kitewright-mcp

kitewright-mcp

Run the kitewright browser-automation MCP server with npx — no build step, no cargo. A tiny launcher that resolves the prebuilt kite binary for your platform and starts it over stdio.

Use it

Claude Code

claude mcp add kitewright -- npx -y kitewright-mcp

Cursor / any MCP client (mcp.json)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kitewright": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "kitewright-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

That's it — npx kitewright-mcp with no args starts a stdio MCP server. Pass flags through for other modes (e.g. npx kitewright-mcp --http for the HTTP transport).

How it works

The prebuilt kite binary ships as an optional per-platform dependency (@kitewright/mcp-darwin-arm64, -darwin-x64, -linux-x64-gnu, -win32-x64-msvc) — npm installs only the one matching your OS/arch, the same pattern esbuild and napi use. The launcher require.resolves it and execs it.

• Override the binary with KITE_BINARY=/path/to/kite (local dev / custom build).
• If no prebuilt package covers your platform, install from source: cargo install --git https://github.com/kitewright/kitewright kitewright.

Config

All kitewright env vars apply (KITE_HEADLESS, KITE_IDLE_TIMEOUT_SECS, KITE_ALLOW_SECRET_FILES, …) — see the main README.
