wigolo gives an AI agent one surface for everything web-related: search, fetch, crawl, extract, cache, find-similar, research, and autonomous gather loops. It runs wherever your agent runs — as an MCP server next to your coding agent, as a REST/MCP endpoint on the box where your self-hosted agents live, or embedded through an SDK inside your own app. The core tools need no API keys, nothing it touches leaves ~/.wigolo/, and no bill grows with how much your agent thinks.







 Quickstart

bash
npx wigolo init                               set up the local engine — any system
npx wigolo init --agents=claude-code,cursor   …or set up + wire your day-to-day agents in one command


Requires Node ≥ 20 and ~1.5 GB of free disk on macOS, Linux, or Windows. Bare init sets up the local engine: it downloads the browser engine and on-device models, runs a health check, and reports each component. Adding --agents wires the named agents in the same run, so a coding agent you use daily is ready in one command.

- Supported agents — --agents takes any of claude-code · cursor · codex · gemini-cli · opencode · vscode · windsurf · zed · antigravity (comma-separated); wigolo writes the MCP config and, where supported, instructions for each.
- Any other setup — any MCP client, agent framework, or self-hosted agent registers npx -y wigolo in its own MCP config. The installation guide has the exact config block for every client, plus Docker, Homebrew, and single-file-binary channels.
- More on the way — the supported list keeps growing, and a PR to add your agent is welcome; see CONTRIBUTING.md.
- Interactive setup — --interactive is a plain-text flow; --wizard is the full terminal TUI.
- Defer downloads — --no-warmup waits until first use. A failed component download never fails setup; init reports what's not ready with the exact fix and still completes.

init is unattended by default, so it's safe in scripts and CI, and any setup problem surfaces right here in the per-component report, before your agent's first call. Search, fetch, crawl, extract, cache, and find-similar work with no API key. Check it's healthy anytime:

bash
npx wigolo doctor


To remove everything cleanly, run npx wigolo config --uninstall --yes. You can also paste the installati
