web-research-mcp 1.0.4 Released

web-research-mcp just hit version 1.0.4, and naturally some people are running into friction. The main complaint floating around is that a required part of the site won't load. Ever notice how the first thing you suspect is always your own setup, not the actual tool?

The team flagged that browser extensions, spotty network connections, or weird browser settings could be triggering the problem. Ad blockers especially have a habit of breaking stuff you didn't expect them to touch. If you've got one running, that's worth disabling first before you assume something's actually broken.

There's no word yet on whether this is a widespread issue or isolated to certain setups. Check your connection, try a different browser, or spin up an incognito window and see if the problem follows you. Sometimes that's all it takes to separate the signal from the noise.
