Web Embedding MCP Server

webEmbedding is a source-first website cloning engine for AI coding agents: it captures live pages with Playwright, replays network evidence from HAR artifacts, rebuilds only when direct reuse is blocked, and self-verifies the result.

People connecting browser automation tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.

01 · Install Web Embedding

before you install - you'll need

Set WEB_EMBEDDING_TELEMETRY, WEB_EMBEDDING_NO_TELEMETRY, WEB_EMBEDDING_TELEMETRY_PROMPT, WEB_EMBEDDING_TELEMETRY_ENDPOINT, WEB_EMBEDDING_TELEMETRY_LOG before connecting.

Claude Code

claude mcp add jongko54-webembedding --transport http https://webembedding-mcp.vercel.app/mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "jongko54-webembedding": {
      "url": "https://webembedding-mcp.vercel.app/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

06 · Web Embedding FAQ

What is Web Embedding?

Is Web Embedding still maintained?

Yes - as of 2026-08-25, its last commit was 2026-06-30. We re-verify nightly.

How do I install Web Embedding?

Run `npx -y web-embedding`. The README documents 5 environment variables (WEB_EMBEDDING_TELEMETRY, WEB_EMBEDDING_NO_TELEMETRY, WEB_EMBEDDING_TELEMETRY_PROMPT…) to set first. Set WEB_EMBEDDING_TELEMETRY, WEB_EMBEDDING_NO_TELEMETRY, WEB_EMBEDDING_TELEMETRY_PROMPT, WEB_EMBEDDING_TELEMETRY_ENDPOINT, WEB_EMBEDDING_TELEMETRY_LOG before connecting. You can also paste the ready-made client config above.

Does Web Embedding run locally?

Yes - it's a stdio server: it runs on your machine (via npx) with your user's permissions. Your data stays local unless the server itself calls external APIs.
