Agent prompt

Set up Clawifi for me. Run pip install clawifi (Python 3.11 or newer), add the MCP server to this client with my key (for Claude Code: claude mcp add clawifi -e CLAWIFI_API_KEY=your_key -- clawifi-mcp), then check it with CLAWIFI_API_KEY=my_key clawifi quicktest --url https://example.com. The steps are at https://clawifi.dev/docs/quickstart.md

Install in your client#

claude mcp add clawifi -e CLAWIFI_API_KEY=your_key -- clawifi-mcp
Add to CursorInstall in VS Code

  2. 2. Install

    One package installs the MCP server (clawifi-mcp) and the CLI. It needs Python 3.11 or newer.

    Install
    pip install clawifi
  3. 3. Add to your client

    Add Clawifi to your agent with your key. Choose your client below; each line is all it needs.

    The lines for every client are in the install card above and on Clients.

  4. 4. First call

    Ask your agent to search or read a page (for example "search the web for the Model Context Protocol spec"), or check the key from a terminal first.

    First call
    CLAWIFI_API_KEY=your_key clawifi quicktest --url https://example.com
