What is the Wigolo MCP Server?

Local-first web intelligence MCP server for AI coding agents

What it actually does

Local-first web intelligence for AI agents — no keys, no cloud, no metered bill.

  • Built for agents. — One MCP call fans out many queries across many engines in parallel, which a serial host tool-loop can't replicate. Every result carries transparent per-result scoring, and output is budget-aware
  • Honest output. — Stale cache, failed fetches, degraded backends, and truncation are surfaced in the result. When a bot-protected page can't be read, you get a labeled blocked_by_challenge failure, not a challenge shell returned as content
  • $0 per query, free to re-query. — Default search talks to public engines through direct adapters; the reranker and embeddings run on-device. Every response is cached, so asking again is instant and costs nothing
  • Private by default. — Cache, embeddings, models, and config live under ~/.wigolo/. Nothing reaches a third party unless you explicitly opt into an LLM for synthesis
