Most developer tooling work still happens through a UI a human drives. Chrome Debug MCP MCP server moves it into the conversation instead. This MCP allows you to record browser interactions with a chrome extension that include screenshots and console logs. The data is then saved to a local database that feeds the data to an AI system like claude code to search.
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) implementation for browser automation using Playwright, with full Greasemonkey API support.
Installation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at chrome-debug-mcp-playwright on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.
The server publishes 2 tools. What each one is for:
Prerequisites — The Prerequisites tool exposed by this serverSetup — The Setup tool exposed by this serverAmong the developer tooling 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. Chrome Debug MCP's toolset — Prerequisites, Setup — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow.
