What it does
wigolo gives AI agents one set of web tools: search, fetch pages, crawl sites, pull out information and run research. It plugs into tools like Claude Code, Cursor and Codex through MCP, a standard way to give AI new tools.
Its makers say the core tools need no API keys, keep everything on your computer, and cost nothing per search. Setup downloads a browser engine and on-device models.
The README describes it as a public beta.
