MCP server
Give Claude real-time web access
One MCP server, and Claude can read any webpage — in the app, in the terminal, or in your editor.
Claude speaks the Model Context Protocol natively, so webclaw plugs straight in and Claude gets 12 web tools immediately: scrape, search, crawl, map, batch, extract, summarize, diff, brand, research, list_extractors, and vertical_scrape. The same server backs the desktop app, Claude Code and every editor extension — configure it once. No middleware, no custom code.
You are set up. Now try it.

Run it inside Claude Code and webclaw should be listed with 12 tools. In the desktop app, restart it and the tools appear in the tool menu.
