About

MCP server and CLI tool for interacting with the Wayback Machine without API keys

Use this server

Add it to your MCP client. The catalogue lists this config verbatim from its source — it does not run, download, or vouch for the server. Review the command before you run it.

Add to Cursor

If the button doesn't open Cursor, use the JSON below — Cursor accepts the same mcpServers config.

VS Code
code --add-mcp '{"name":"mcp-wayback-machine","command":"npx","args":["mcp-wayback-machine"],"env":{"WAYBACK_ACCESS_KEY":"","WAYBACK_SECRET_KEY":""}}'

Environment variables are listed by name only — fill in your own values. Entries never carry secrets.
