slymes-20 · reddit · 2026-10-23
CrawlForge MCP shipped 24 releases between Sept 29 and Oct 22 (v6.12.1→v6.24.0), driven by two live sweeps of all 31 tools against real sites.
- Billing: failed calls cost 0 credits; repeat reads of the same page within 10 minutes cost 1 credit (maxAge: 0 forces fresh fetch)
- Citable agents: every cited URL must be sourced; unverifiable ones land in provenance.unverifiedurls
- Scraping: extractembeddedstate now parses Nuxt 3, SvelteKit, YouTube, Remix, Inertia, Shopify; snapshots wait for page settle, see into shadow roots/iframes, and can dismiss cookie banners
- Security: all browser traffic goes through an SSRF guard proxy; search runs on Brave Search API
No new tools, no price changes.
