What is WebCrypt MCP?
WebCrypt provides AI agents with cryptographic tools for symmetric and asymmetric encryption, digital signatures, and post-quantum security.
Summary generated from the project's README
About WebCrypt MCP server
WebCrypt MCP Server provides autonomous coding agents with a secure cryptographic vault for managing sensitive data. It enables AI clients to perform symmetric and asymmetric encryption, digital signatures, and hashing using native Web Crypto API calls. This server is designed for local execution, ensuring that all cryptographic operations occur in memory without external network transmissions or telemetry.
Developers can integrate this server into environments like Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Cline, and Zed. It uses the Stdio JSON-RPC 2.0 protocol to communicate with agents. The toolset includes specific functions such as encrypt_payload for AES-256-GCM or RSA-4096 operations, manage_keys for generating JWK keypairs, and pqc_kem_sign for post-quantum security using Kyber and Dilithium algorithms.
This server is ideal for agents that need to protect API keys, sign code diffs, or establish private messaging channels through ECDH key agreement. Because it relies on the native crypto.subtle implementation, it works across Node.js 18+, Bun, and various browser runtimes without requiring external dependencies.

Zero-dependency Web Crypto & native AI Agent Tooling (MCP) for modern JavaScript.
AES-256-GCM symmetric encryption, RSA-4096 hybrid public keys, ECDH key agreement, ECDSA/HMAC digital signatures, and Post-Quantum KEM (Kyber/Dilithium) — zero runtime dependencies, pure Web Crypto API.
⚡ Quickstart (15 Seconds)
1. Installation
# 📦 Install as project library (Node.js, TypeScript, Browser)
npm install webcrypt
# 🌐 Install globally (CLI utilities & global MCP tools)
npm install -g webcrypt
import { WebCrypt, WebCryptAsym } from "webcrypt";
// 🔒 Symmetric AES-256-GCM (600k PBKDF2 iterations)
const wc = new WebCrypt();
const encrypted = await wc.encryptText("Secret payload", "password");
const decrypted = await wc.decryptText(encrypted, "password");
// 🔑 Asymmetric RSA-4096 Hybrid Encryption
const wca = new WebCryptAsym();
const keyPair = await wca.generateKeyPair(4096);
const cipher = await wca.encryptText("Secret payload", keyPair.publicKey);
const plain = await wca.decryptText(cipher, keyPair.privateKey);
2. Auto-Setup for AI Agents & IDEs (MCP Server)
# Initialize MCP server, agent skills, and rules across your project
npx webcrypt init # or `webcrypt init` if installed globally
Supports Google Antigravity, Cursor, Claude Desktop, VS Code / Copilot, Windsurf, Cline, and Zed.
🤖 Why AI Agents Need WebCrypt MCP
Equip autonomous coding agents with an authenticated cryptographic vault directly in their toolbelt:
- 🔐 Confidential Local Vaulting (
encrypt_payload): Encrypt API keys and state memory before writing to disk to prevent prompt log leaks. - 🛡️ Tamper-Proof Provenance (
sign_verify): Cryptographically sign test evidence packs, release binaries, and code diffs with ECDSA or HMAC. - 🤝 Inter-Agent Key Exchange (
manage_keys): Ephemeral JWK keypairs (RSA-4096, ECDH P-256/P-384) for private agent-to-agent messaging. - ⚛️ Post-Quantum Guardrails (
pqc_kem_sign): Built-in Kyber KEM and Dilithium signatures future-proof long-term agent artifacts. - ⚡ Zero Dependencies: 100% native
crypto.subtleexecution across Node.js 18+, Bun, browsers, and Edge runtimes.
