About
Weaviate's Model Context Protocol support has moved from a separate add-on into the core Weaviate database itself: as of v1.37.1, every Weaviate instance ships a built-in MCP server that AI assistants like Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Windsurf can connect to directly, with no standalone process to install or maintain. Enabling it is a single environment variable, `MCP_SERVER_ENABLED=true`, on the Weaviate server; the MCP endpoint then listens on the same port as the existing REST API at `/v1/mcp`, reuses Weaviate's existing API-key authentication, and respects the same RBAC permissions already configured for the cluster — so there is no separate credential or trust boundary to manage. Exposed tools cover the core vector-database workflow an AI agent needs: `weaviate-collections-get-config` inspects collection schemas, `weaviate-tenants-list` enumerates tenants in multi-tenant collections, `weaviate-query-hybrid` runs combined vector-plus-keyword hybrid search, and `weaviate-objects-upsert` creates or updates objects. The earlier standalone Go implementation that used to live in the weaviate/mcp-server-weaviate repository is now deprecated and unmaintained — its git history is kept only for reference — so teams should configure MCP through the main weaviate/weaviate server rather than looking for a separate package to install. Full setup, environment variables, and per-tool RBAC permission mapping are documented at docs.weaviate.io/weaviate/configuration/mcp-server.

Apify MCP Server
The Apify MCP server gives AI agents access to 6,000+ ready-made cloud scrapers, crawlers, and automation tools on the Apify Store — no infrastructure required. Connect to Apify Actors that extract data from social media platforms (Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn), search engines (Google, Bing), e-commerce sites (Amazon, eBay), maps (Google Maps), and virtually any website. Each Actor runs in the cloud with managed proxies, browser fingerprinting, and anti-bot bypass built in. Use the Apify MCP server to query Actors by task, stream results directly into your AI context, run custom scraping Actors from your Apify account, and chain multiple data extraction steps in a single workflow. Supports tool filtering to expose only the Actors you need, and integrates with Apify's RAG web browser Actor for retrieval-augmented generation use cases.
Firecrawl MCP Server
The Firecrawl MCP server gives your AI assistant the ability to crawl, scrape, and extract structured data from any website — turning raw HTML into clean, LLM-ready Markdown or JSON in seconds. Built by the Firecrawl team, it exposes tools for single-page scraping, deep site crawls (following internal links), and batch URL extraction, all with JavaScript rendering handled automatically so dynamic content is never missed. Developers use it to automate competitive research, build live knowledge bases, extract pricing tables, monitor documentation changes, or feed structured web data into RAG pipelines — all through natural-language prompts without writing a single scraper script. The Firecrawl MCP server handles rate limiting, retries, and proxy rotation behind the scenes. Authentication requires a Firecrawl API key (free tier available). Install with: npx firecrawl-mcp. Works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, and any MCP-compatible client. With Firecrawl, any public webpage becomes a structured data source your AI can reason over, compare, and act on — making it the go-to MCP server for web data extraction workflows.
Exa MCP Server
Exa's official MCP server connects AI assistants to a search engine purpose-built for AI, using neural embeddings to match on meaning rather than keywords so agents get clean, ready-to-use content instead of a page of blue links to re-parse. The default tool set covers web_search_exa for quick topical lookups and web_search_advanced_exa for full control over domains, date ranges, and content filters, plus specialized tools for code_search (searching real-world code and GitHub), company_research (building company profiles, competitor lists, and financials), crawling/web_fetch (pulling clean content from a specific URL), people_search and linkedin_search (public professional-profile lookups), and deep_researcher_start/check for long-running multi-step research tasks backed by Exa's Research API. The server is hosted at https://mcp.exa.ai/mcp — no local process to run — and connects via one-line setup in Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code, Claude Desktop (available as a native Connector), Codex, OpenCode, Windsurf, and Antigravity, authenticated with an EXA_API_KEY from the Exa dashboard. Tool exposure is tunable per client via a ?tools= query parameter on the endpoint URL, letting teams ship narrow, purpose-built configurations (e.g. company-research-only or LinkedIn-only agents) instead of exposing the full surface, and Exa ships ready-made Claude Skills/agent definitions for common patterns like company research and people search with built-in query-variation and token-isolation guidance.
