Novada MCP

One MCP server for the entire live web. Search, extract, scrape, crawl, proxy, browser automation, and AI-powered research — behind a single hosted connection, or one local install if you'd rather run it yourself.

Free to start — $10 in free credits, up to 1,000 API calls/month, no credit card needed

✅ Works with any MCP client — Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code, or npx locally🎯 15 typed per-platform scrapers — Amazon, Google, LinkedIn, TikTok, … each a closed operation enum, so an agent can't call an invalid op
🎁 $10 free credits — no credit card needed — up to 1,000 calls/month⚡ Hosted-first, zero install — point at one URL, or self-host in one command

Quickstart

Novada is hosted-first — there's nothing to install. Point your client at the hosted URL and you're done.

Security note: the hosted URL contains your API key in the ?token= parameter — treat it like a password. Never share it, never post it publicly, and never configure it as a shared or organization-level connector.

claude.ai (web)

  1. Go to Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector.
  2. Name it Novada.
  3. Paste the URL (contains your key — see security note above):
    https://mcp.novada.com/mcp?token=YOUR_KEY
    
  4. Click Add.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http novada "https://mcp.novada.com/mcp?token=YOUR_KEY"

Full per-client install (Cursor/Windsurf/VS Code + local self-host) → npm-package/README.md.

Try it

novada_setup()                                          — validates your key, shows balance
novada_search({query: "Claude MCP tutorials"})          — web search
novada_extract({url: "https://example.com"})            — read any URL
novada_research({question: "how do MCP servers work?"}) — parallel multi-source research

Get your key

  1. Sign up at novada.com — no credit card required.
  2. Copy your API key from novada.com.
  3. You start with $10 in free credits, capped at 1,000 calls/month. Check what's left any time with novada_account({section: "balance"}) or novada_setup().

How to choose a tool

How to choose a Novada MCP tool — decision guide

These are the tools you reach for most:

ToolUse it when
novada_setupFirst run — validate your key and see your balance. Start here.
novada_searchFind pages by query (google / duckduckgo / yandex; time, domain, geo filters).
novada_extractRead one known URL — or up to 10 in parallel — through anti-bot pages.
novada_researchAnswer a complex question — parallel multi-source search + extraction in one call.
novada_scrapeStructured records from 16 platforms (Amazon, LinkedIn, TikTok, …). Plus 15 typed per-platform toolsnovada_scrape_amazon, _google, _linkedin, … — each a closed operation enum.
novada_crawlPull content from a bounded set of related pages (≤20) on one site.
novada_mapDiscover what URLs exist on a site before fetching.
novada_browserInteract with a page — click, type, screenshot, run JS.
novada_proxyRoute your own HTTP client through a specific IP type / country / session.

Not sure? Call novada_discover and it returns the full catalog with each tool's status.

📚 Full reference — all 38 tools →

38 tools across 6 categories. Self-host (npx novada-mcp) exposes all 38. The hosted default surface (mcp.novada.com) exposes 30 — the same registry minus 8 tools that don't apply to a stateless serverless endpoint: novada_browser_flow (needs a persistent browser session), novada_site_copy (writes files to disk), novada_ip_whitelist / novada_static_ip_mgmt / novada_capture_apikey (write-gated account ops), novada_session_stats / novada_search_feedback (per-process in-memory state), and novada_verify — it is core-derived, not a hand-curated subset. Call novada_discover on your connection to see exactly what's available on it.


Why Novada

  • 15 dedicated per-platform scrapers. novada_scrape_amazon, _google, _bing, _duckduckgo, _yandex, _youtube, _instagram, _facebook, _tiktok, _x, _walmart, _shein, _linkedin, _github, _perplexity — each exposes a closed, typed operation enum scoped to that platform instead of the generic novada_scrape's open platform+operation string pair, so an agent can't guess an invalid operation for the wrong platform.
  • Honest tool surface. Every listed operation is verified-working — operations we can't currently deliver are marked and excluded, not left in to fail on you mid-task.
  • Contract-tested self-report. Tool descriptions are tested against actual behavior, not just written and forgotten — what a tool claims to return is checked against what it actually returns.
  • Drift-guarded tool registry. npm-package/src/tools/registry.ts is the single source of truth for the tool catalog; a test asserts the registered tools, the wired tools, and the novada_discover output can never diverge.
  • confirm:true write-gate. Every mutating tool (proxy sub-account creation, IP whitelist changes, static IP purchases, capture-key resets) requires an explicit two-step confirmation — no silent writes.
  • Callable onboarding. novada_discover and novada_setup are tools your agent can call itself to find the right tool or validate a key, without ever reading this README.

Repository layout

This is a monorepo with two artifacts:

  • npm-package/ — the novada-mcp npm package. Local stdio MCP server (npx novada-mcp); source of truth for all tool logic.
  • hosted-server/ — what runs at https://mcp.novada.com. An HTTP wrapper (auth, quota, rate-limit) on Vercel around the npm package's built output.

Full architecture map (entrances, dispatch core, where-does-X-live) → ARCHITECTURE.md; contributor routing → CONTRIBUTING.
