# CrustAPI MCP server
[](https://smithery.ai/servers/crustapi/search)
Give any MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, Claude Code) live Google and public LinkedIn
data. It calls the hosted CrustAPI `/v1/search` and `/v1/linkedin` endpoints.
## Tools
- `search` covers the whole Google menu behind one tool. Pick the surface with `type`: `web`,
`maps`, `places`, `news`, `shopping`, `images`, `videos`, `scholar`, `patents`, `autocomplete`.
- `scrape_webpage` fetches any URL as clean text + metadata + JSON-LD (RAG-ready).
- `get_reviews` pulls Google reviews for a business (by `placeId`/`cid`/`fid` or a name query).
- `linkedin` covers public LinkedIn data behind one tool. Pick the surface with `type`: `profile`,
`company`, `posts`, `jobs`, or `search` (people search). Add `enrich=true` on people search to
get each person's full profile.
You only pay for successful results; empty results are free. Get a free key (3,000 credits/month,
no card) at **https://crustapi.com**.
## Installation
Recommended: npx, nothing to install.
Add this to your MCP client config (e.g. Claude Desktop's `claude_desktop_config.json`):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"crustapi": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "crustapi-mcp"],
"env": { "CRUSTAPI_API_KEY": "key_live_xxxx" }
}
}
}
```
Restart the client and the four tools appear. Requires Node 18+.
### From source
```bash
npm install
```
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"crustapi": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/absolute/path/to/crustapi-mcp/server.mjs"],
"env": { "CRUSTAPI_API_KEY": "key_live_xxxx" }
}
}
}
```
## Env
| var | purpose |
|---|---|
| `CRUSTAPI_API_KEY` | your CrustAPI key, sent as `x-api-key` (required) |
| `CRUSTAPI_BASE_URL` | defaults to `https://crustapi.com`; point at a local URL for testing |
## Usage
- `search(type="web", q="best serp api 2026")`
- `search(type="maps", q="dentists", location="Miami, FL", limit=20)`
- `search(type="news", q="openai")`
- `scrape_webpage(url="https://example.com/pricing", includeMarkdown=true)`
- `get_reviews(q="Blue Bottle Coffee", sortBy="newest")`
- `linkedin(type="profile", url="https://www.linkedin.com/in/williamhgates")`
- `linkedin(type="search", keywords="head of growth fintech", enrich=true)`
Every response is stable, structured JSON.
## Test it
```bash
CRUSTAPI_API_KEY=key_live_xxxx node test-client.mjs
```
This spawns the server over stdio, lists the tools, and calls one.
