NodeMaven residential proxies: geo-targeted proxy URLs, sticky sessions, checks and usage
Install
Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).
nodemaven-mcpclaude mcp add nodemaven -e 'NODEMAVEN_APIKEY=<your nodemaven_apikey>' -e 'NODEMAVEN_MCP_ALLOW_WRITE=<NODEMAVEN_MCP_ALLOW_WRITE>' -e 'NODEMAVEN_MCP_REVEAL_PASSWORD=<NODEMAVEN_MCP_REVEAL_PASSWORD>' -- uvx nodemaven-mcp==0.2.0

nodemaven-mcp
An MCP server for NodeMaven residential proxies. It lets an AI assistant build proxy strings with geo-targeting and sticky sessions, check that a proxy connects and where it exits, look up locations, and read traffic usage.
It is read-only: nothing in your account is created, changed or deleted.
Tools
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
proxy_url | Proxy string for a country, region, city or ISP, with an optional sticky session and its lifetime. HTTP or SOCKS5. |
check_proxy | Opens one connection through the proxy and returns the status, the exit IP and the time it took. |
list_locations | Countries, regions, cities and ISPs available for targeting, with the codes proxy_url takes. |
account_status | Remaining traffic, subscription status, whether traffic is frozen. |
traffic_stats | Traffic used over time. |
top_domains | Domains reached through the proxy, with traffic per domain. |
list_sub_users | Sub-users with their usage and limits. |
Setup
You need an API key from the NodeMaven dashboard. The proxy username and password are read from the account through that key, so nothing else is required.
Claude Desktop (claude_desktop_config.json), Cursor and other MCP clients:
{
"mcpServers": {
"nodemaven": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["nodemaven-mcp"],
"env": { "NODEMAVEN_APIKEY": "your-api-key" }
}
}
}
Without uv: pip install nodemaven-mcp and use "command": "nodemaven-mcp".
| Variable | |
|---|---|
NODEMAVEN_APIKEY | Required. |
NODEMAVEN_LOGIN, NODEMAVEN_PASSWORD | Optional. Proxy credentials to use instead of the account's own, e.g. a sub-user. |
NODEMAVEN_MCP_REVEAL_PASSWORD | 1 puts the real password into proxy_url output. Off by default. |
Credentials
Tool results go into the model's context and usually into the chat history, so the server keeps secrets out of them:
proxy_urlreturns the password as<PROXY_PASSWORD>unlessNODEMAVEN_MCP_REVEAL_PASSWORD=1is set.- API responses are reduced to a fixed list of fields; proxy passwords and the account email are never returned.

Frequently asked questions
What is NodeMaven?
NodeMaven residential proxies: geo-targeted proxy URLs, sticky sessions, checks and usage
How do I install NodeMaven?
It runs on your machine. In Claude Code: claude mcp add nodemaven -e 'NODEMAVEN_APIKEY=<your nodemaven_apikey>' -e 'NODEMAVEN_MCP_ALLOW_WRITE=<NODEMAVEN_MCP_ALLOW_WRITE>' -e 'NODEMAVEN_MCP_REVEAL_PASSWORD=<NODEMAVEN_MCP_REVEAL_PASSWORD>' -- uvx nodemaven-mcp==0.2.0. For other clients, paste the JSON configuration from this page into their MCP settings.
Does NodeMaven need an API key?
Yes. It expects NODEMAVEN_APIKEY, which you set in its configuration.
Is NodeMaven open source?
Yes. Its code is on GitHub under the MIT license.
Who maintains NodeMaven?
It is published by nodemaven. AI.tn lists it but does not maintain or endorse it.
From the official MCP Registry. Listing is not an endorsement: review a server's code and permissions before giving it access to your data.
