SolveHub

solvehub-mcp

MCP server for the SolveHub CAPTCHA and anti-bot solver API. Gives Claude, Cursor, VS Code and any other MCP client eight tools to solve a challenge and get the token, cookie or OCR text back - Turnstile, Interstitial, DataDome, Akamai, PerimeterX, Imperva, AWS WAF, Alibaba CAPTCHA 2.0, Arkose FunCaptcha and image OCR through a single REST endpoint.

Zero dependencies, one npx command, Node 18 or newer.

Tools

Install

Get an API key from the SolveHub console; new accounts get a $0.10 trial credit after Telegram verification.

Claude Desktop

Edit claude_desktop_config.json and restart the app:

{

"mcpServers": { "solvehub": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "github:seencxy/solvehub-mcp"], "env": { "SOLVEHUB_API_KEY": "sh_live_xxx" } } } }

Cursor, VS Code, Cline, Windsurf

Most clients read the same JSON in mcp.json (VS Code and Cursor use the servers key):

{

"servers": { "solvehub": { "type": "stdio", "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "github:seencxy/solvehub-mcp"], "env": { "SOLVEHUB_API_KEY": "sh_live_xxx" } } } }

From a clone

git clone https://github.com/seencxy/solvehub-mcp

cd solvehub-mcp SOLVEHUB_API_KEY=sh_live_xxx node index.mjs

Docker

A public image is built from this repo on every push to main, so no local Node install is needed:

docker run -i --rm -e SOLVEHUB_API_KEY=sh_live_xxx ghcr.io/seencxy/solvehub-mcp:latest

Claude Desktop (or any stdio client) can launch the same image:

{

"mcpServers": { "solvehub": { "command": "docker", "args": ["run", "-i", "--rm", "-e", "SOLVEHUB_API_KEY=sh_live_xxx", "ghcr.io/seencxy/solvehub-mcp:latest"] } } }

What it looks like in use

Solve the Cloudflare Turnstile on https://example.com/login. The site key is 0x4AAAAAAA...

and I am allowed to test this site.

The model calls solve_captcha with type: turnstile and the challenge fields, then answers with the token and its expiry. Anything that needs a proxy (DataDome, Imperva, Akamai, PerimeterX) takes a proxy argument as well, for example http://user:pass@host:port.

Environment variables

Billing behaviour you should know

• The price is frozen when the task is created, charged only when it completes, and refunded if the task fails or is cancelled. A failed challenge costs nothing.
• The server sends an Idempotency-Key on every create, and retries 429/5xx and network errors with exponential backoff, so a retry cannot bill the same task twice.
• get_balance and get_prices are there so an agent can check the cost before spending anything.
• uncertain is not a failure: the challenge could not be judged yet and can still resolve, so wait_for_task keeps polling instead of giving up.

Supported challenge types

Exact field names per type are in the API reference.

Development

npm test

The tests run the JSON-RPC dispatcher, the tool schemas and the polling state machine against a mocked HTTP layer, so they need no API key and no network.
