Zyte MCP provides coding agents with hosted Model Context Protocol tools to interface with Zyte API and Scrapy Cloud through a simple OAuth setup. Agents use an escalation ladder ranging from simple HTTP Markdown requests to full browser-driven sessions for rendering complex pages and screenshots. The system also extracts structured product details like prices and stock status without requiring manual CSS selectors. Because assistants default to built-in retrieval methods, users must explicitly prompt them to invoke Zyte tools.

Coding agents have their own fetch and search tools and often use them first, which works until a page returns a 403 and the agent has no other way in. Zyte MCP is Zyte's hosted Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, and it gives your agent Zyte API and Scrapy Cloud tools. You can use these to read pages that plain HTTP requests get blocked on, take screenshots, pull products and links as structured fields, search as seen from another country, price a site before you scrape it, check what the agent spent, and run Scrapy Cloud jobs.
Here’s a list of my favourite top Zyte API usage ranked in order. The CLAUDE.md / AGENTS.md, edits and skill ideas under each item are my personal suggestions.
Connect it to your agent
Zyte MCP is a hosted server at https://mcp.zyte.com/v1/mcp, so there is nothing to install, and your client connects to it with OAuth. In Claude Code you add the server with one command, then, as the Zyte MCP page describes, run /mcp inside Claude Code to connect your Zyte account:
Novel electronic materials are being engineered to provide robotic systems with flexible, stretchable, and soft physical capabilities. Cambridge-based DZP Technologies is driving this integration by leveraging advanced materials chemistry to manufacture printed electronics specifically tailored for dexterous robotics. These innovations aim to expand the structural adaptability and overall functionality of modern robotic systems.
Forensic investigators with TRM and Chainalysis have identified elite cyber unit TraderTraitor as the likely culprit behind the unprecedented security breach. The incident raises severe concerns about the crypto exchange's internal hot-wallet authorization controls and highlights the persistent threat state-sponsored actors pose to centralized digital asset platforms. Binance has pledged full reimbursement for impacted users as it coordinates asset recovery with international authorities.
Tech giants are attempting to transform underpowered smart displays into capable, centralized hubs for daily household coordination. By integrating computer-grade processors, both companies seek to provide frictionless shared access for family members checking schedules and managing connected devices. This hardware upgrade marks a substantial departure from the budget-friendly, limited utility screens that previously dominated the category.
