Skills
| Skill | Description |
|-------|-------------|
| scraperapi-agent-onboarding | Entry point for agents and developers new to ScraperAPI. Read first when integrating ScraperAPI into an agent or app, picking the right product, or obtaining an API key. |
| scraperapi-mcp | Teaches Claude how to optimally use the ScraperAPI MCP tools — tool selection, parameter tuning, credit minimization, large-output handling. Includes ready-to-use recipes. |
| scraperapi-async | Async Jobs API: submit scraping jobs in the background, retrieve via polling or webhook, including batch jobs up to 50,000 URLs. |
| scraperapi-crawler | Crawler product: crawl an entire site or section by following links automatically when target URLs aren't known up front. |
| scraperapi-datapipeline | DataPipeline: managed, scheduled scraping projects that run automatically and deliver results via webhook or dashboard download. |
| scraperapi-python-sdk | Best-practices reference for the Python SDK (scraperapi-sdk): client setup, the standard → render → premium → ultra_premium escalation ladder, async batches, structured data, error handling. |
| scraperapi-nodejs-sdk | Best-practices reference for the Node.js / TypeScript SDK (scraperapi-sdk): CommonJS and ESM, async/await, POST/PUT, account info, error handling. |
| scraperapi-ruby-sdk | Best-practices reference for the Ruby SDK (scraperapi gem): gem setup, all parameters, escalation ladder, sessions, status-code error handling. |
| scraperapi-php-sdk | Best-practices reference for the PHP SDK (scraperapi/sdk Composer package): setup, all parameters, POST requests, error handling. |
| scraperapi-java-sdk | Best-practices reference for the Java SDK (com.scraperapi:sdk): fluent builder API, escalation ladder, async jobs, structured data. |
| scraperapi-cli | Use the official sapi command-line tool from shells, pipelines, cron, and CI. Covers install, auth, every command, JSON / piping behaviour, and common recipes. |
| scraperapi-n8n | Generate n8n workflows that use the official ScraperAPI community node (n8n-nodes-scraperapi-official). Produces importable workflow JSON or step-by-step build guides. |
| scraperapi-scraper-builder | Build a runnable scraper end-to-end: picks structured endpoint vs raw HTML, JS rendering, proxy tier, sync vs async, then generates a complete Python or Node.js script with retries, pagination, and credit estimation. |
| scraperapi-lead-enrichment | Enrich a contact or company from any seed (name, domain, LinkedIn URL, email) and produce a structured contact card with person and company fields. |
| scraperapi-research-agent | Autonomous research agent: takes a question, uses ScraperAPI to search and scrape relevant pages, uploads content as file artifacts to the Anthropic Files API, then feeds everything to Claude for a cited markdown report. |
| scraperapi-market-research | Market research from live web data: consumer sentiment, demand and trend signals, price and category structure, and competitive landscape — for product, pricing, positioning, or investment decisions. |
| scraperapi-seo-audit | Comprehensive SEO audit using live SERPs and on-page scraping: keyword rankings, titles/meta/headings/schema, content gaps, indexation, and prioritized recommendations. Runs out of the box via the bundled MCP tools. |
| scraperapi-serp-intelligence | SERP landscape analysis for SEO strategy: AI Overview presence and attribution, SERP feature composition, query intent, competitor visibility, and where rankings translate to traffic. |
| scraperapi-price-monitoring | Track Amazon, Walmart, and Google Shopping prices from ASINs, URLs, or product queries. Detects increases, decreases, restocks, and out-of-stock transitions against an optional baseline. |

# Onboarding
"I'm building an agent that needs web data — how do I use ScraperAPI?"
# Product primitives
"Submit these 5,000 URLs as a ScraperAPI async batch and call me back at https://my-app/cb"
"Crawl example.com and list every product URL"
"Set up a DataPipeline project that scrapes these ASINs every morning"
# CLI
"Use sapi to scrape https://news.ycombinator.com and pipe titles into a CSV"
"Write a cron line that runs sapi structured amazon product on this ASIN daily"
# SDKs
"Write a Python script that scrapes this URL with premium proxies and retries on 429"
"Show me the Node.js SDK call to autoparse Amazon product pages"
# Workflows
"Build me a scraper for this e-commerce site that extracts title, price, and stock"
"Enrich this contact: jane@example.com — find her LinkedIn, company, and role"
"Research the top Python web scraping frameworks and give me a cited report"
"Investigate how competitors are pricing their SaaS plans — scrape real pages and summarise"
Each skill's SKILL.md documents its full set of trigger phrases and behaviour.
