## Briefing
- Zyte: Zyte has introduced Zyte MCP, a Model Context Protocol server that gives coding agents live web access, structured extraction, and Scrapy Cloud integration.

## Why it matters
This release bridges the gap between AI coding agents and production-grade web scraping infrastructure. By offering structured extraction and Scrapy Cloud operations through a standard agent interface, Zyte positions itself as a backend for agent-driven data collection, potentially reducing the need for custom scraping code in agent workflows.
