Claude + Wayfern

Claude reads the page you name, as it is today.

  • Custom connector with OAuth
  • Free plan: one custom connector
  • Web, desktop and mobile

Claude has web search, but many sites block automated visits. They return a challenge page or a page with no content, and Claude has less to work from.

Add Wayfern as a custom connector, and Claude calls scrape_page, search_web and capture_screenshot like its other tools. Each call runs in an anti-detect browser and reports the credits it cost.

A Claude chat. The user turns on the Wayfern connector and asks for a price table. Claude calls Wayfern to scrape three pricing pages, each call shows its credits, and a table of three plans comes back.

Setup

Add a custom connector.

Do this one time on claude.ai or in Claude Desktop. The connector then also works in the mobile apps, because Claude connects from Anthropic's cloud.

  1. 1

    Open Connectors

    Go to Customize, Connectors and click Add custom connector.

  2. 2

    Enter the server

    Name it Wayfern. Paste the server URL.

    URL

    https://api.wayfern.com/mcp
  3. 3

    Pick the sign-in

    Set Authentication to Sign in now. For the OAuth client, Register automatically works with Wayfern.

  4. 4

    Connect

    Click Add, then Connect. Claude opens wayfern.com. Sign in and click Allow.

  5. 5

    Turn it on in a chat

    Click the + button in a chat, open Connectors and turn on Wayfern. Then ask.

    prompt

    Read the pricing pages of Notion, Coda and Slite. Make a table of the price per seat for each plan.

Other ways to connect

  • With a token header

    Organizations with request headers (a beta) can choose No sign-in and send a wf_ token with the mcp scope.

    prompt

    Authorization: Bearer wf_...

Route

A connector is the one route Claude needs.

Claude connects from Anthropic's cloud, so it needs a public server. Wayfern's server is public and signs in with OAuth, and every Claude plan can add a custom connector.

Remote MCP OAuth sign-in
Best fit
OAuth sign-in on wayfern.com, on web, desktop and mobile.
MCP + token Authorization header
In part
Only for organizations with request headers, a beta.
Agent skill SKILL.md
Not tested
Claude runs skills in its own code sandbox. A token there and network access to api.wayfern.com are not tested.

Tools

What Claude can call

The same tools on every route, at the REST API rates. Every result reports credits_charged.

All tool inputs
  • scrape_page Fetch one page through an anti-detect browser and return clean markdown, HTML, links and metadata. The screenshot, pdf and json formats add +4 credits (once); summary adds +2. 1 credit / page
  • extract_data Extract structured data from one or more pages with a prompt and an optional JSON Schema. Re-running over pages already fetched is free. 1 credit / uncached source page
  • map_site List a site's URLs from its sitemaps and page links. 2 credits / 10 URLs
  • capture_screenshot Capture a clean image of a page: cookie banners and ads removed, lazy images loaded, tall pages captured end to end. Returns a short-lived download URL and an artifact key, not image bytes. Slices of a full page cost nothing extra; a fail_if_contains match is not charged. 5 credits / capture
  • brand_profile Identity, colours, logos, social links and company metadata for a domain. 10 credits / profile
  • site_styleguide Colours, typography, spacing, radii, shadows and the design tokens a site declares. 10 credits / site
  • site_fonts Font families, where each is served from, available weights, file formats and where they are used. 5 credits / site
  • crawl_site Start a bounded multi-page crawl. Returns a job id immediately and charges nothing up front; pages are billed as the crawl runs. 1 credit / successful page
  • crawl_status Poll a crawl started with crawl_site and read a page of its results. The pages were billed as they were crawled. Free
  • search_web Search Google, Bing, and DuckDuckGo. Returns ranked results, ads, provider failures, pagination, and related queries. 2 credits / provider page
  • list_search_engines List live provider ids and labels. Free
