OpenTiny NEXT-SDKs: Built-in WebMCP & Polyfill + WebSkills + WebAgent

A toolkit for front-end intelligent application development. With the Built-in WebMCP protocol, transform your applications into AI-Native ones instantly.

📖 Docs | 🚀 Quick Start | 🌐 WebMCP & Polyfill | 💡 Scenarios

Important

Next-Gen AI Protocol: OpenTiny NEXT-SDKs is built on the WebMCP (Model Context Protocol for Web). It is fully compatible with the native navigator.modelContext API (currently in experimental stage in browsers like Chrome), allowing your web apps to be controlled by AI via a standardized protocol.

OpenTiny NEXT-SDKs is a front-end intelligent application development toolkit. It enables the "WebMCP + WebSkills" model to expose page operations, data queries, and business processes as standardized tools. By using our Polyfill, you can start building future-proof AI-Native applications on today's browsers with zero refactoring.

✨ Main Features

🔌 Standard WebMCP Implementation: Fully implements the browser version of MCP, making front-ends "AI-Callable" via a unified protocol.
📡 Remote AI Control: Seamlessly connect your front-end to a WebAgent service, allowing AI to remotely orchestrate and control your application via a stable sessionId.
🛠️ Built-in Polyfill Support: Provides navigator.modelContext polyfill for current browsers, ensuring your code works today and is ready for tomorrow's native browser support.
🎯 Zero-Refactor Intelligence: Expose existing business logic and UI operations as tools without changing your app's core architecture.
🧩 WebSkills Abstraction: Organizes tools into "Business Skills" for progressive disclosure to AI.
🤖 AI Chat Components: Ready-to-use @opentiny/next-remoter for instant AI remote control.

🌐 WebMCP & Polyfill

What is WebMCP?

WebMCP is an extension of the Model Context Protocol specifically for web browsers. It defines how a web page provides "Tools" and "Resources" to AI agents. In the near future, browsers will provide a native navigator.modelContext object to manage these capabilities.

Why Polyfill?

Since the native API is still in its experimental phase, OpenTiny NEXT-SDKs provides a robust Polyfill. By calling initializeBuiltinWebMCP(), the SDK:

Injects navigator.modelContext: Provides a standard-compliant API for tool registration.
Automatic Routing & Bridge: Automatically handles page navigation and message synchronization across different routes/iframes.

This means you can write standard WebMCP code today, and it will automatically switch to the native engine when the browser supports it.

📡 Remote Control via WebAgent

One of the most powerful features of NEXT-SDKs is the ability to connect your local page tools to a remote WebAgent. By using the WebMcpClient, you can:

Obtain a Session ID: Establish a persistent connection to the cloud-based AI orchestrator.
Remote Orchestration: Allow the AI to call your page's tools even when you are not actively interacting with the chat UI.
Cross-Device Control: Once connected, your application can be controlled from any authorized MCP client using its sessionId.

Connection Example

import { WebMcpClient } from '@opentiny/next-sdk'

const client = new WebMcpClient()

// Connect to the remote WebAgent service
const { sessionId } = await client.connect({
  agent: true,
  builtin: true, // Enable the built-in WebMCP proxy
  url: 'https://agent.opentiny.design/api/v1/webmcp-trial/mcp'
})

console.log('Connected! Session ID:', sessionId)
// Now your app can be controlled remotely via this sessionId

Tip

The URL above is a public test server provided by OpenTiny for testing purposes. For production use, you should deploy your own WebAgent instance. Source code: https://github.com/opentiny/web-agent

🚀 Quick Start

Turn your front-end application into an AI-Native one in just a few lines.

Step 1: Install Dependencies

npm install @opentiny/next-sdk

Step 2: Initialize WebMCP Polyfill (Recommended)

Add this at your application's entry point (e.g., main.ts or app.js).

import { initializeBuiltinWebMCP } from '@opentiny/next-sdk'

// Initialize Polyfill and Bridge
initializeBuiltinWebMCP()

Step 3: Register Tools via Standard API

Now you can use the standard navigator.modelContext to register tools anywhere in your app:

// Register a tool that AI can call
navigator.modelContext.registerTool({
  name: 'get_user_info',
  description: 'Get current user profile',
  inputSchema: {
    type: 'object',
    properties: {
      userId: { type: 'string' }
    }
  },
  execute: async (args) => {
    // Your business logic here
    return { content: [{ type: 'text', text: `Info for user ${args.userId}` }] }
  }
})

✅ Done! Your app is now an MCP Server. You can connect it to any MCP-compatible client or use our TinyRemoter to start chatting with your app.

💡 Core Concepts

The WebMCP Bridge Architecture

Unlike traditional backend MCP, WebMCP focuses on the Browser Context.

┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│                       Web Browser                           │
│  ┌──────────────────┐              ┌───────────────────┐    │
│  │  Front-end App   │◄── Bridge ──►│   AI Assistant    │    │
│  │ (WebMCP Server)  │              │   (MCP Client)    │    │
│  └──────────────────┘              └───────────────────┘    │
│           ▲                                  │              │
└───────────┼──────────────────────────────────┼──────────────┘
            │          (Standard Protocol)      │
            └──────────────────────────────────┘

Registering: Use navigator.modelContext.registerTool to declare what your app can do.
Bridging: Our Bridge automatically routes AI requests to the correct page/iframe, even if the user has navigated away.
Executing: Tools run in the context of your page, allowing direct access to DOM, State, and APIs.

WebMcpServer

WebMcpServer is the MCP server implementation used to declare front-end application functions as MCP tools.

import { WebMcpServer } from '@opentiny/next-sdk'

const server = new WebMcpServer({
  name: 'my-app',
  version: '1.0.0'
})

// Register tool
server.registerTool(
  'tool-name',
  {
    title: 'Tool Title',
    description: 'Tool Description',
    inputSchema: {
      /* Zod schema */
    }
  },
  async (params) => {
    // Tool logic
    return { content: [{ type: 'text', text: 'Result' }] }
  }
)

WebMcpClient

WebMcpClient is the MCP client implementation used to connect to WebAgent services and other MCP services.

import { WebMcpClient } from '@opentiny/next-sdk'

const client = new WebMcpClient({
  name: 'my-client',
  version: '1.0.0'
})

// Connect to WebAgent
const { sessionId } = await client.connect({
  agent: true,
  url: 'https://agent.opentiny.design/api/v1/webmcp-trial/mcp'
})

Transport Layer

NEXT-SDKs supports multiple communication methods:

MessageChannel: Cross-window communication within the browser.
SSE: Server-Sent Events.
HTTP: Standard HTTP requests.

import { createMessageChannelPairTransport } from '@opentiny/next-sdk'

// Create MessageChannel transport pair
const [serverTransport, clientTransport] = createMessageChannelPairTransport()

❓ FAQ

1. How to obtain sessionId?

Automatically obtained after WebMcpClient connects to WebAgent service:

const { sessionId } = await client.connect({
  agent: true,
  url: 'https://agent.opentiny.design/api/v1/webmcp-trial/mcp'
})

2. How to customize MCP tools?

Use server.registerTool() to register custom tools:

server.registerTool(
  'my-tool',
  {
    title: 'My Tool',
    description: 'Tool description',
    inputSchema: {
      param1: z.string(),
      param2: z.number()
    }
  },
  async (params) => {
    // Implement tool logic
    return { content: [{ type: 'text', text: 'Execution result' }] }
  }
)

3. Which LLMs are supported?

NEXT-SDKs supports all LLMs compatible with AI SDK, including:

OpenAI (GPT-4, GPT-3.5, etc.)
DeepSeek
Anthropic Claude
Qwen
ERNIE Bot
Other custom models

4. How to handle CORS issues?

WebMCP uses MessageChannel for cross-window communication, which is not restricted by browser CORS. If connecting to a remote MCP service, the server needs to correctly configure CORS.

5. Can it be used in React projects?

Yes! The core functionality of NEXT-SDKs is framework-agnostic. Although @opentiny/next-remoter is a Vue3 component, you can:

Use the core SDK directly (@opentiny/next-sdk)
Develop React versions of chat components based on the core SDK
Use browser direct import
