What Chrome Debug MCP does

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Chrome browser automation via debugging protocol, specifically designed to connect to Chrome debugging ports and enable browser automation with persistent login sessions.

Installing the chrome debug mcp mcp server

The server is distributed via npm as chrome-debug-mcp, so most clients can run it without a manual build step. Add it to your MCP client's configuration and restart the client to pick it up — the copy-paste configs for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are on this page.

Where it fits

Browser automation servers are the ones people reach for when a site has no API — the assistant drives a real page instead of guessing at endpoints. Chrome Debug MCP sits in that group. Worth comparing against the other browser automation servers in this directory before you commit to one, since several overlap in scope but differ sharply in setup cost and permissions.

Practical notes

  • This server runs locally, so it operates with whatever access your machine and its credentials already have. Scope that deliberately rather than by default.
  • Maintained by Rainmen-xia.
  • MCP clients ask for confirmation before each tool call by default. Keep that on while you learn what the chrome debug mcp mcp server actually does with your data.
  • Every entry in this directory is reviewed by hand before it goes live, and details are checked against the project's own documentation.
