A side-by-side look at the X402 Scraper API and CRW Web Scraper MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.
Verdict: choose X402 Scraper API for search & data extraction work as a local process; choose CRW Web Scraper for search & data extraction as a local process. You can also run both side by side in one mcpServers block.
BASE_RPC_URL.Rows where the two servers differ are marked.
