WebShift

What is WebShift

WebShift is a Rust library and MCP server that shifts noisy web pages into clean, right-sized text for LLM consumption.

Raw HTML is mostly junk: scripts, ads, navigation menus, cookie banners, tracking pixels. Feeding it directly to an LLM floods the context window with tens of thousands of useless tokens and leaves no room for reasoning. WebShift strips all that noise, sterilizes the text, and enforces strict size budgets so the model receives only the content that matters.

What you get

Depending on the features you enable, WebShift can be four things:

Use case	Crate	Feature flags	What it does
HTML denoiser	`webshift`	`default-features = false`	`clean()` — pure Rust HTML-to-text pipeline. Strips noise elements, sterilizes Unicode/BiDi, collapses whitespace. Zero network, zero config. Drop into any Rust project that processes web content for LLMs.
HTML text rewriter	`webshift`	`features = ["text-map"]`	`extract_text_nodes()` + `replace_text_nodes()` — extract individual text nodes from HTML, manipulate them (translate, rewrite, simplify), and rebuild the HTML with structure intact. Tags, attributes, and links are never touched.
Web content client	`webshift`	`default` or `features = ["llm"]`	`fetch()` + `query()` — streaming HTTP fetcher with size caps, 8 search backends, BM25 reranking, optional LLM query expansion and summarization. Full pipeline from search query to structured results.
MCP server	`webshift-mcp`	all features	Native binary (`mcp-webshift`) that exposes `webshift_query`, `webshift_fetch`, and `webshift_onboarding` over MCP stdio. Single static binary, zero runtime dependencies.

When to use WebShift

You're building an AI agent that needs web search and you want clean, budget-controlled text — not raw HTML.
You're processing web pages in a Rust pipeline and need a reliable HTML-to-text cleaner that strips noise without losing real content.
You need an LLM to translate, rewrite, or simplify text inside HTML without corrupting the markup — text-map gives you a safe round-trip.
You want an MCP web search server that works as a single binary — no Python, no pip, no venv, no Docker (unless you want it).
You need hard guarantees on output size: per-page caps, total budget caps, streaming download limits.

When NOT to use WebShift

You need a headless browser that renders JavaScript-heavy SPAs. WebShift parses static HTML — it doesn't execute JS.
You need to render or screenshot a page preserving its visual layout. WebShift processes HTML structure but does not render CSS or compute layout. (Note: text-map does preserve the DOM structure for text rewriting use cases.)
You're building a web scraper that needs to navigate across pages, fill forms, or handle authentication flows.

Installation

Binary (MCP server)

bash

cargo install webshift-mcp

The binary is called mcp-webshift.

From source

bash

cargo install --path crates/webshift-mcp

As a library

toml

# Full pipeline (search + fetch + clean + rerank)

webshift = "0.2"



# Cleaner + fetcher only (no search backends)

webshift = { version = "0.2", default-features = false }



# Text-map only (extract/replace text nodes in HTML)

webshift = { version = "0.2", default-features = false, features = ["text-map"] }



# Everything including LLM features

webshift = { version = "0.2", features = ["llm"] }

Quick start

1. Set up a search backend

The easiest option is SearXNG — free, self-hosted, no API key:

Terminal

docker run -d -p 8080:8080 searxng/searxng

No Docker? Use a cloud backend — see Search backends.

2. Configure your MCP client

config.json

{

  "mcpServers": {

    "webshift": {

      "command": "mcp-webshift",

      "args": ["--default-backend", "searxng"]

    }

  }

}

That's it. The agent now has webshift_query, webshift_fetch, and webshift_onboarding.

For client-specific setup see docs/integrations/.

Bing	API key	Web Search API. Free: 1,000 req/month. Microsoft Azure
HTTP	configurable	Generic REST backend — no code required, TOML-only config

LLM features (optional)

All opt-in — disabled by default, no data leaves your machine unless enabled.

Feature	What it does
Query expansion	Single query -> N complementary search variants
Summarization	Markdown report with inline `[1]` `[2]` citations
LLM reranking	Tier-2 reranking on top of deterministic BM25

Cross-language normalization (bonus): when BM25 reranking surfaces pages in foreign languages (e.g. Chinese, Japanese, Arabic), the LLM summarizer still produces the final report in the prompt language. The agent receives clean, readable output regardless of the language mix in the source pages.

Works with any OpenAI-compatible API (OpenAI, Ollama, vLLM, LM Studio, etc.):

Anti-flooding protections

Always active — the core value proposition:

Protection	Description
`max_download_mb`	Streaming cap — never buffers full response
`max_result_length`	Hard cap on characters per cleaned page
`max_query_budget`	Total character budget across all sources
`max_total_results`	Hard cap on results per call
Binary filter	`.pdf`, `.zip`, `.exe`, etc. filtered before any network request
Unicode sterilization	BiDi control chars, zero-width chars removed

Library usage

server.ts

use webshift::{Config, clean, fetch, query};



// Clean raw HTML — cap output at 8000 chars

let result = clean("<html><body><p>Hello world</p></body></html>", 8000);

println!("{}", result.text);



// Pass 0 to disable the per-page cap entirely (no truncation)

let full = clean("<html><body><p>Hello world</p></body></html>", 0);

assert!(!full.truncated);



// Fetch and clean a single page

let config = Config::default();

let page = fetch("https://example.com", &config).await?;



// Full search pipeline

let results = query(&["rust async programming"], &config).await?;

for source in &results.sources {

    println!("[{}] {} — {} chars", source.id, source.title, source.content.len());

}



// Backend partial failures (CAPTCHA, rate-limits, engine outages) are surfaced

// in `warnings` rather than as Err. Empty sources + non-empty warnings means

// "all backends blocked" — distinct from a legitimate "no matches found".

if results.sources.is_empty() && !results.warnings.is_empty() {

    eprintln!("all backends failed: {:?}", results.warnings);

}

Text-map: rewrite HTML content without breaking markup

Extract text nodes, manipulate them (translate, rewrite, simplify), and rebuild the HTML with structure, attributes, and links intact.

rust

use webshift::{extract_text_nodes, replace_text_nodes, TextReplacement};



let html = r#"<p>Hello <a href="https://example.com">world</a></p>"#;

let map = extract_text_nodes(html);

// map.nodes = [(0, "Hello"), (1, "world")]



let replacements = vec![

    TextReplacement { id: 0, text: "Ciao".into() },

    TextReplacement { id: 1, text: "mondo".into() },

];

let result = replace_text_nodes(html, &replacements).unwrap();

// → <p>Ciao <a href="https://example.com">mondo</a></p>

// href untouched, tags intact, only text changed.

Requires features = ["text-map"]. See Use Cases #11 for a full translation example.
