Security scores are indicators to help you make informed decisions, not guarantees. Always review permissions before connecting any MCP server.

Permissions Found in Source Code

Found by scanning the linked source code. This listing connects to a hosted endpoint, so none of this runs on your machine: it describes what the server software does where it is hosted.

HTTP Network Access

Connects to external APIs or services over the internet.

How to Connect

Remote Plugin

No local installation needed. Your AI client connects to the remote endpoint directly.

Add this to your MCP configuration to connect:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "com-publicwww-publicwww": {
      "url": "https://api.publicwww.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

PublicWWW MCP server

Search the source code (HTML, JavaScript, CSS) of hundreds of millions of websites from an AI assistant: which sites load a script, use a library, carry a tracking id or a widget. PublicWWW runs a remote MCP server:

https://api.publicwww.com/mcp

Two read-only tools: search (query, rows, page, snippets) and account (plan and searches left today). Every account can use it, a free one included - see limits.

Sign in

  • OAuth - Claude, ChatGPT and Claude Code send you to PublicWWW to press Allow. Nothing to copy.
  • A token - other clients send Authorization: Bearer <token>. Issue one on your profile page and keep it in the PUBLICWWW_TOKEN environment variable.

Install

ClientHow

Anything elsea config file from clients/

The Cursor button reads the token from PUBLICWWW_TOKEN; VS Code asks for it once and keeps it in its secret storage.

Claude Code plugin

The MCP server (sign in with OAuth) and a skill that teaches the query syntax:

/plugin marketplace add publicwww-com/publicwww-mcp
/plugin install publicwww@publicwww

Then run /mcp, pick publicwww and choose Authenticate.

Gemini CLI extension

gemini extensions install https://github.com/publicwww-com/publicwww-mcp

It asks for the token once and keeps it in the system keychain.

Agent skill

skills/publicwww-search is a skill in the open Agent Skills format: how to write PublicWWW queries and use the two tools. Copy the folder into your agent's skills directory (for example .agents/skills/ or ~/.claude/skills/).

Query syntax, briefly

QueryFinds
"angular.min.js"that exact text in the page source
bootstrap jqueryboth, anywhere on the page
jquery (slick | swiper)jquery and either of the two
"amcharts.js" -bootstrapthe first without the second
site:de bootstraponly .de sites
depth:all "math.min.js"inner pages too, not only home pages

More: query syntax.

Calling it directly

examples/mcp-curl.sh lists the tools, reads the account and runs a search with plain curl. Streamable HTTP, JSON answers, no sessions - see for developers.

For scripts the REST API is the simpler road - the same search and token, with CSV and NDJSON. Small clients: Python, JavaScript, PHP, Go, Ruby.
