clear_cache

MCP tool from MCP Wayback Machine by Mearman

Clear all cached API responses. Use when fresh data is needed or after saving a new URL.

How to use it

Project documentation lists clear_cache for the MCP Wayback Machine MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), then check which tools your installed version makes available. Tool availability can depend on configuration and credentials. A server handshake does not verify this tool’s behavior. See the full listing for setup details.
