MCP Tool Reference
Every MCP tool a connected AI agent can use in Ultimate Web Scraper — querying tables, cleanup, exports, automations, site discovery, and Shopify extraction.
A connected AI agent works through a set of named tools — you ask in plain language, the agent picks the right one, and most clients show each call as it happens. Here's every tool, grouped by the access level that unlocks it; a read-only connection only gets the first group.
Reading & analysis — every connection
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
get_workspace_info | Your plan, credit balance, and the connection's access level |
list_tables | Lists your result tables, grouped by the automation that produced them |
get_table | One table's columns, row count, and a small sample of rows |
query_table | Filters, aggregates, groups, and sorts a table of any size — the full table never enters the conversation |
export_table | Generates a download link in CSV, JSON, or Excel. Tables produced by a Shopify extraction can also export as a re-import-ready Shopify product CSV |
list_automations | Your automations, their schedules, and their status |
list_runs | The run history of an automation |
get_run | A run's live progress and row count so far, plus links to watch it or open the results table |
search_docs | Searches this documentation to answer product questions |
get_docs_page | Reads a single docs page in full |
list_docs | The documentation's table of contents |
Cleaning & operating — full access
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
run_automation | Starts an automation run |
stop_run | Stops a run in progress |
export_table_to_google_sheets | Sends a whole table to a new spreadsheet in your Google Drive (uses the Google Sheets integration) |
update_column | Renames a column or changes its type |
delete_columns | Deletes columns you don't need |
merge_columns | Merges 2–5 columns into one (street + city + zip → Address) |
delete_rows | Permanently deletes the rows matching a filter — it reports the match count first and deletes only after you confirm |
deduplicate_rows | Removes duplicate rows, keeping the first occurrence — with the same count-first confirmation |
Extracting — full access
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
analyze_website | Free first look at any site you want scraped: identifies the platform, checks for a sitemap, and returns the extraction strategies that apply |
create_extraction | Starts a zero-configuration extraction — product pages, emails, social links, phone numbers, or Google Maps — from pasted URLs or a table column. Returns a credit estimate first and runs only after you confirm |
discover_sitemap | Maps a site's URLs into a grouped overview — the starting point for "scrape this whole site" or "just the winter collection" |
select_sitemap_urls | Filters a discovery — by group, search term, or exclusions — into a URL table that feeds straight into create_extraction |
list_shopify_collections | Lists or searches a Shopify store's collections by name |
extract_shopify_store | Extracts a Shopify store's catalogue — the whole store or chosen collections — as one clean row per product variant. Estimates credits and asks before running |
Ready-made prompts
The connection also includes starter prompts — one-click workflows like "discover and scrape a site", "scrape a Shopify store", or "clean up a table" — that appear in Claude's connector menu and as slash commands in Claude Code. Only ones your access level can run are shown.
Credit & safety behavior
- Reading, querying, cleaning, and exporting consume no credits. Site discovery uses a small flat credit charge, only when it actually finds URLs.
- Anything that spends credits or deletes data happens in two steps: the agent shows you a cost estimate or a match count first, and nothing runs until you confirm.
- Oversized results are never dumped into the chat — the agent is asked to narrow its query instead.

What AI Agents Can Do
Connected AI agents can query scraped tables of any size, clean columns, export data, operate automations, and answer product questions from the docs.
AI-Started Extractions
Ask Claude or any MCP agent to extract product data, emails, social links, phone numbers, or Google Maps places — with credit estimates before anything runs.
