Screaming Frog SEO Spider v25 ships JSON config and MCP tooling for AI-driven crawls
5le · x · 2026-11-03
Screaming Frog SEO Spider v25.0 doubles down on AI/MCP workflows:
- JSON config: config files are now JSON, human- and machine-readable; combined with improved MCP integration, your AI assistant can configure crawls from plain-English requests — enabling JS rendering, building segments, writing custom JS snippets, or deriving tricky XPaths
- MCP debugging tooling: when a crawl misbehaves, the AI assistant gets diagnostics and proposes fixes
- Custom Dashboard: build your own dashboards with charts, counters and tables
- Plus configurable issues, link-path exclusions, and more; legacy config format still supported
