apify_actors-mcp-server

The Apify MCP Server is designed to facilitate interaction with Apify Actors through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). It allows AI assistants to utilize Apify Actors as tools for various tasks such as data extraction and web scraping. The server can operate in two modes: as an HTTP server using Server-Sent Events (SSE) or via standard input/output (stdio). This flexibility allows integration with different MCP clients like Claude Desktop and LibreChat. The server is pre-configured with several Apify Actors, but users can customize the configuration to include other Actors. The server does not currently provide resources or prompts, but future updates plan to include Apify's dataset and key-value store as resources.
