Smithery MCP Scraper

🔎 Find public Smithery MCP servers

Smithery MCP Registry Scraper is for developers, AI tooling teams, and researchers who need public MCP server data. Browse or search the Smithery registry, then save server names, descriptions, links, status facts, and optional capability definitions in a clean dataset.

• Review Smithery AI skills by searching the public server catalog.
• Export the Smithery registry for directory or market research.
• Run an MCP server search for a topic or tool.
• Build a list from the public MCP registry.
• Collect known Smithery MCP servers by exact server ID.

📦 Data you can get

Each saved row is one Smithery MCP server. It can include:

• Smithery server ID, name, description, registry page, homepage, icon, and creation time
• use count, verification status, and whether Smithery publishes the server
• remote and hosted status, hosted URL, and connection type
• structured tools, resources, prompts, counts, and connection settings when capability details are enabled

The Actor uses public Smithery data. It does not need your Smithery login or credentials. It does not call or operate the servers it finds.

🚀 Run the Actor

1. Choose Catalog, Search, or Server IDs.
2. Fill the matching target section if needed.
3. Choose whether to keep only verified servers or include capability details.
4. Set Maximum servers, or leave it empty to return all available results until the source is exhausted.
5. Start the run and open the dataset.

Capability collection takes more time because it asks Smithery for more server details. If the same server is found more than once, only its first eligible match is saved.

Field	Type	What it does
target	string	Chooses Catalog, Search, or Server IDs. Values in the other target sections are ignored.
query	string	Sets the one keyword search used when target is Search.

💳 Pricing

This Actor uses pay-per-event pricing. You are charged for each Smithery MCP server saved to the dataset. Empty searches, unknown IDs, skipped duplicate matches, and work that saves no server do not create this server charge.

🔌 Integrations

Use the dataset through the Apify API, download it as JSON, CSV, or Excel, run it on a schedule, or send rows to other tools with Apify integrations.

❓ FAQ

Does this Actor run MCP servers?

No. It finds and exports public registry records. It does not connect to or call the listed servers.

Can I collect only verified Smithery servers?

Yes. Turn on Verified servers only for a Catalog or Search run. Verification is the status reported by Smithery, not a new check by this Actor.

What happens when capability details are off?

The row still contains the main server metadata. capabilities is null, and some connection fields can also be null when Smithery does not provide them in the main result.

Can I export the full Smithery catalog?

Yes. Choose Catalog and leave Maximum servers empty. The Actor returns all available results until the source is exhausted.

Is this a Smithery AI alternative?

It is an export tool for public Smithery registry data. It does not replace Smithery hosting, installation, or MCP server use.
