This application is a library for automating with Selenium.
This application is a library for automating with Selenium. Exposed over MCP by the web mcp server, that capability becomes something an assistant can invoke while it works, not something you go and do afterwards.
A Python based SDK for web automation using Selenium.
To use this application you must have any of the following browsers installed:
The server ships on PyPI as browserdriver, so your MCP client can launch it on demand — there is no separate build step. Add the server block to your client's configuration, restart it, and the tools register themselves.
Everything the assistant can do here goes through one of these:
Chrome — FirefoxOpera — EdgeYou will need 2 environment variables: CHROME_DRIVER, YOUR_CHROME_DRIVER_PATH. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.
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. Web's toolset — Chrome, Opera — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by Mauricio; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.
