There is no first-party SDK on any package registry, because there is no Screaming Frog API to wrap — automation is done through the SEO Spider CLI and, since v24, the built-in MCP server. The entries below record what is actually distributed: versioned direct downloads from download.screamingfrog.co.uk, the two unpinned MCP extension bundles, community Homebrew casks, and a small set of first-party npm packages that are internal front-end components for screamingfrog.co.uk rather than API clients. sdk_count: 0 sdk_note: >- No official API client library exists in any registry, and none should — the products are desktop binaries. This artifact deliberately does NOT carry an `SDKs` pointer in apis.yml; recording zero SDKs is the honest measurement, not a gap to be papered over. packages: - name: Screaming Frog SEO Spider language: java registry: direct kind: desktop-application official: true url: https://www.screamingfrog.co.uk/seo-spider/ version: '24.3' published: '2026-06-29' published_source: https://www.screamingfrog.co.uk/seo-spider/release-history/ artifacts: - {platform: windows, url: 'https://download.screamingfrog.co.uk/products/seo-spider/ScreamingFrogSEOSpider-24.3.exe', http_status: 200} - {platform: macos-arm64, url: 'https://download.screamingfrog.co.uk/products/seo-spider/ScreamingFrogSEOSpider-24.3-aarch64.dmg'} - {platform: macos-x86_64, url: 'https://download.screamingfrog.co.uk/products/seo-spider/ScreamingFrogSEOSpider-24.3-x86_64.dmg'} - {platform: ubuntu-amd64, url: 'https://download.screamingfrog.co.uk/products/seo-spider/screamingfrogseospider_24.3_amd64.deb', http_status: 200} - {platform: ubuntu-arm64, url: 'https://download.screamingfrog.co.uk/products/seo-spider/screamingfrogseospider_24.3_arm64.deb'} - {platform: fedora-x86_64, url: 'https://download.screamingfrog.co.uk/products/seo-spider/screamingfrogseospider-24.3-1.x86_64.rpm'} - {platform: fedora-aarch64, url: 'https://download.screamingfrog.co.uk/products/seo-spider/screamingfrogseospider-24.3-1.aarch64.rpm'} note: >- Download URLs are version-pinned, so currency is readable directly from the URL.
