The agent-ready web: Simplify user actions with WebMCP — Tara Agyemang, Google
Jun 11, 2026 · 21:34
Tara Agyemang from the Google Chrome team introduces WebMCP, a proposed web standard that replaces brittle DOM scraping with structured tools for AI agents. She explains two implementation paths: the declarative API (adding HTML attributes to forms) and the imperative API (registering custom JavaScript tools). A live demo shows a concert ticket purchase completed in three tool calls: search, open page, purchase. WebMCP is in early preview on Chrome 146, with an eval CLI and inspector extension available for testing.
