Description

The Apify MCP Server exposes Apify Actors and helper tools over the Model Context Protocol so AI assistants can dynamically discover, add, and call ready-made scrapers, crawlers, and automation Actors from the Apify Store. It supports a hosted HTTPS endpoint (https://mcp.apify.com) with OAuth as well as a local stdio mode for CLI and desktop clients. The server also provides helper tools for searching documentation, inspecting actor runs and logs, and accessing datasets and key-value stores, enabling agents to fetch structured results or full actor outputs as needed.
