Arachne Mcp

Overview

Arachne Mcp is a Model Context Protocol server that brings 56 tools for web scraping, browser automation, vision, OCR, RAG, social research, GitHub integration, and visual regression testing into your AI workflow. It exposes these capabilities as tools that Claude, Cursor, and other MCP clients can invoke directly.

The server runs locally via the Python package arachne-mcp, installed through uvx. You'll need to provide an ARACHNE_API_KEY environment variable for authentication.
