What is WebKit MCP?
WebKit validates emails, generates link previews, and extracts article content into Markdown for AI agents.
Summary generated from the project's README
About WebKit MCP server
WebKit provides a specialized set of tools designed for AI agents to handle web-based data and communication verification. It functions as a remote MCP server that allows clients like Claude, Cursor, VS Code, n8n, and LangChain to perform specific tasks through a Streamable HTTP connection. Users connect by providing their RapidAPI key and host via custom headers in their MCP configuration.
The server focuses on three primary capabilities: validating email addresses, generating link previews, and converting article content into Markdown format. This makes it useful for developers building agents that need to process web content or verify user input without managing heavy local dependencies. Every feature is accessible through a free tier on RapidAPI, requiring only standard HTTPS and JSON communication to function.
What you can do with it
- 1Verify user email addressesAn AI agent can check if an email address is valid to ensure correct user registration.
- 2Generate link previewsA developer can instruct an agent to create a summary preview for a given URL.
- 3Convert articles to MarkdownAn AI client can extract the main text from a webpage and format it as Markdown for better processing.

View on GitHubDeveloper utility APIs + remote MCP servers
Thirteen small, focused REST APIs for everyday developer jobs: validating emails, phones and IBANs, IP geolocation, PDFs, images, QR codes, fraud scoring, token counting and more. Each one is its own product on RapidAPI with a free plan, full OpenAPI docs, and a built-in remote MCP server so AI agents (Claude, Cursor, VS Code, n8n, LangChain) can call it as tools.
- Free tier on every API: subscribe on RapidAPI, copy your key, call it.
- MCP built in: every API exposes Streamable HTTP MCP at
https://<host>.p.rapidapi.com/mcp, and each is listed in the official MCP Registry asio.github.OlsOls4/<kit>. - No heavy dependencies on your side: plain HTTPS + JSON from any language or no-code tool.

Quickstart (REST)
curl -G "https://calkit-public-holidays-business-days-timezones.p.rapidapi.com/business-days/add" \
-d date=2026-12-23 -d days=5 -d country=GB -d subdiv=ENG \
-H "X-RapidAPI-Key: YOUR_RAPIDAPI_KEY" \
-H "X-RapidAPI-Host: calkit-public-holidays-business-days-timezones.p.rapidapi.com"
Swap the host for any API in the table. Every request goes through RapidAPI with X-RapidAPI-Key and X-RapidAPI-Host.
Quickstart (MCP)
Add any API as a remote MCP server in a client that supports Streamable HTTP with custom headers, for example:
{
"mcpServers": {
"calkit": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://calkit-public-holidays-business-days-timezones.p.rapidapi.com/mcp",
"headers": {
"X-RapidAPI-Key": "YOUR_RAPIDAPI_KEY",
"X-RapidAPI-Host": "calkit-public-holidays-business-days-timezones.p.rapidapi.com"
}
}
}
}
The server answers tools/list with that API's endpoints as tools.
