Introducing MCP for Hyperbrowser
I think at this point, if you're even vaguely AI adjacent, you know of the Model Context Protocol, but if you don't, it's a standardized method of communicating between LLMs and external tools. Today, I'd like to introduce the MCP server for Hyperbrowser, and we're starting it off with the ability to scrape, crawl, and extract structured data.
Let's dive in.
scrape_webpage
Hyperbrowser's MCP server can scrape a webpage and return the page's content as HTML, markdown, links, and as a screenshot. Multiple outputs are supported to allow for maximum flexibility.
Example Prompt:
Scrape the product details page for the latest iPhone on Apple's website and convert it into readable markdown format with all specifications and pricing information. If it fails, exit gracefully
crawl_webpages
The MCP server can crawl through multiple linked pages on a website to collect comprehensive data. The output formats are the same as the scrape-webpage tool.
Example Prompt:
Crawl through all blog posts on the Hackernews website published in the last day, collecting article titles, publication dates, author names, and links to all the articles that talk about deepseek. Limit to 10 pages crawled.
extract_structured_data
Hyperbrowser can also extract structured data from a webpage. This is useful for extracting data from webpages that are not structured, or for extracting data from webpages that are not easily scraped.
Example Prompt:
Search on amazon for mushrooms and get me the actual price, discounted price (if any), product name, product company name (if any), and stars that the product has for the the top 10 results in json. Use the extract-structured-data tool, do not retry and exit gracefully. Also use a proxy
