Make websites accessible for AI agents
Connect Browser to Claude, Cursor or any other MCP client and it stops being a tab you switch to. Make websites accessible for AI agents. The browser mcp server is what makes that connection.
Configuration is passed through the environment: BROWSER_USE_API_KEY, GOOGLE_API_KEY, ANTHROPIC_API_KEY. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.
Because this one is hosted, setup is mostly authentication — you point your client at the endpoint and approve access. Nothing runs on your machine, so there is no runtime to keep patched.
Plenty of browser automation servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. It is maintained by Gregor Zunic; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.
