Browser MCP

About

Browser MCP connects AI assistants to a browser through an MCP server and browser extension for interactive web automation.

Key Features

• Navigate websites and fill forms from an MCP client.
• Perform actions in a browser session connected through the extension.

Use Cases

Navigate websites, collect page information and exercise browser workflows through an agent.

Limitations

An active extension connection is required; installing the server alone does not connect a browser.
