Clients mentioned in this server's README:
Desktop · Freemium · MIT
VS Code integrates MCP with GitHub Copilot through agent mode, allowing direct interaction with MCP-provided tools in your agentic coding workflow. Configure servers in Claude Desktop, workspace, or user settings, with guided MCP installation and secure handling of secrets in input variables to avoid leaking hardcoded keys.
microsoft/playwright
Playwright is a framework for web automation and testing. It drives Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit with a single API — in your tests, in your scripts, and as a tool for AI agents.
microsoft/playwright-mcp
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides browser automation capabilities using Playwright. This server enables LLMs to interact with web pages through structured accessibility snapshots, bypassing the need for screenshots or visually-tuned models.
AgentDeskAI/browser-tools-mcp
Give your AI coding agent eyes on the browser. BrowserTools MCP streams console output, network activity, screenshots and Lighthouse audits from your real Chrome session — the one already logged into your app — to any MCP-compatible client: Cursor, Claude Code, Windsurf, Cline, Zed, Gemini CLI, and others.
executeautomation/mcp-playwright
A Model Context Protocol server that provides browser automation capabilities using Playwright. This server enables LLMs to interact with web pages, take screenshots, generate test code, web scrapes the page and execute JavaScript in a real browser environment.
browserbase/mcp-server-browserbase
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open protocol that enables seamless integration between LLM applications and external data sources and tools. Whether you're building an AI-powered IDE, enhancing a chat interface, or creating custom AI workflows, MCP provides a standardized way to connect LLMs with the context they need.
browsermcp/mcp
Browser MCP is an MCP server + Chrome extension that allows you to automate your browser using AI applications like VS Code, Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf.
