MCP Server for browser-based web page fetching with automatic cookie support
Mcp fetchpage mcp server lets Claude, Cursor and other MCP clients work with MCP Fetchpage directly. MCP Server for browser-based web page fetching with automatic cookie support.
Browser-based web page fetching with automatic cookie support and CSS selector extraction.
The server is distributed via npm as @modelcontextprotocol/inspector, 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.
The server reads one environment variable: MCP_FETCH_PAGE_DATA_DIR. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than committing them.
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. MCP Fetchpage 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.
