About
mcp-crew-risk is an automated crawler compliance risk assessment framework that evaluates websites for crawler-friendliness across legal, ethical, and technical dimensions. It analyzes target webpages to help developers avoid legal disputes, ethical concerns, and technical obstacles when planning web scraping strategies. Key features of mcp-crew-risk: - Legal risk detection including Terms of Service restrictions, copyright declarations, and sensitive personal data (emails, phone numbers, ID numbers) - Social and ethical compliance checks for robots.txt rules, anti-crawling technologies (Cloudflare JS Challenge), and privacy protection measures - Technical risk assessment covering redirects, CAPTCHAs, JavaScript rendering obstacles, and API path exposure - Multi-level risk ratings (allowed, partial, blocked) with specific recommendations for crawler strategy planning

mcp-crew-risk
A Crawler Risk Assessor based on the Model Context Protocol (MCP). This server provides a simple API interface that allows users to perform a comprehensive crawler compliance risk assessment for a specified webpage.
Crawler Compliance Risk Assessment Framework Description
This framework aims to provide crawler developers and operators with a comprehensive automated compliance detection toolset to evaluate the crawler-friendliness and potential risks of target websites. It covers three major dimensions: legal, social ethics, and technical aspects. Through multi-level risk warnings and specific recommendations, it helps plan crawler strategies reasonably to avoid legal disputes and negative social impacts while improving technical stability and efficiency.

Framework Structure
1. Legal Risk
#### Detection Content
#### Risk Significance Violating terms may lead to breach of contract, infringement, or criminal liability; scraping sensitive data may violate privacy regulations such as GDPR, CCPA, etc.
#### Detection Examples

2. Social/Ethical Risk
#### Detection Content
#### Risk Significance Excessive crawling may harm user experience and trust; collecting private data has ethical risks and social responsibility implications.

Recommendations
| Risk Dimension | Summary Recommendations | | -------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Legal Risk | Carefully read and comply with the target site's Terms of Service; avoid scraping sensitive or personal data; consult legal counsel if necessary. | | Social/Ethical Risk | Control crawl frequency; avoid impacting server performance and user experience; be transparent about data sources and usage. | | Technical Risk | Use appropriate crawler frameworks and strategies; support dynamic rendering and anti-crawling bypass; handle exceptions and monitor access health in real-time. |

Implementation Process
1. Pre-crawl Assessment Run compliance assessment on the target site to confirm risk levels and restrictions.
2. Compliance Strategy Formulation Adjust crawler access frequency and content scope according to assessment results to avoid breaches or violations.
3. Crawler Execution and Monitoring Continuously monitor technical exceptions and risk changes during crawling; regularly reassess.
4. Data Processing and Protection Ensure crawled data complies with privacy protection requirements and perform necessary anonymization.
