Browser Tools MCP is an MCP server and Chrome extension that gives AI agents safe, structured access to your live browser for debugging and automation. It can capture console/network logs, DOM snapshots, and screenshots, and expose them as typed resources the agent can query or act on. The design aims to make IDE agents (e.g., Cursor, Claude Desktop) more “web-aware,” enabling workflows like reproducing a bug, collecting evidence, and proposing fixes without copy-pasting. Documentation and community guides outline a quick setup, including the extension, the MCP server process, and common troubleshooting steps. The project is actively maintained, with public commit activity and discussions around connectivity and reliability in different IDEs. Overall, it bridges the gap between local coding agents and the real browser they need to observe and manipulate.
