Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Ask before you scrape: is a site open, may I fetch this URL, and how do I extract a page. No key.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 7, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

  • check_site

    Can I scrape this site, and how? Returns a verdict (open, guarded, hostile, blocked), a hostility score, a recommended approach with steps and risks, bot protections, robots.txt and AI-crawler policy, machine-readable surfaces (sitemap, llms.txt, JSON-LD), and eu_ai_training: the

  • get_playbook

    What should I build with this site, and how? Give a domain and, optionally, a goal in plain words (for example "price alerts", "sales leads", "new jobs", "change log", "knowledge base"). Returns the best-matching workflow for that site: what it does, its cadence, a trigger, colle

  • list_sites

    List the sites in the dataset, optionally by category or verdict. Use it to find easy targets or to see what is covered.

  • xray_page

    How do I extract the data from THIS page? Fetches one public page and returns a ranked extraction plan: embedded JSON, JSON-LD, repeated records with CSS selectors and field names, tables, feeds, hidden API calls. Each source has a reliability, proof rows pulled from the real pag

  • xray_diagram

    Draw a page's anatomy as an Excalidraw diagram: its regions, the ranked ways to get its data, proof rows, the best route and what the page is made of. Returns a download link for the .excalidraw file (give it to the user; it opens at excalidraw.com or in Obsidian) and a file_name

  • search_sites

    Find sites in the dataset by a word: a name, host, category (jobs, shop, news, gov), country or verdict. Use it to discover what is covered before calling check_site.

  • can_fetch

    Does robots.txt allow fetching this exact URL? Fetches the live robots.txt and applies the longest-match rule for a user agent (default: * plus GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended, CCBot, PerplexityBot). Returns allowed or not, the rule that decided it, and any crawl delay. A cour

  • summary

    Headline numbers across the dataset: verdict mix, how many sites block AI crawlers (and which), protection vendors, by category and country.

Common questions

Is Rat Radar safe?

It passed 2 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.4.0) reached the registry 9 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

In the same category: Browser Use, Chrome DevTools MCP, MCP Server Browser
