How to use
brightdata-mcp is an MCP server that lets your AI assistant fetch web pages and run searches, then feed the results back to the model.
- Best for grounding an assistant in live, up-to-date information from the web.
- Works in any MCP-compatible client — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, and others.
- Add it once to your client config; its tools then appear to the assistant automatically.
