Browser MCP is an MCP server plus Chrome extension that lets AI applications like Claude, Cursor, VS Code, and Windsurf control the user's existing browser. It is adapted from Microsoft's Playwright MCP server but automates the user's real browser profile instead of launching new instances, keeping sessions logged in and avoiding basic bot detection.
Use cases
- automate my browser with AI
- let Claude or Cursor fill out web forms for me
- run end-to-end UI tests from my AI code editor
- automate repetitive web tasks like data collection
- use my logged-in browser sessions with AI automation
- avoid CAPTCHAs and bot detection during browser automation
When to choose
- you want AI apps to drive your real, logged-in browser profile
- you need local, private browser automation without remote servers
- you want to avoid basic bot detection and CAPTCHAs by using a real browser fingerprint
- you use Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or Windsurf and want browser control via MCP
When to avoid
- you need headless automation or spawning fresh isolated browser instances (use Playwright MCP instead)
- you need a fully self-contained build - the repo depends on private monorepo code and cannot be built standalone
- you need large-scale scraping or parallel automation across many sessions
