MCP server for browser automation using Puppeteer with configurable options
Connect MCP Configurable Puppeteer to Claude, Cursor or any other MCP client and it stops being a tab you switch to. MCP server for browser automation using Puppeteer with configurable options. The mcp configurable puppeteer mcp server is what makes that connection.
A Model Context Protocol server that provides browser automation capabilities using Puppeteer with configurable options. This server enables LLMs to interact with web pages, take screenshots, and execute JavaScript in a real browser environment, with the ability to customize Puppeteer launch options through environment variables.
The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:
puppeteer_navigate — Navigate to any URL in the browserInput — url (string)puppeteer_screenshot — Capture screenshots of the entire page or specific elementsInputs — - name (string, required): Name for the screenshotpuppeteer_click — Click elements on the pagepuppeteer_hover — Hover elements on the pagepuppeteer_fill — Fill out input fieldspuppeteer_select — Select an element with SELECT tagpuppeteer_evaluate — Execute JavaScript in the browser consoleTools — The Tools tool exposed by this serverResources — 1. Console Logs (console://logs) - Browser console output in text format - Includes all console messages from the browserSetup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client. The configuration blocks on this page cover the common clients.
Configuration is passed through the environment: PUPPETEER_ARGS. 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.
This sits in the browser automation group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. MCP Configurable Puppeteer's toolset — puppeteer_navigate, Input, puppeteer_screenshot and 8 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by afshawnlotfi; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
