools
• Website — novada.com
• GitHub — github.com/NovadaLabs/novada-mcp
• Issues — github.com/NovadaLabs/novada-mcp/issues
• novada_setup — First run — validate your key and see your balance. Start here
• novada_search — Find pages by query (google / duckduckgo / yandex; time, domain, geo filters)
• novada_extract — Read one known URL — or up to 10 in parallel — through anti-bot pages
• novada_research — Answer a complex question — parallel multi-source search + extraction in one call
• novada_scrape — Structured records from 16 platforms (Amazon, LinkedIn, TikTok, …). Plus 15 typed per-platform tools — novada_scrape_amazon, _google, _linkedin
• novada_crawl — Pull content from a bounded set of related pages (≤20) on one site
• novada_map — Discover what URLs exist on a site before fetching

Configuration and credentials

You will need one environment variable: YOUR_KEY. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.

Setting it up

Being a remote server, there is no local install. You register the endpoint with your client, authorise it once, and the tools appear.

Choosing this one

This sits in the developer tooling group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. Novada MCP's toolset — Contract, Drift, Website and 11 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by novadalabs; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

This entry was verified against Novada MCP's own documentation before publication; SyncDev keeps the directory reviewed rather than auto-generated.

Before you rely on it

• Your data travels to the provider's service, so the usual questions apply about what you send and what they retain.
• With 14 tools registered it takes up a noticeable share of the context window; turn it off in projects that never touch Novada MCP.
• Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients — if no tools show up, check the environment block first.
• MCP clients confirm each tool call by default. Leave that on until you have watched what the novada mcp mcp server does with a few real requests.
