Tap MCP Server

The action layer your agent drives in your own logged-in browser - for the exception-heavy, compliance-critical last 20% that clean APIs can't reach. Compiled once, replayed forever at zero LLM tokens.

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

01 · Install Tap

Claude Code

claude mcp add leonting1010-tap --transport http https://mcp.taprun.dev/mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "leonting1010-tap": {
      "url": "https://mcp.taprun.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}

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

Using another client? Same JSON, different key

Security posture

What to check before giving this server access to your agent - from the registry, GitHub, and our own probes. We don't score safety; we show what's verifiable.

runs as local process (stdio) - runs on your machine with your user's permissions · remote - your agent's requests go to mcp.taprun.dev

endpoint auth accepted our unauthenticated MCP initialize - no credentials needed to connect

license MIT - declared in the repository

npm package @taprun/cli - the @taprun scope differs from the repo owner (leonting1010); confirm it's the project's official package

registry namespace io.github.LeonTing1010 is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner

Prose above is summarized from the project's README and registry record - no invented capabilities.
