I had a question though – I noticed you used the API https://api.brightdata.com instead of @brightdata/mcp How does that work? Does @brightdata/mcp use the API under the hood, or are they two separate things? In the documentation, the only method I saw was using @brightdata/mcp.
So actually, I just took Bright Data’s FastMCP server code and plugged it into my Express backend directly. Basically doing the same thing as @brightdata/mcp, just manually. I'm still using api.brightdata.com under the hood, but with a bit more control on how things run.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.

Yes, the @brightdata/mcp use the same api.
