Install Sherweb in Continue

What you need first

• Continue, installed.
• Docker, which gives the docker command the server starts with.
• Your own values for YOUR_SHERWEB_CLIENT_ID,YOUR_SHERWEB_CLIENT_SECRET,YOUR_SHERWEB_SUBSCRIPTION_KEY.

Steps

1. Open ~/.continue/config.yaml. On Windows it is %USERPROFILE%\.continue\config.yaml.
2. Add this entry. If the file already has mcpServers, add only the item from - name on.

mcpServers:
  - name: "sherweb-mcp"
    type: stdio
    command: "docker"
    args:
      - "run"
      - "-i"
      - "--rm"
      - "-e"
      - "SHERWEB_CLIENT_ID"
      - "-e"
      - "SHERWEB_CLIENT_SECRET"
      - "-e"
      - "SHERWEB_SUBSCRIPTION_KEY"
      - "ghcr.io/wyre-technology/sherweb-mcp:v1.4.3"
    env:
      "SHERWEB_CLIENT_ID": "YOUR_SHERWEB_CLIENT_ID"
      "SHERWEB_CLIENT_SECRET": "YOUR_SHERWEB_CLIENT_SECRET"
      "SHERWEB_SUBSCRIPTION_KEY": "YOUR_SHERWEB_SUBSCRIPTION_KEY"

3. Replace YOUR_SHERWEB_CLIENT_ID,YOUR_SHERWEB_CLIENT_SECRET,YOUR_SHERWEB_SUBSCRIPTION_KEY with your own values.
4. Save the file and restart Continue.

Check it worked

Ask Continue: List the tools of sherweb-mcp.

If it does not start

Cannot connect to the Docker daemon

Docker is not running. Start it, then restart Continue.

The server starts, but its tools fail

A YOUR_… placeholder is still in the config, or its value is wrong.

Nothing changes after a restart

The file is not valid YAML any more. Check that the entry is indented like the lines around it.
