smart-crawler MCP

E-commerce competitor intelligence, VOC review sentiment, Amazon ASIN analysis, Google Shopping landscape, on-demand URL scraping, and Reddit subreddit growth playbooks — exposed to AI agents as a hosted Model Context Protocol server.

• Endpoint: https://smartcrawler.io/mcp/ (streamable-http)
• Auth: Authorization: Bearer sck_... — generate a key in the smart-crawler console
• Registry: io.github.shulex-voc/smart-crawler

This repository hosts the public MCP manifest for the smart-crawler service. It is the discovery/connection entry point — the service itself is hosted.

Claude Code

export SMARTCRAWLER_API_KEY=sck_...
claude mcp add --scope user --transport http smart-crawler \
  https://smartcrawler.io/mcp/ \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $SMARTCRAWLER_API_KEY"

--scope user makes the server visible in every project. Without it, claude mcp add defaults to local scope (only the current directory), a common "I added it but /mcp is empty" pitfall. Verify with claude mcp list or /mcp.
