> MCP server and CLI tool for interacting with the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine. Supports full CDX search, snapshot content retrieval, screenshot listing, snapshot comparison, and optional authentication for higher SPN2 rate limits.

**Stack:** TypeScript · Node.js 22+ · ES Modules · pnpm · Turbo · Zod

## Getting started

Requires Node.js 22+ and [pnpm](https://pnpm.io).

```bash
pnpm install
```

Optional credentials (anonymous access works, but authenticated requests get higher SPN2 rate limits):

```bash
export WAYBACK_ACCESS_KEY="your-access-key"
export WAYBACK_SECRET_KEY="your-secret-key"
```

Obtain credentials at [archive.org/account/s3.php](https://archive.org/account/s3.php).
