## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).


# README

## MCP Server Data Extractor

Connect to any MCP (Model Context Protocol) server and extract tool schemas, resource definitions, and prompt templates.

### Why This Actor?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open protocol that enables AI models to interact with external tools and data sources securely. This actor helps you discover and inspect MCP server capabilities:

- **AI Agent Developers**: Quickly see what tools an MCP server offers
- **LLM Integrators**: Get the JSON schemas you need for function calling
- **Tool Builders**: Verify your MCP server's tool definitions
- **System Administrators**: Audit MCP server endpoints

### Input

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `mcpServerUrl` | string | — | URL of the MCP server endpoint |
| `requestTimeout` | integer | 30 | Timeout per request (seconds) |
| `includeResources` | boolean | true | List available resources |
| `includePrompts` | boolean | true | List available prompts |
| `serverHeaders` | object | {} | Custom HTTP headers (auth tokens, etc.) |

### Output

Each dataset entry represents a tool, resource, or prompt definition:

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `type` | string | Entry type: `tool`, `resource`, or `prompt` |
| `name` | string | Name of the tool/resource/prompt |
| `description` | string | Human-readable description |
| `inputSchema` | string | JSON schema for input parameters |
| `serverName` | string | Name of the MCP server |
| `serverVersion` | string | Server version |
| `uri` | string | Resource URI (resources only) |
| `mimeType` | string | Resource MIME type (resources only) |

### Example

```json
{
  "mcpServerUrl": "https://mcp.example.com/api"
}
````

### Protocol Support

- JSON-RPC 2.0 over HTTP POST
- MCP protocol version 2024-11-05
- Supports `tools/list`, `resources/list`, `prompts/list`

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "mcpServerUrl": "https://mcp.example.com/mcp"
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("yourwingman/mcp-server-data-extractor").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});

## Python example

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

# Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
# Replace '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token.
client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = { "mcpServerUrl": "https://mcp.example.com/mcp" }

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("yourwingman/mcp-server-data-extractor").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print("💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/" + run["defaultDatasetId"])
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item)
