Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Live web checks for AI agents: sitemaps, robots.txt, URL status, broken links, feeds, citations.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs in the cloud
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP
  • Category: Other
  • You need to fill in: Authorization

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 2 of 3 passed
  • Runs on the maker’s server: what you ask it goes through their server.
  • You fill in yourself: Authorization

Values marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

You need

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

This address needs a key in a request header, which the add-connector menu cannot set. Use Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code instead.

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add --transport http web-hygiene https://bruco3--web-hygiene-mcp.apify.actor/mcp --header 'Authorization: your-value'

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "web-hygiene": {
      "url": "https://bruco3--web-hygiene-mcp.apify.actor/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "web-hygiene": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://bruco3--web-hygiene-mcp.apify.actor/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This address needs a key in a request header, which the add-connector menu cannot set. Use Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code instead.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

Values you fill in

  • Authorization secret required HTTP header
    Bearer - get one free at https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations. Tool calls are billed to your Apify account, pay per event.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

What it can do

The server asks you to sign in before it lists its tools.

Common questions

Is Web Hygiene MCP safe?

It passed 2 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: Authorization

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.2.1) reached the registry 2 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

In the same category: Spec Driven Development, Remote Desktop Commander, bot2bot

Web Hygiene MCP

· Official MCP Registry: io.github.Luca-003/web-hygiene-mcp

Remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP) that gives AI agents seven tools answering from the live web — never from a cache or the model's memory:

ToolWhat it does
site_overview(site)robots.txt (sitemaps declared, AI crawlers addressed, blanket disallow), llms.txt, sitemaps with URL count sample, feeds
list_site_urls(site_or_sitemap, max_urls, include_regex, exclude_regex)URLs a site publishes in its sitemaps, with lastmod (≤ 2,000)
check_url(url)HTTP status, full redirect chain, final URL, response time, content type
`check_links(urls \site_or_sitemap, max_urls, problems_only)`Bulk check: 404s, 5xx, timeouts, SSL errors, redirect chains, slow pages (≤ 300)
discover_feeds(site)RSS / Atom / JSON feeds of a website
read_feed(feed_or_site, max_items, include_content)Normalised feed items: title, link, date in UTC, author, summary, enclosures (≤ 100)
`verify_citations(text \urls \citations, check_archive, max_citations)`Per cited URL: verified / mismatch / not-found / redirected-home / paywalled / blocked …, real title/date/author, quote match evidence, Internet Archive copy for dead links (≤ 50)

Connect

URL:    https://bruco3--web-hygiene-mcp.apify.actor/mcp

Header: Authorization: Bearer

Claude Desktop / Cursor / any Streamable HTTP client:

{

"mcpServers": { "web-hygiene": { "url": "https://bruco3--web-hygiene-mcp.apify.actor/mcp", "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_APIFY_API_TOKEN" } } } }

A free Apify account gives you an API token and $5 of monthly credits. Tool calls are billed pay-per-event to your Apify account: a check_url costs a fraction of a cent; verifying the 10 sources of an answer about two cents. No subscription, nothing to run.

Try it — three prompts

  1. *"Check the sources in the answer you just gave me: does each link exist, and is the quote really on the page?"* → verify_citations
  2. *"Before we cite anything from example.com, what does the site publish and allow?"* → site_overview
  3. *"Check every link in this README and tell me which are broken or redirected."* → check_links

Claude Code: ready-made plugin with two skills — /plugin marketplace add Luca-003/web-hygiene-claude-plugin then /plugin install web-hygiene@luca-003 (repo).

Why

Language models are confident about links and sources they have never fetched. These tools let an agent look before it claims: verify a URL exists and where it leads, check robots.txt and llms.txt before quoting a site, read what a site really publishes, confirm a cited page carries the quoted passage.

Legal

The tools request only public files sites publish for automated readers (sitemaps, feeds, robots.txt, llms.txt) and public pages you name, with a clear User-Agent. No personal data is collected or stored.

This repository holds the registry metadata (server.json) and documentation; the server runs on Apify.
