# AIHawk (MCP server)

> AIHawk is an MCP server that adds web browsing tools to AI assistants such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor. AI browser agent: browses, clicks, types, and reads real web pages from plain-English instructions. It has 31,781 GitHub stars, is released under the MIT license and runs locally with uvx aihawk.

Other AI browser agents get captchas. This one is invisible to anti-bots. We bring the interface, you bring an OpenRouter key. Chat on the left, the live browser on the right.
