WebMCP is a browser API that lets websites expose tools to AI agents. Chrome just shipped an early preview in Canary (behind a flag).

I built webmcp-kit because the raw API is a bit tedious, you write JSON Schema by hand and get untyped inputs. This wraps it with Zod so you define schemas once and get TypeScript inference + validation.

It also includes a dev panel to test tools without needing a real AI agent, works in any browser by falling back to a mock.

Try it out and let me know!

I’m nervous, announcing this, as it isn’t ready to ship out to the general public yet, and I haven’t had any feedback at all from anyone, I’m out on my own here. I think this concept itself is kind of dismissed outright a lot too, and I understand why, I wouldn’t believe me either actually.

But, I do believe this is very much worth your time to check out, I am not aware of anything else very much like it.

I won’t repeat what is already written on the github README here, but some info:

I am a successful semi-retired solo game developer, I have been making my own bespoke game engines since 2003 for all of my games across a number of platforms and languages. Last year, I ripped out the engine of my latest game, and stripped it back with the goal to start a new project, as I have done a number of times before.

But this time, I decided to ditch lua and make my own programming language, and that was sort of the tipping point. Once I thought about multiplayer, and realized I wanted a general purpose network that didn't exist, I was on my way down this extremely deep rabbit hole.

I want to just make a few things clear, then I hope that some of you might have some questions or feedback.

- I'm disillusioned by capitalism and the AI transition, and that influences my motives

- I have made all of this open source and free not because I am overly altruistic, but because it is the only way something like this can succeed

- I don’t think it can or should replace the internet, I see it as a cycleway alternative to the internet highway, they have different purposes

- I have no real desire to run an open source project or lead anyone, I mostly just want software that works for me and my family and friends. I love coding and I like to make nice things and share them.

- There is still a lot to do, I'm very excited about messaging and the whole client-side data thing in particular, but for now there are only a few weeks of work to go until a bare bones browser will be functional enough to release and ship.

You can have a play and build it all yourself though right now, host sites, and build apps.
