29
+ source, and configuration files.
30
+
31
+ "Object" form shall mean any form resulting from mechanical
32
+ transformation or translation of a Source form, including but
33
+ not limited to compiled object code, generated documentation,
34
+ and conversions to other media types.
35
+
36
+ "Work" shall mean the work of authorship, whether in Source or
37
+ Object form, made available under the License, as indicated by a
38
+ copyright notice that is included in or attached to the work
39
+ (an example is provided in the Appendix below).
40
+
41
+ "Derivative Works" shall mean any work, whether in Source or Object
42
+ form, that is based on (or derived from) the Work and for which the
43
+ editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications
44
+ represent, as a whole, an original work of authorship. For the purposes
45
+ of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain
46
+ separable from, or merely link (or bind by name) to the interfaces of,
47
+ the Work and Derivative Works thereof.
48
+
49
+ "Contribution" shall mean any work of authorship, including
50
+ the original version of the Work and any modifications or additions
51
+ to that Work or Derivative Works thereof, that is intentionally
52
+ submitted to Licensor for inclusion in the Work by the copyright owner
53
+ or by an individual or Legal Entity authorized to submit on behalf of
54
+ the copyright owner. For the purposes of this definition, "submitted"
55
+ means any form of electronic, verbal, or written communication sent
56
+ to the Licensor or its representatives, including but not limited to
57
+ communication on electronic mailing lists, source code control systems,
58
+ and issue tracking systems that are managed by, or on behalf of, the
59
+ Licensor for the purpose of discussing and improving the Work, but

61
+ designated in writing by the copyright owner as "Not a Contribution."
62
+
63
+ "Contributor" shall mean Licensor and any individual or Legal Entity
64
+ on behalf of whom a Contribution has been received by Licensor and
65
+ subsequently incorporated within the Work.
66
+
67
+ 2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
68
+ this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
69
+ worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
70
+ copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,
71
+ publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the
72
+ Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form.
73
+
74
+ 3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
75
+ this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
76
+ worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
77
+ (except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made,
78
+ use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work,
79
+ where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable
80
+ by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
81
+ Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
82
+ with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
83
+ institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
84
+ cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
85
+ or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
86
+ or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
87
+ granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
88
+ as of the date such litigation is filed.
89
+
90
+ 4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
91
+ Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
92
+ modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
93
+ meet the following conditions:
94
+
95
+ (a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
96
+ Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
97
+
98
+ (b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
99
+ stating that You changed the files; and
100
+
101
+ (c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
102
+ that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
103
+ attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
104
+ excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
105
+ the Derivative Works; and
106
+
107
+ (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
108
+ distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
109
+ include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
110
+ within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
111
+ pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
112
+ of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
113
+ as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
114
+ documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
115
+ within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
116
+ wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
117
+ of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
118
+ do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
119
+ notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
120
+ or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
121
+ that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
122
+ as modifying the License.
123
+
124
+ You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
125
+ may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
126
+ for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
127
+ for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
128
+ reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
129
+ the conditions stated in this License.
130
+
131
+ 5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
132
+ any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
133
+ by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
134
+ this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
135
+ Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
136
+ the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
137
+ with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
138
+
139
+ 6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
140
+ names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
141
+ except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
142
+ origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
143
+
144
+ 7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
145
+ agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
146
+ Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
147
+ WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
148
+ implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
149
+ of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
150
+ PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
151
+ appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
152
+ risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
153
+
154
+ 8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
155
+ whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
156
+ unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
157
+ negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
158
+ liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
159
+ incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
160
+ result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
161
+ Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
162
+ work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
163
+ other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
164
+ has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
165
+
166
+ 9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
167
+ the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
168
+ and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
169
+ or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
170
+ License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
171
+ on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
172
+ of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
173
+ defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
174
+ incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
175
+ of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.

41
+ ===========
42
+
43
+ **One read() call for AI agents, stitched from 28 web tools.**
44
+
45
+ Every web tool breaks somewhere. Frankensurf sits in front of all of them and
46
+ gives your agent one call. It tries the cheapest tool first, checks the page is
47
+ real, climbs to a stronger tool only when a site pushes back, and returns clean
48
+ page data with a receipt of how it got there.
49
+
50
+ - **Cheapest first.** Plain HTTP, Jina Reader, a local browser, free stealth
51
+ browsers, hosted browsers, then paid unblockers only if you allow them.
52
+ - **Every page checked.** A challenge page, a login wall, or a search page whose
53
+ results never loaded counts as a failure, not a success.
54
+ - **Shows its work.** Every result says which tools ran, how long each took and
55
+ what it cost.
56
+
57
+ Website and docs: https://frankensurf.dev ·
58
+ `Why I built it <https://frankensurf.dev/blog/i-just-wanted-a-cheap-film-camera/>`_
59
+
60
+ Try it
61
+ ------
62
+
63
+ Python 3.12 or newer, on Linux or Windows through WSL (macOS should work but
64
+ isn't tested yet)::
65
+
66
+ pip install "frankensurf[mcp]"
67
+ frankensurf setup # Chromium + the free stealth browsers, a few minutes
68
+ frankensurf read "https://www.walmart.com/search?q=air+fryer" --explain
69
+
70
+ No account or key needed. The read climbs until it gets the real page::
71
+
72
+ https://www.walmart.com/search?q=air+fryer
73
+ ✗ http CAPTCHA 0.4s
74
+ ✗ local CAPTCHA 1.5s
75
+ ✓ camoufox got the page 15.6s
76
+
77
+ air fryer - Walmart.com
78
+ 24,192 characters via camoufox, complete (107 results), free
79
+
80
+ Drop ``--explain`` for the full JSON: text or markdown, JSON-LD, the page's
81
+ embedded and fetched JSON, images, and the receipt.
82
+
83
+ Free or paid
84
+ ------------
85
+
86
+ Everything works with no keys. Paid tools are opt-in, and only run after the
87
+ free ones fail. From the benchmark below (152 sites picked before any was read):
88
+
89
+ ========================================= ============== =============
90
+ Setup Sites read Cost per 1k
91
+ ========================================= ============== =============
92
+ Free tools only (``frankensurf setup``) 73.7% $0
93
+ Plus paid fallbacks (Firecrawl, Zyte, …) 89.5% $0.73
94
+ ========================================= ============== =============
95
+
96
+ To allow paid tools, set their keys (for example ``FIRECRAWL_API_KEY``) and pass
97
+ ``allow_paid_fallbacks``. See
98
+ `Paid tools and budgets <https://frankensurf.dev/docs/blocked/paid-tools/>`_.
99
+
100
+ Use it
101
+ ------
102
+
103
+ From an agent, as an MCP server
104
+ (`setup for each client <https://frankensurf.dev/docs/agents/>`_)::
105
+
106
+ claude mcp add frankensurf -- frankensurf-mcp
107
+
108
+ From Python::
109
+
110
+ from frankensurf import Runtime
111
+
112
+ async with Runtime("state") as web:
113
+ page = await web.read("https://example.com", policy_overrides={"prefer_markdown": True})
114
+ hits = await web.search("playwright python tutorial")
115
+
116
+ From the command line::
117
+
118
+ frankensurf read https://example.com --markdown
119
+ frankensurf search playwright python tutorial
120
+ frankensurf watch https://news.ycombinator.com/ --link-pattern 'item\?id=\d+'
121
+
122
+ What you get back is raw page data, not answers. Your agent decides what the page
123
+ means, and if it isn't what it wanted, it can ask again with
124
+ ``retry_of=<trace_id>`` to skip every tool already tried.
125
+
126
+ Also in the box: profiles (log in once, reuse the session from any tool), human
127
+ handoff for CAPTCHAs and 2FA, site modules (save what your agent learns about a
128
+ site as data), and Web Bot Auth request signing.
129
+
130
+ How it works
131
+ ------------
132
+
133
+ Every way to fetch a page is a rung: plain HTTP and markdown negotiation,
134
+ browsers, stealth browsers and signed requests, hosted browsers, paid unblockers,
135
+ and finally a person clearing the wall in a visible browser. A read starts at the
136
+ cheapest rung and climbs only when a page pushes back. Every tool is a plugin, so
137
+ new ones slot in as another rung. See
138
+ `How escalation works <https://frankensurf.dev/docs/blocked/escalation/>`_
139
+ and the `full list of integrations <https://frankensurf.dev/docs/integrations/>`_.
140
+
141
+ Benchmark
142
+ ---------
143
+
144
+ ``scripts/toolbench.py`` runs each tool on its own, then Frankensurf, on the same
145
+ pages with the same content checks. 152 sites picked before any was read, one run
146
+ on 6 October 2026, raw rows in ``benchmarks/2026-10-06/``:
147
+
148
+ ========================== ===========
149
+ Tool Sites read
150
+ ========================== ===========
151
+ Headless Chromium only 32.2%
152
+ Plain HTTP only 46.1%
153
+ Camoufox only 48.7%
154
+ Scrapling only 53.3%
155
+ ZenRows only 55.3%
156
+ Jina Reader only 63.8%
157
+ Zyte only 73.7%
158
+ Firecrawl only 80.3%
159
+ **Frankensurf** **89.5%**
160
+ ========================== ===========
161
+
162
+ Frankensurf read 19 sites Firecrawl missed and Firecrawl read 5 Frankensurf
163
+ missed. Frankensurf costs a fifth as much per page, but is slower: median 9.5 s
164
+ against 5.6 s. Scrapfly is left out because its free plan ran out mid-run. See
165
+ `Benchmarks <https://frankensurf.dev/docs/more/benchmarks/>`_.
166
+
167
+ Known walls
168
+ -----------
169
+
170
+ It's an alpha, and some sites still win:
171
+
172
+ - **Need the paid tools:** in a free-only spot check on 9 October, Etsy, Home
173
+ Depot, Yelp, Crunchbase and G2 blocked every free tool.
174
+ - **Beat everything so far:** Shopee, Temu and Idealista.
175
+ - **Logged-in pages** (your feeds, your orders) need a
176
+ `profile <https://frankensurf.dev/docs/read/profiles/>`_.
177
+ - **Slower than one tool:** a read that climbs several rungs takes 10–30 s.
178
+
179
+ Found a site it can't read?
180
+ `Report it <https://github.com/yail259/frankensurf/issues/new?template=site-it-cant-read.yml>`_;
181
+ every report becomes a test case.
