πWeb Agent Protocol (WAP) - Record and replay user interactions in the browser with MCP support
Web Agent Protocol MCP server exists for a simple reason β assistants are far more useful when they can act on Web Agent Protocol directly instead of describing what you should do. πWeb Agent Protocol (WAP) - Record and replay user interactions in the browser with MCP support.
The Web Agent Protocol (WAP) is a standardized framework designed to enable seamless interaction between users, web agents, and browsers by recording and replaying browser actions. It separates the concerns of action recording and execution, allowing for efficient automation and reusability. The Python SDK for WAP implements the full specification, making it easy to:
Once Web Agent Protocol is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:
Mode β CommandYou will need 3 environment variables: PYTHONPATH, OPENAI_API_KEY, DEEPSEEK_API_KEY. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.
Setup follows the usual MCP pattern β install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client.
Among the browser automation options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" β permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. Web Agent Protocol's toolset β Mode β is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by OTA-Tech-AI; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
