  "mcpServers": {
    "Bright Data": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@brightdata/mcp"],

    }
  }
}

🚀 Pricing & Modes

💡 How the free tier works: Your account gets 5,000 credits/month (~$7.50 value), auto-renewed on the 1st with no credit card required. MCP requests draw from this shared pool — base tools (search_engine, scrape_as_markdown, discover) cost 1 credit per request, while web_data_* tools cost 1 credit per record returned. Unused credits don't roll over, and when they run out requests stop (no surprise charges unless you've deposited funds). Pro mode is not included in the free tier and incurs additional charges based on usage.

🧠 Advanced Tool Selection

• GROUPS lets you enable curated tool bundles. Use comma-separated group IDs such as ecommerce,browser.
• TOOLS adds explicit tool names on top of the selected groups.
• Mode priority: PRO_MODE=true (all tools) → GROUPS / TOOLS (whitelist) → default rapid mode (base toolkit).
• Base tools always enabled: search_engine, search_engine_batch, scrape_as_markdown, scrape_batch, discover.
• Group ID custom is reserved; use TOOLS for bespoke picks.

Claude Desktop example

  "mcpServers": {
    "Bright Data": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@brightdata/mcp"],
      "env": {

        "GROUPS": "browser,advanced_scraping",
        "TOOLS": "extract"
      }
    }
  }
}

Coding agent example (Claude Code / Cursor / Windsurf)

Give your coding agent real-time package intelligence — latest versions, READMEs, dependencies, and metadata from npm and PyPI without scraping:

  "mcpServers": {
    "Bright Data": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@brightdata/mcp"],
      "env": {
        "API_TOKEN": "<your-api-token-here>",
        "GROUPS": "code"
      }
    }
  }
}

🔧 Configuration

Basic Setup

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "Bright Data": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@brightdata/mcp"],
      "env": {
        "API_TOKEN": "your-token-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Advanced Configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "Bright Data": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@brightdata/mcp"],
      "env": {
        "API_TOKEN": "your-token-here",
        "PRO_MODE": "true",              // Enable all 60+ tools
        "RATE_LIMIT": "100/1h",          // Custom rate limiting
        "WEB_UNLOCKER_ZONE": "custom",   // Custom unlocker zone
        "BROWSER_ZONE": "custom_browser", // Custom browser zone
        "POLLING_TIMEOUT": "600"         // Polling timeout in seconds (default: 600)
      }
    }
  }
}

Environment Variables

Notes:

• POLLING_TIMEOUT controls how long web_data_* tools wait for results. Each second = 1 polling attempt.
• Lower values (e.g., 300) will fail faster on slow data collections.
• Higher values (e.g., 1200) allow more time for complex scraping tasks.
