Web2MCP Turns Browsing Traffic into Agent Tools
A Chrome extension records the JSON APIs a website uses and exposes them as callable WebMCP tools for in-browser AI agents.
Field notes
The extension observes fetch and XMLHttpRequest traffic, removes duplicate requests into endpoint templates, infers JSON Schemas, and registers the results through the browser's document.modelContext API. Its demo reports 24 injected tools, while the page also describes domain-level pooling across subdomains and pages. A record-only mode is available when the browser lacks WebMCP support; the stated compatibility path is Chrome 149+ with the WebMCP feature enabled.
