Runs ScrapingAnt web-scraping operations from an agent through Composio's Rube MCP, discovering tool schemas before executing.
About
Wires the ScrapingAnt toolkit into an agent via Composio's Rube MCP, using RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS to get current schemas before running calls. A developer uses it to automate ScrapingAnt scraping tasks inside a Claude agent workflow.
- No API keys needed, just add the Rube MCP endpoint
- Verify connection is ACTIVE before executing tools

Scrapingant Automation via Rube MCP
Automate Scrapingant operations through Composio's Scrapingant toolkit via Rube MCP.
Toolkit docs: composio.dev/toolkits/scrapingant
Prerequisites
- Rube MCP must be connected (RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS available)
- Active Scrapingant connection via
RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONSwith toolkitscrapingant - Always call
RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLSfirst to get current tool schemas
Setup
Get Rube MCP: Add https://rube.app/mcp as an MCP server in your client configuration. No API keys needed — just add the endpoint and it works.
1. Verify Rube MCP is available by confirming RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS responds 2. Call RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS with toolkit scrapingant 3. If connection is not ACTIVE, follow the returned auth link to complete setup 4. Confirm connection status shows ACTIVE before running any workflows
Tool Discovery
Always discover available tools before executing workflows:
RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS
queries: [{use_case: "Scrapingant operations", known_fields: ""}]
session: {generate_id: true}This returns available tool slugs, input schemas, recommended execution plans, and known pitfalls.
Core Workflow Pattern
Step 1: Discover Available Tools
RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS
queries: [{use_case: "your specific Scrapingant task"}]
session: {id: "existing_session_id"}Step 2: Check Connection
RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS
toolkits: ["scrapingant"]
session_id: "your_session_id"Step 3: Execute Tools
RUBE_MULTI_EXECUTE_TOOL
tools: [{
tool_slug: "TOOL_SLUG_FROM_SEARCH",
arguments: {/* schema-compliant args from search results */}
}]
memory: {}
session_id: "your_session_id"Known Pitfalls
- Always search first: Tool schemas change. Never hardcode tool slugs or arguments without calling
RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS - Check connection: Verify
RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONSshows ACTIVE status before executing tools - Schema compliance: Use exact field names and types from the search results
- Memory parameter: Always include
memoryinRUBE_MULTI_EXECUTE_TOOLcalls, even if empty ({}) - Session reuse: Reuse session IDs within a workflow. Generate new ones for new workflows
- Pagination: Check responses for pagination tokens and continue fetching until complete
Quick Reference
| Operation | Approach |
|---|---|
| Find tools | RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS with Scrapingant-specific use case |
| Connect | RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS with toolkit scrapingant |
| Execute | RUBE_MULTI_EXECUTE_TOOL with discovered tool slugs |
| Bulk ops | RUBE_REMOTE_WORKBENCH with run_composio_tool() |
| Full schema | RUBE_GET_TOOL_SCHEMAS for tools with schemaRef |
