Review first — review before installing

Open the source and read safety notes before installing.

Safety notes

  • boolsai_scan fetches live websites and may trigger WAF or rate limits on target hosts.
  • Scanning third-party sites without permission may violate terms of service or security policies.
  • Detected stack data is heuristic and may include false positives or miss obfuscated technologies.
  • Do not use scan output as the sole input for security assessments or compliance audits.

Privacy notes

  • URLs and path lists you submit are sent to Boolsai.ai for analysis and may be logged for abuse prevention.
  • Local path scans depend on your MCP client; path names may reveal internal project structure if shared in chat.
  • Scan results can expose framework versions useful to attackers; handle reports as sensitive in competitive contexts.

Prerequisites

  • Claude Pro, Team, or Enterprise with Connectors support, or Claude Code with HTTP MCP transport.
  • Public URLs to scan or local project paths exposed through your MCP client's file access model.
  • Permission to probe target websites; avoid scanning systems you do not own without authorization.
  • Internet access so BoolsAI can fetch remote pages for stack detection.

About this resource

Overview

BoolsAI Scan provides a hosted Model Context Protocol server for detecting technologies used on websites and in project paths. No authentication is required. Tools include boolsai_scan for URL-based detection and boolsai_scan_paths for path-oriented analysis.

Source and documentation are in Boolsai-ai/mcp. The endpoint is https://boolsai.ai/mcp.

Features

  • boolsai_scan detects CMS, frameworks, analytics, and hosting signals from URLs.
  • boolsai_scan_paths inspects technology markers from supplied path lists.
  • No API key or OAuth required for basic scanning.
  • Hosted remote HTTP transport at boolsai.ai/mcp.
  • Fast setup for competitive research and due diligence workflows.

Use Cases

  • Identify the CMS and JS framework on a prospect’s marketing site.
  • Compare tech stacks across competitor landing pages.
  • Pre-qualify integration partners by detecting API gateways and clouds.
  • Document stack assumptions before a migration proposal.
  • Batch-scan a list of URLs during market mapping.

Installation

Claude (Connectors)

  1. Add a custom connector under Settings → Connectors.
  2. Enter the MCP URL: https://boolsai.ai/mcp.
  3. Enable the connector; no API key is needed.
  4. Invoke scan tools from chat.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http boolsai https://boolsai.ai/mcp
claude mcp list

Other MCP clients

Add a remote HTTP connector pointing at https://boolsai.ai/mcp.

Configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "boolsai": {
      "url": "https://boolsai.ai/mcp",
      "type": "http"
    }
  }
}

No headers or environment variables are required.

Examples

Scan a website

Run boolsai_scan on https://example.com and list detected frameworks and analytics tools.

Compare competitors

Scan https://competitor-a.com and https://competitor-b.com and compare their tech stacks.

Path-based scan

Use boolsai_scan_paths on our repo’s package.json and config files to summarise the stack.

Security

  • Scan only sites you are authorised to probe.
  • Treat version fingerprints as sensitive when disclosing externally.
  • Confirm findings manually before security or compliance decisions.

Troubleshooting

Scan blocked or empty

The target may block bots or require JavaScript rendering; try the canonical HTTPS URL without redirects.

False positives

Heuristic detection can mislabel CDNs or tag managers; corroborate with manual inspection.

Rate limits

Space out bulk scans; excessive requests to the same domain may be throttled by BoolsAI or the target.

Path scan errors

Ensure paths exist and your client can read them; remote MCP path scans depend on local file access configuration.
