Clify tools (7, 1 write)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postsclify_helpFreeA site's commands with params ("name*" = required, ":a|b" = allowed values, "=x" = default). Pass command for full param docs, default fields and a ready clify_run call.
clify_runwrite actionFreeCall one command of a clify site and get JSON back. args holds the command's params (see clify_help). Lists return count, total and nextPage (args for the next page). Write commands return a dry-run preview unless confirm:true.
clify_sitesFreeSearch the catalogue of 135 real websites clify can call (package registries, government data, science, news, jobs, weather, culture…). Pass a keyword query to get the best sites with their matching commands. Without a query it pages through the catalogue, one line per site ("name (category, commands): about"); filter with category. Start here.
crates__get-crateFreecrates.io: Get a crate's details: description, links, download totals, keywords, categories and default version Returns name, description, default_version, downloads, recent_downloads, num_versions, keywords, categories, repository, documentation, homepage, updated_at by default. (Same as clify_run site=crates command=get-crate.)
hnsearch__searchFreehn.algolia.com: Search stories/comments by relevance Returns title, points, num_comments, author, created_at, url, objectID by default. (Same as clify_run site=hnsearch command=search.)
pypi__get-packageFreepypi.org: Get a package's PyPI page for its latest version: name and version, summary, pip install command, project links and metadata sidebar, and README text. Returns name_version, summary, pip_command, sidebar, description by default. (Same as clify_run site=pypi command=get-package.)
wikipedia__summaryFreeen.wikipedia.org: Short summary of an article (title, description, extract, url) Returns title, description, extract, content_urls.desktop.page by default. (Same as clify_run site=wikipedia command=summary.)

What the publisher says
From the Clify repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
clify: the web, rebuilt for agents
clify turns most websites into a JSON CLI and an MCP server: so far 156 public sites ship with verified commands (open data and government, developer registries, science, maps and weather, culture, news, sports, jobs). An agent explores the site once in a headless browser, records the requests behind what it clicks, writes a typed command for each, and tests every command live before keeping it. After that, agents call the site's own endpoints instead of clicking through pages: same answers, a fraction of the time, tokens and RAM. When a site needs an account, clify signs in with its own identity (email and phone) or with yours. When it hits a CAPTCHA, it stops and asks a human.
Replay of one live run (2026-10-18T09-57-57-642Z), sped up: the GIF starts at 0:17 on the race clock, once the browser has loaded its first page, and plays the 4× video at 4× again (16×). The same model (Claude Opus 5.5) does the same six jobs on five signed-in SaaS dashboards and a forum, once through a browser and once through clify with specs generated by clify add (5 of 6 CLIs generated; svix's robots.txt forbids exploring, so its spec is hand-written). This run: 4.0× faster, 7.3× cheaper. Over all 6 runs: 3.3× faster by mean time (288 s vs 87 s), paired per-run mean 3.5×; 7.3× cheaper by mean cost, paired 7.4×. Details below and in race/.
In numbers: 156 sites ship with 1,802 live-verified read commands in the CLI and hosted MCP, including a new U.S./San Francisco set for events, startup hiring, transit, listings, local news, public data and prediction markets.
Built for YC's Make Something Agents Want hackathon (Oct 17–18, 2026).
Use it with curl, nothing to install
The public agent API is at https://clify-dev.netlify.app. It needs no install, key, or account:
curl "https://clify-dev.netlify.app/search?q=SF+tech+events"
curl "https://clify-dev.netlify.app/luma/discover-events?city=San%20Francisco"
curl "https://clify-dev.netlify.app/bart/get-departures?station=16TH"Use /sites.json for the catalogue, /llms.txt for the full agent guide, and /.json for commands and verified example URLs. Task-specific entry points start with San Francisco and U.S. agent tasks, Luma events, YC startup jobs, BART departures, Craigslist SF listings, and DataSF. Finnish sites remain in the catalogue; their task pages are still available. Machine-readable discovery manifests are at /agent.json and /.well-known/webmcp.json.
Live demo: 6 browser agents vs 6 clify agents
Twelve Claude Code agents (Claude Opus 5.5) start at the same moment: on each of the six sites above, one works in a browser and one with clify, same prompt, same accounts. Every account was created by the agent itself with its own email. Each tile turns green when an independent check finds the object on the live site. Recorded live run of Oct 18, 08:58 PT: clify all 6 verified at 0:27.6 for $0.64; browser agents all 6 verified at 1:43.8 for $2.06. Run it yourself: race/bin/grid (on the machine with the sessions) or race/bin/mac-demo (from a laptop, over ssh); details in race/.

Clify: common questions
- Is Clify MCP server safe?
- Mostly: it is graded B (77/100). Read the Clify safety report
- How do I install Clify?
- It runs remotely at bold-cloud-h4u6s.run.mcp-use.com. Add it to Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code or Claude Desktop with the snippets above, or call it through the mcp.market gateway without installing anything.
- Does Clify need an API key?
- Not as far as the registry entry and our scan can tell: no credentials are declared or required.
- Is Clify maintained?
- The last commit was 13 days ago (2026-10-21). The latest release is v0.3.0.
- Is Clify up?
- 100% of our last 28 checks got an answer. We check remote servers about four times a day.
- How does Clify compare with other MCP servers?
- safety score 77/100 (higher than 50% of 48,255 servers); tools 7 (the typical server has 7); tools that change things 14% (typical: 0%. Fewer write tools means less an agent can break). Full comparison.
