ScraperCity CLI & MCP Server - B2B lead generation for AI agents
ScraperCity CLI & MCP Server - B2B lead generation for AI agents. That is what the scrapercity cli mcp server brings to an AI assistant: the same capability, reachable through the Model Context Protocol rather than a separate app or dashboard.
Pull leads, validate emails, find mobile numbers, and scrape business data - all from your AI agent, CLI, or code.
The server publishes 2 tools. What each one is for:
Apollo — B2B contacts by job title, industry, locationBuiltWith — All sites using a technologyInstallation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at scrapercity on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.
Configuration is passed through the environment: SCRAPERCITY_API_KEY. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.
Plenty of developer tooling servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. Scrapercity Cli's toolset — Apollo, BuiltWith — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by scrapercity; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.
