Pagerunner MCP Server

Pagerunner MCP server is a locally run integration for AI assistants that speak the Model Context Protocol. Chrome browser automation MCP server for AI agents — drives real Chrome with your profiles.

What you get

A Chrome browser automation MCP server. Connect Claude (or any MCP client) to a real Chrome session — using your existing profiles with their cookies, saved passwords, and history.

What the assistant can call

Once Pagerunner is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:

• Interactions — The Interactions tool exposed by this server
• Modes — The Modes tool exposed by this server

Setting it up

Setup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client.

Configuration and credentials

You will need one environment variable: ANTHROPIC_API_KEY. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.

Choosing this one

Among the browser automation options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. Pagerunner's toolset — Interactions, Modes — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by Enreign; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.

Before you rely on it

• It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
• Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients — if no tools show up, check the environment block first.
• MCP clients confirm each tool call by default. Leave that on until you have watched what the pagerunner mcp server does with a few real requests.
