CrustAPI MCP server

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):

"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

npm install

"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

CRUSTAPI_API_KEY=key_live_xxxx node test-client.mjs

This spawns the server over stdio, lists the tools, and calls one.
