intercept-mcp
Give your AI the ability to read the web. One command, no API keys required.
Without it, your AI hits a URL and gets a 403, a wall, or a wall of raw HTML. With intercept, it almost always gets the content — clean markdown, ready to use.
Handles tweets, YouTube videos (with transcripts when available), arXiv papers, PDFs, Wikipedia articles, and GitHub repos. If the first strategy fails, it tries up to 14 more before giving up.
Works with any MCP client: Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, and more.
