MCP bridge between Chromium browsers (Arc, Vivaldi, Brave) and Claude Code: browser automation
MCP bridge between Chromium browsers (Arc, Vivaldi, Brave) and Claude Code: browser automation
A bridge between your Chromium-based browser and Claude Code. The official "Claude in Chrome" extension connects in some Chromium browsers (Arc, Vivaldi, and others) but automation hangs: its tools are built on the tab groups API, which is missing or broken there. This bridge uses only plain chrome.tabs / chrome.scripting / chrome.debugger, so it works in any Chromium browser that can load an extension.
The server publishes 14 tools. What each one is for:
browser_status — Check the connection to the extensionbrowser_tabs_list — List tabs (id, title, URL)browser_navigate — Navigate to a URL; back/forward for historybrowser_page_text — Page title, URL, and visible textbrowser_computer — Mouse/keyboard/screenshots via CDP: clicks by coordinates or ref, drag, hover, type, key combos, scroll, zoomed region screenshot, waitbrowser_read_page — Accessibility tree with ref ids (filter=interactive)browser_find — Find elements by text/role, returns refsbrowser_form_input — Set input/textarea/select/checkbox/contenteditable value by selector or refbrowser_click — DOM click by CSS selector (plain .click())browser_upload_file — Put files into an browser_javascript — Run JS on the page (await supported)browser_console_messages — Tab console (with a regex filter)browser_status — Check the connection to the extensionbrowser_tabs_list — List tabs (id, title, URL)browser_navigate — Navigate to a URL; back/forward for historybrowser_page_text — Page title, URL, and visible textbrowser_computer — Mouse/keyboard/screenshots via CDP: clicks by coordinates or ref, drag, hover, type, key combos, scroll, zoomed region screenshot, waitbrowser_read_page — Accessibility tree with ref ids (filter=interactive)browser_find — Find elements by text/role, returns refsbrowser_form_input — Set input/textarea/select/checkbox/contenteditable value by selector or refbrowser_click — DOM click by CSS selector (plain .click())browser_upload_file — Put files into an browser_javascript — Run JS on the page (await supported)browser_console_messages — Tab console (with a regex filter)browser_network_requests — Tab network requests (with a regex filter)browser_resize_window — Window sizeCompare MCP servers by category, or browse hosted MCP servers if you prefer an endpoint over a local process.
