# AgentQL MCP Server This is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that integrates [AgentQL](https://agentql.com)'s data extraction capabilities. ## Features ### Tools - \`extract-web-data\` - extract structured data from a given 'url', using 'prompt' as a description of actual data and its fields to extract. ## Installation To use AgentQL MCP Server to extract data from web pages, you need to install it via npm, get an API key from our [Dev Portal](https://dev.agentql.com), and configure it in your favorite app that supports MCP. ### Install the package \`\`\`bash npm install -g agentql-mcp \`\`\` ### Configure Claude - Open Claude Desktop **Settings** via \`⌘\`+\`,\` (don't confuse with Claude Account Settings) - Go to **Developer** sidebar section - Click **Edit Config** and open \`claude_desktop_config.json\` file - Add \`agentql\` server inside \`mcpServers\` dictionary in the config file - Restart the app \`\`\`json title="claude_desktop_config.json" \{ "mcpServers": \{ "agentql": \{ "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "agentql-mcp"], "env": \{ "AGENTQL_API_KEY": "YOUR_API_KEY" \} \} \} \} \`\`\` Read more about MCP configuration in Claude [here](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/quickstart/user). ### Configure Cursor - Open **Cursor Settings** - Go to **MCP > MCP Servers** - Click **+ Add new MCP Server** - Enter the following: - Name: "agentql" (or your preferred name) - Type: "command" - Command: \`env AGENTQL_API_KEY=YOUR_API_KEY npx -y agentql-mcp\` Read more about MCP configuration in Cursor [here](https://docs.cursor.com/context/model-context-protocol). ### Configure Windsurf - Open **Windsurf: MCP Configuration Panel** - Click **Add custom server+** - Alternatively you can open \`~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json\` directly - Add \`agentql\` server inside \`mcpServers\` dictionary in the config file \`\`\`json title="mcp_config.json" \{ "mcpServers": \{ "agentql": \{ "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "agentql-mcp"], "env": \{ "AGENTQL_API_KEY": "YOUR_API_KEY" \} \} \} \} \`\`\` Read more about MCP configuration in Windsurf [here](https://docs.codeium.com/windsurf/mcp). ### Validate MCP integration Give your agent a task that will require extracting data from the web. For example: \`\`\`text Extract the list of videos from the page https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=agentql, every video should have a title, an author name, a number of views and a url to the video. Make sure to exclude ads items. Format this as a markdown table. \`\`\` > [!TIP] > In case your agent complains that it can't open urls or load content from the web instead of using AgentQL, try adding "use tools" or "use agentql tool" hint. ## Development Install dependencies: \`\`\`bash npm install \`\`\` Build the server: \`\`\`bash npm run build \`\`\` For development with auto-rebuild: \`\`\`bash npm run watch \`\`\` If you want to try out development version, you can use the following config instead of the default one: \`\`\`json \{ "mcpServers": \{ "agentql": \{ "command": "/path/to/agentql-mcp/dist/index.js", "env": \{ "AGENTQL_API_KEY": "YOUR_API_KEY" \} \} \} \} \`\`\` > [!NOTE] > Don't forget to remove the default AgentQL MCP server config to not confuse Claude with two similar servers. ## Debugging Since MCP servers communicate over stdio, debugging can be challenging. We recommend using the [MCP Inspector](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/inspector), which is available as a package script: \`\`\`bash npm run inspector \`\`\` The Inspector will provide a URL to access debugging tools in your browser.
