# Add Bright Data Web Scraping and Data Extraction Toolkit
## Overview
This PR introduces a comprehensive Bright Data toolkit that provides web
scraping, search, and structured data extraction capabilities through
the Bright Data API.
## Features Added
### Core Tools
1. **`scrape_as_markdown`** - Scrapes any webpage and returns clean
Markdown content
2. **`get_screenshot`** - Captures screenshots of webpages and saves
them locally
3. **`search_engine`** - Advanced search functionality across Google,
Bing, and Yandex with customizable parameters
4. **`web_data_feed`** - Extracts structured data from major platforms
(LinkedIn, Amazon, Instagram, Facebook, X, YouTube, Zillow, Booking.com,
etc.)
### Supporting Infrastructure
- **`BrightDataClient`**
- Error handling
- URL encoding utilities and request optimization
## Technical Details
### Search Engine Capabilities
- Multi-engine support (Google, Bing, Yandex)
- Advanced parameters: language, country, search type (images, shopping,
news)
- Device targeting (mobile, iOS, Android, iPad)
- Pagination and result count control
- Location-based searches
### Structured Data Sources
Supports 13+ data sources including:
- **E-commerce**: Amazon products and reviews
- **Professional**: LinkedIn profiles and companies, ZoomInfo
- **Social Media**: Instagram, Facebook, X (Twitter) content
- **Real Estate**: Zillow property listings
- **Travel**: Booking.com hotel listings
- **Video**: YouTube videos and metadata
## Testing & Validation
- [x] Deployed and tested on personal account
- [x] Tested via ngrok as well
- [x] Verified all tool functions work as expected
- [x] Validated against multiple data sources and search engines
- [x] Confirmed error handling and edge cases
## Security & Best Practices
- Requires proper API key and zone configuration via secrets
## Dependencies
- `requests` - HTTP client
- `arcade_tdk` - Arcade toolkit framework
- Standard library modules: `json`, `time`, `typing`, `urllib.parse`
## Notes
- All tools require `BRIGHTDATA_API_KEY` secret
- Search and scraping tools also require `BRIGHTDATA_ZONE` secret
- Follows Arcade AI toolkit patterns and conventions
- Comprehensive docstrings with examples provided
This toolkit significantly expands Arcade AI's web data capabilities,
enabling users to scrape, search, and extract structured data from
across the web through a single, unified interface.

No Oauth, uses Oauth1 and needs a Token and a Api key as secrets.

@shubcodes)
- [x] Standardize on defaulting to running servers on port 8000

now)
- Rename all occurrences of `toolkit` to `server`/`tools` and rename all
occurrences of `worker` to `server`
Versions:
* arcade-mcp\==1.0.0rc1
* arcade-mcp-server\==1.0.0rc1
* arcade-core\==2.5.0rc1
* arcade-tdk\==2.6.0rc1
* arcade-serve\==2.2.0rc1
### Summary
Adds first-class MCP support across Arcade, introduces a new MCP server
and CLI, unifies the project under the arcade-mcp name, overhauls
templates/scaffolding, and improves developer tooling, secrets
management, and examples.
### Highlights
- **MCP Server & Core**
- New MCP server with stdio and HTTP/SSE transports, session management,
resumability, and lifecycle handling.
- FastAPI-like `MCPApp` for building servers with lazy init; integrated
worker+MCP HTTP app option.
- Middleware system (logging and error handling), robust exception
hierarchy, and Pydantic-based settings.
- Async-safe managers for tools, resources, and prompts backed by
registries and locks.
- Developer-facing, transport-agnostic runtime context interfaces (logs,
tools, prompts, resources, sampling, UI, notifications).
- Conversion from Arcade ToolDefinition to MCP tool schema; OpenAI JSON
tool schema converter.
- Parser supports `@app.tool`/`@app.tool(...)` decorators.
- **CLI**
- New `mcp` command to run MCP servers with stdio or HTTP/SSE.
- New `secret` command to set/list/unset tool secrets (supports .env
input, preserves original casing for lookups).
- `new` command refactored; option to create a full toolkit package with
scaffolding.
- `chat` command removed.
- `serve.py` imports updated to `arcade_serve.fastapi.telemetry`;
version retrieval now uses `arcade-mcp`.
- `show.py` refactor to use new local catalog utilities.
- `display_tool_details` improved: adds “Default” column and handles
nested properties.
- **Configuration & Discovery**
- New `configure.py` to set up Claude Desktop, Cursor, and VS Code to
connect to local or Arcade Cloud MCP servers.
- Discovery utilities to find/install toolkits, build `ToolCatalog`s,
analyze files for tools, load kits from directories (pyproject parsing),
and build minimal toolkits.
- Better handling of provider API key resolution and evaluation suite
loading.
- **Templates & Scaffolding**
- Reorganized template structure (minimal vs full); moved
`.pre-commit-config.yaml`, `.ruff.toml`, license, Makefile, README,
tests, and tools layout to correct paths.
- Minimal template adds `.env.example` for runtime secret injection.
- Template pyproject updated for MCP servers; includes sample server
with greeting and secret-reveal tools.
- Authorization flow in templates simplified.
- **Repo-wide Renaming & Examples**
- Migrates references from `arcade-ai` to `arcade-mcp` across READMEs,
scripts, and package metadata.
- Examples updated (LangChain/LangGraph/AI SDK/TypeScript) and package
name changed to `arcade-mcp-sdk`.
- **Evals & Core Utilities**
- Evals now use OpenAI tooling format (`OpenAIToolList`, `to_openai`);
`tool_eval` takes `provider_api_key`.
- Core utilities: fixed `does_function_return_value` by dedenting before
parse; version bump to `2.5.0rc1` and dependency cleanup.
- **Tooling & CI**
- `setup-uv-env` action splits toolkit vs contrib dependency
installation.
- Pre-commit: excludes `libs/arcade-mcp-server/mkdocs.yml` and
`libs/tests/` from YAML and Ruff hooks; Ruff per-file ignores (e.g.,
C901 in `libs/**/*.py`, TRY400 in server docs paths).
- Makefile updates for uv env setup, quality checks, tests, builds, and
new `shell` target.
- Added Makefile to MCP server library to streamline dev workflow.
- **Cleanup**
- Removed `claude.json` config.
- Simplified stdio entrypoint; removed unused imports (`arcade_gmail`,
`arcade_search`).
### Breaking Changes
- **CLI**: `chat` command removed; use `mcp`, `secret`, and updated
`new`.
- **Naming**: All users should update references from `arcade-ai` to
`arcade-mcp`.
- **Templates**: File paths moved; downstream scripts referencing old
template locations may need updates.
### Getting Started
- Run an MCP server:
- `arcade mcp --stdio --toolkits your_toolkit`
- `arcade mcp --http --toolkits your_toolkit`
- Manage secrets:
- `arcade secret set your_toolkit KEY=value`
- `arcade secret list your_toolkit`
- `arcade secret unset your_toolkit KEY`
- Configure clients:
- `arcade configure` to set up Claude Desktop, Cursor, and VS Code for
local/Arcade Cloud MCP.

# [PROD-215](https://app.clickup.com/t/9014390315/PROD-215) 🎫
## Changes
- Removed some try catch blocks from Zendesk tools so the default Httpx
error adaptor can deal with them.

As of today, Arcade's toolkits are moving to closed-source.
Toolkit source code remains available upon request for our paying
customers. The history of this repository contains the toolkits as of
their most recent publication under their previous license terms.
