MCP (Claude, Cursor, VS Code)

Give an AI assistant our actors as tools through Apify’s MCP server. The example uses YouTube Transcript & Subtitles Scraper; swap in any actor ID below.

Apify’s MCP server exposes any Store actor as a tool. List the actors you want in tools:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apify": {
      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=arcadium/youtube-transcripts",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer <APIFY_TOKEN>"
      }
    }
  }
}

See the MCP page for all actors at once and the local (stdio) setup.
