About wigolo
wigolo gives an agent one interface for web work: search, fetch, crawl, extract, cache, find-similar and multi-step research. It runs locally next to the agent as an MCP server, and also as a REST API with TypeScript and Python SDKs and integrations for LangChain, CrewAI, LlamaIndex, the Vercel AI SDK and n8n. Core tools need no API key; a free key is recommended for its research tool.
wigolo is an open-source project written primarily in TypeScript, with 5.4k stars on GitHub. It was last updated in September 2026.
