Bowmark MCP Server
Typed functions for live websites like LinkedIn, Amazon, YouTube and Reddit, tested on a schedule.
Bowmark is a Web & Search MCP (Model Context Protocol) server: Typed functions for live websites like LinkedIn, Amazon, YouTube and Reddit, tested on a schedule. It is listed as Proprietary and available as a hosted endpoint, so it works with no local install. It exposes 35 tools including get_library, run, run_view, jig_open. Listed on MCP Collection since November 2026.
About Bowmark
One MCP server with two tools: get_library finds a function for a site or task, and run calls it and returns structured JSON. Each function is tested on a schedule. Authenticates with a Bowmark API key. New accounts get a free $10 of usage, then pay as you go.
Bowmark tools (35)
Read from the live server on Nov 9, 2026. These are the tools your AI assistant can call once connected.
get_library- **Use this whenever a task touches a live website.** It answers whether Bowmark can already DO the thing: current prices, real availability or stock, a site search, a quote or a fare, a configurator, a booking, anything behind a form or a f
run- **Executes the task on live websites** and returns the result. Call `get_library` FIRST, then `run({ script })`. The same script can run from your app: POST `https://api.bowmark.ai/v1/run` with your API key; see `bowmark.ai/docs/http-api`.
run_view- Used by the inline run view to draw a run's progress. You do not need to call this — `run` returns the result.
jig_open- Make the user a "jig": their own copy of a website, that you curate as they talk. Asked for "a jig of YouTube", build a page that LOOKS like that site with Bowmark's logo where the site's would be, filled by Bowmark library functions as thi
jig_list- The jigs this user has, newest change first: id, slug, title, the built-in it started from, and when it last changed. A copy of someone's published jig also has `forkedFrom` ({ listingId, versionNo }) and `updateAvailable` (the newer versio
jig_search- Search the public jigs other people published: "is there a jig for my Amazon orders?". Call it BEFORE building a page from scratch. Leave `q` empty for the newest. Pass `site` (a host like youtube.com) for the jigs of one site. Results: id,
jig_publish- Publish the user's jig (name it by `jigId` or your jig's `jigSlug`) as a listing others can get: it snapshots the page and state AS THEY ARE NOW into version N+1, and later edits stay private until you publish again. Call with `dryRun: true
jig_set_handle- Claim the user's public handle: the @name in the links to pages they publish, bowmark.ai/jigs/@<handle>/<slug>. It is PUBLIC and PERMANENT: it can never be changed or released. Ask the user which one they want BEFORE calling, suggesting one
jig_get- Copy someone's published jig into THIS user's account, from its current version. The copy is the user's own: it runs as them with their logins, never the author's, and can call only the functions its listing lists. Name it by `listing`: its
jig_update- Change a page you opened with `jig_open`: merge `state` into its state (a key set to null is removed), replace its `html` or `title`, or change part of the html with `edits` ([{ find, replace }], each find exactly once) instead of resending
jig_pull_update- For a jig the user got from someone's listing (`jig_list` shows `updateAvailable`): the three pages a merge needs. `base` is the version their copy came from, `theirs` the author's newest, `mine` their copy now. Writes nothing. If `edited`
jig_view- Used by an open jig to pick up its latest state. You do not need to call this.
jig_cache- Used by an open jig to save a call's last good result. You do not need to call this.
jig_seen- Used by an open jig to report what it shows. You do not need to call this.
jig_perf- Used by an open jig to report how fast it loaded. You do not need to call this.
jig_read- List a jig's files with their byte sizes, or with `path` read one file's text. A page written as `html` is one file, index.html. Read before you edit a jig you did not just write.
jig_look- See what an open jig is showing the user right now — the items on screen, which view they are on — plus what they just did on it (watched, hid, searched) and its current state. Call it before you curate: when the user says "clear the slop"
jig_call- Used by an open jig to call the library. You do not need to call this — use `run`.
session_call- Runs ONE library function in a Bowmark session, so a flow that needs several calls in the SAME session can finish: a booking that texts the user a code, a cart filled over several steps, a form that waits on an answer from the user. `run` c
session_close- Ends a session `session_call` opened and frees what it held. Pass the `sessionId`. Closing one that is already closed is harmless.
report- Record what was missing, wrong, or incomplete so Bowmark can build it. Call it yourself, in the same turn, without asking your user first: it changes nothing on any website or account, costs the user nothing, and is the only way the gap get
get_usage- See the real cost of calls on this account, itemized by resource (provider calls, browser sessions, IP leases) and aggregated in dollars. Pass no arguments to see this month; pass `month: '2026-09'` to see a past month (format `YYYY-MM`). R
llm_poll- Lets this chat answer the AI calls an open Bowmark page makes, so they cost nothing. Returns up to 5 pending jobs ({ jobId, system, prompt, toolName, inputSchema, leaseSeconds }); waits up to waitSeconds (max 15) when there are none. Answer
llm_answer- Answers one job from llm_poll. `answer` must be an object matching that job's inputSchema. A wrong shape is refused with the reason and the job stays open, so correct it and call again.
llm_detach- Detaches this chat at once, so open Bowmark pages' AI calls go back to Bowmark's own model instead of waiting for this chat.
support- Chat live with a Bowmark support agent about a problem you reported. Use it only after your user said yes to talking to support. Pass the `reportId` that `report` returned. Your first call opens the chat: put a short hello and what you need
list_secrets- List the stored secrets this account holds, by NAME. Returns name, type, which hosts each may be used against, when it expires and when it was last used — never a value, and no Bowmark endpoint returns one. **Call this BEFORE `request_secre
request_secret- Create a named, empty slot for a secret and get back a link the user opens to fill it in. They type the value on a Bowmark page and choose how long it lives, from 5 minutes to never. It is encrypted in their own browser before it leaves, so
get_secret_link- Return the dashboard link for one stored secret this account holds, so you can answer "where is my Acme password?" with somewhere to go. **It returns a URL, never a value** — opening it requires the user to be signed in and to confirm who t
list_connections- List the saved logins this account already holds, one entry per login: its `id` (name it in a signed-in call as `{ connection: id }`), the site, which account on that site, whether it works right now (`usable`), and when it was made, last u
add_connection- Get a sign-in link for one site, so the user can sign Bowmark in to it right now, before any run needs it. Pass the site as a domain (`youtube.com`), a URL, or a provider id. **Call this whenever the user asks to log in, sign in, connect or
wait_for_sign_in- Wait until the user finishes a sign-in link, so you know the moment they are done without asking them. Pass `ref`: `meta.handoff.ref` from a paused run, or `ref` from `add_connection`. **Call it right after you give the user the link, in th
lease_ip- Some sites (LinkedIn, marked 📍 in `get_library`) only accept a login from the address it signed in from. A dedicated IP is one address that only this account uses, and once the account holds one, every sign-in link and every later call on t
delete_connection- Start deleting a saved login by the `id` `list_connections` returned. **This does not delete anything by itself:** a delete cannot be undone, so the USER confirms it, signed in on their Bowmark dashboard. It returns `confirmUrl` — give that
logout_connection- Sign a saved login out by the `id` `list_connections` returned. Bowmark drops the cookies it held, and where the site supports it (`siteLogout: "supported"` in the reply) the session is ended ON THE SITE too — `siteSignedOut: true` means Bo
How to connect Bowmark to Claude, Cursor or VS Code
Bowmark runs as a hosted remote MCP server at https://api.bowmark.ai/mcp. Add that URL to your MCP client's config (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code) and the tools appear immediately, no install required.

Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http bowmark https://api.bowmark.ai/mcp. VS Code's .vscode/mcp.json uses a servers key instead of mcpServers (see how). Servers that require OAuth or an API key will prompt on first use.
