It drives the SF command line and saved crawl database directly, so Claude (or any MCP-compatible client) can run crawls, export crawl data, and analyze the results with the Screaming Frog GUI closed: on your laptop, on a server, or inside scheduled audits and CI pipelines. This is a community project, not affiliated with Screaming Frog. Since SEO Spider v24 there is also an official MCP built into the app. The two work differently and solve different problems. How this differs from the official Screaming Frog MCP Screaming Frog shipped an official MCP server in SEO Spider v24. It's substantial: around 29 tools covering crawl control (start, pause, resume, progress), reports and bulk exports with field selection, URL-level inspection, screenshots, embeddings exports, and optionally a Node.js script runner with npm and filesystem read/write tools. It runs in two modes, either a Streamable HTTP server inside the open app, or a STDIO mode where the MCP client launches the Spider itself, headless. Setup is documented for Claude Desktop and LM Studio. If you want maximum capability in an interactive session (visualizations, crawl comparison, screenshots, scripted post-processing of exports), use the official MCP. It does far more, and it's maintained by the vendor. This server makes a different trade: it's a small, deliberately limited wrapper around SF's C","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/bzsasson","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/bzsasson/screaming-frog-mcp/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
