claude-webcache (theYahia/claude-webcache) is an MCP server listed on the M8ven Trust Index. M8ven has not graded it: we have no way to read this server ourselves. No publisher has claimed this listing.

claude-webcache

Cross-session WebFetch cache for Claude Code. Persists fetched docs across sessions via SQLite (7-day TTL) so the same URL+prompt in any new session is an instant cache hit instead of re-fetching

Caution. Specific findings reduced this grade. They are listed on the page. Grades reflect the full trust pyramid: code, verification depth, and reputation. New projects cap at C until adoption is earned.

// key findings
⚠️
Known vulnerabilities in dependencies: 1 high
Affects packages this MCP installs at runtime. Upgrade or remove the affected dependency.
No credential exfiltration, no sensitive file access, no obfuscation
Static analysis found nothing flowing your secrets to unexpected places.
Open source with a license and README
Anyone can audit the code, the license is declared, and the publisher documents what it does.
// known CVEs in dependencies1 high

Disclosed vulnerabilities in this server's declared npm dependencies (via OSV). Whether each is reachable depends on the installed versions.

Model Context Protocol (MCP) TypeScript SDK does not enable DNS rebinding protection by default

// environment variables
To run this server yourself, you supply these values. They go in your own MCP client configuration and stay on your machine. The secret label means the value is sensitive, not that the server mishandles it.
configWEBCACHE_AUTOREADManual lookup is still available if you want it: call cached_fetch(url, prompt) (or cached_search(query)) — returns the cached text, or [CACHE_MISS] … if absent. Disable auto-read with =0.
configWEBCACHE_COMPRESSoff 1 enables gzip on responses ≥4 KB. Stored as base64 in TEXT column. Existing uncompressed rows read fine (BC).
configWEBCACHE_DEBUGoff 1 enables verbose tracing in the auto-cache hook.
configWEBCACHE_DOMAIN_TTLnone Per-domain TTL JSON: {"news.com":1,"reuters.com":1,"arxiv.org":0}. Days; 0 = unlimited. Suffix-matches subdomains. Overrides global TTL when matched.
configWEBCACHE_MAX_OUTPUT_MB10 Reject WebFetch responses larger than N MB. Stats track oversize_skipped counter and last_oversize_url.
configWEBCACHE_MAX_SIZE_MBunlimited Above this size, LRU eviction drops ~20% of oldest-by-last_hit_at entries on next write (debounced every 100 writes).
configWEBCACHE_NAMESPACEgosdelo claude # cache writes/reads scoped to ns "gosdelo"
configWEBCACHE_QUIEToff 1 suppresses hook stderr output (file log at ~/.webcache/hook.log still written).
configWEBCACHE_SEARCH_TTL_HOURS6 TTL for cached WebSearch results (the websearch namespace). Search rankings drift, so this is short by default. 0 = never expire.
configWEBCACHE_STRICT_REDACToff 1 makes the cache key use the redacted URL — collides per endpoint regardless of token value. See Security above.
configWEBCACHE_TTL_DAYSunlimited Global TTL in days. 0 or unset = unlimited.

Tool annotations

No tools have read-only/destructive annotations

Add readOnlyHint or destructiveHint annotations to every tool so hosts can warn users before invoking.

All four hints declared on every tool

9/9 tools missing one or more hints — cached_fetch (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); cached_search (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); cache_store (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +6 more. OpenAI's directory rejects tools where any of the four hints are missing or non-boolean.

For every tool, set all four hints (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint) to explicit true/false values that match the handler’s actual behaviour.

Shell command execution

8 child_process calls — runs shell commands

Prefer library functions over shell-outs. If you must shell out, ensure all inputs are properly escaped.

Production dependencies are patched

0 critical, 1 high severity in production deps — @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.0.0 (high)

Run npm audit fix, or upgrade the affected packages to a non-vulnerable version.

// full audit trail
The findings above are the summary. The full trail, every check we ran, each deduction, the network hosts observed and the dependency advisories, goes to verified publishers, along with an alert whenever a new one lands. Verified publishers can also review each finding and dispute it in one click. Publisher corrections have sharpened several of our checks this month, because the maintainer knows the codebase better than any scanner.
// improvement guidance — verified publishers only
We have 4 concrete improvements we can share with the publisher of this MCP. Each comes with specific guidance to raise the trust score.
