The MCP server that turns any website into an API — no docs, no SDK, no browser. npm: @apitap/core

ApiTap is an MCP server that lets AI agents browse the web through APIs instead of browsers, automatically detecting a site's framework and discovering its internal API endpoints. It generates reusable skill files for direct API calls, reducing token costs by 20-100x compared to browser automation.
