19 Best Browser Automation MCP Servers, Compared (August 2026)

Updated 19 of 2,623 Browser Automation servers in the Glama registryRebuilt weekly

The short answer

For most readers, start with Chrome DevTools MCP. It is built to drive and inspect a live Chrome browser, including network-request monitoring, console inspection, and performance-trace analysis, and it has 49,454 stars, 1,882,510 downloads in a typical week, a commit 0 days ago, and 242 commits in the last 12 weeks. Choose Playwright MCP Server instead when you need exploratory automation from accessibility snapshots without a vision model; it exposes 24 tools and has 6,623,369 downloads in a typical week.

Whichever you choose, give it the narrowest access that still works — a read-only credential, a replica, a scratch account — and widen it only once you have watched what your agent actually asks for.

Glama operates the MCP registry these numbers are measured from, and sells MCP hosting and a gateway. No position on this page is paid for. How the registry is built.

The ranking, with the evidence

Each position is a weighted mean of adoption (40%), maintenance (24%), momentum (14%), tool description quality (13%) and trust (9%), multiplied by three attenuators: how directly the server is about Browser Automation — named for it, declaring it, tagged with it, or merely mentioning it — whether its repository is still moving, and how much independent evidence of adoption it has. Open the score on any entry to see every number, including the ones marked ≈, which were imputed from the median of the other candidates rather than measured. The maintenance grade on each entry is mostly issue responsiveness, release recency and open security alerts rather than commits, so a recent commit beside a low grade is two different measurements rather than a contradiction.

  • Abandoned but popular — People use it, but its default branch has stopped moving. Fine to keep running, risky to adopt.
  • Community favourite — Widely adopted and still actively maintained.
  • Dormant — Neither changing nor widely adopted. Here because it still matches the search.
  • Emerging — Small audience, growing quickly, maintained. The bet with the most upside.
  • Steady — Maintained, modest audience, no surprises in either direction.

    Chrome DevTools MCP

    Community favourite
    ChromeDevTools/chrome-devtools-mcp ↗

    Best for: AI coding assistants that must drive and inspect a live Chrome browser — it exposes network-request monitoring, console inspection, and performance-trace analysis.

    The server gives an MCP client control of a live Chrome browser, exposing automation, network-monitoring, console-debugging, and performance-analysis operations, plus a CLI for use without MCP. Only Google Chrome and Chrome for Testing are officially supported, so other Chromium-based browsers are not guaranteed to work.

    Playwright MCP Server

    Community favourite
    microsoft/playwright-mcp ↗

    Best for: Exploratory automation and self-healing tests—it inspects pages via accessibility snapshots, no vision model required.

    This server exposes a broad toolset—navigation, clicking, typing, snapshots, network requests, and form filling—all driven by structured accessibility data rather than screenshots. Note its browser_run_code_unsafe tool executes arbitrary Playwright code in the server process, equivalent to remote code execution, so only attach it to trusted clients.

    Community favourite
    AgentDeskAI/browser-tools-mcp ↗

    Best for: Debugging a live app in your own logged-in Chrome session — it attaches via a DevTools extension and streams console, network, screenshots and Lighthouse audits.

    The server connects to an existing Chrome session through a DevTools extension and exposes tools for console logs, network requests, screenshots, tab listing, browser storage, and Lighthouse audits. It requires Node 22.19 or newer, loading the extension unpacked from the repo, and keeping DevTools open on the tab to inspect.

    Stealth Browser MCP

    Community favourite
    vibheksoni/stealth-browser-mcp ↗

    Best for: Bypassing Cloudflare and anti-bot challenges in real Chrome instances — it exposes CDP-based tools for network inspection and element cloning.

    The server runs a real Chrome-family browser via nodriver and CDP, exposing tools for navigation, element extraction, network inspection, and JavaScript execution. It requires a local Python 3.10+ environment with Chrome, Chromium, or Edge installed, and its tool surface is not measured at publication.

    OpenChrome

    Community favourite
    shaun0927/openchrome ↗

    Best for: Authenticated multi-site research in one real Chrome — it runs parallel lanes with existing logins and no re-auth.

    OpenChrome drives a real, already-logged-in Chrome via CDP, exposing over one hundred tools for navigation, DOM queries, forms, network capture, workflows, and performance diagnostics, with a CLI and playbook runner on top. Before adopting it, know that it requires the agent host to launch and manage a dedicated Chrome instance (a normal Chrome without the remote-debugging port stays separate); installation is via npm (or optional standalone executables), and as a wrapper around Chrome it depends on Chrome being present.

    Chrome MCP Server

    Abandoned but popular
    hangwin/mcp-chrome ↗

    Best for: Automating a user's already-open Chrome browser with existing login states — it connects via a Chrome extension rather than launching a separate browser.

    Chrome MCP Server is a Chrome-extension-based MCP server that gives AI assistants control of the user's existing Chrome browser and documents tools for screenshots, network monitoring, interactive operations, bookmark management, and browsing history. The main requirement before choosing it is manual setup: Node.js 20.0.0 or newer, Chrome/Chromium, a globally installed npm bridge, and an unpacked extension loaded from the repository's release download.

    Community favourite
    obra/superpowers-chrome ↗

    Best for: For browser automation in environments that cannot run npm installs — it exposes a single use_browser tool that controls Chrome via CDP and auto-captures pages.

    It exposes a single use_browser tool that drives a persistent Chrome browser via the Chrome DevTools Protocol, automatically capturing page state after each DOM action. Before choosing it, note that it requires Chrome to be installed and on Linux/WSL2 headed mode the MCP server needs the DISPLAY environment variable.

    AdsPower LocalAPI MCP Server

    Community favourite
    AdsPower/adspower-browser ↗

    Best for: Managing AdsPower browser profiles and automating pages in them — it exposes profile lifecycle and in-page interaction tools.

    It wraps AdsPower's LocalAPI, exposing 27 tools that create, open, close, update, and delete browser profiles, manage groups, and drive pages with navigation, clicking, filling, and script evaluation. The server requires a running AdsPower client (headless mode supported) and an API key/port; some APIs depend on the client version and may return 'Not found' if it is outdated.

    firefox-devtools-mcp

    Community favourite
    mozilla/firefox-devtools-mcp ↗

    Best for: Local Firefox testing and scraping — it provides snapshot/UID-based interactions and always-on network and console capture.

    It automates a local Firefox via WebDriver BiDi, with tools for navigation, snapshot/UID clicks and fills, network monitoring, console capture, screenshots, downloads, dialogs, and evaluate_script. Before choosing, note it requires a local Firefox installation (Node.js >= 20.19.0) and cannot run on cloud hosting.

    LinkedIn MCP Server

    Community favourite
    stickerdaniel/linkedin-mcp-server ↗

    Best for: Recruiters and job seekers with an active LinkedIn session — it offers 17 tools for profile, company, job, and inbox scraping.

    It automates a logged-in browser to scrape LinkedIn profiles, companies, jobs, and messages, exposing tools for search, retrieval, and even sending connection requests or messages. The server requires an active LinkedIn session in a local browser, and write operations like send_message trigger a confirmation prompt.

    mcp-playwright

    Abandoned but popular
    executeautomation/mcp-playwright ↗

    Best for: For teams automating browser workflows and generating Playwright tests — it offers codegen sessions alongside navigation, click, fill, and screenshot tools.

    The server exposes 32 tools for browser control, including navigation, clicking, filling, screenshots, JavaScript evaluation, HTTP requests, and codegen sessions that record actions into test files. It assumes a Node.js runtime for installation via npm or npx, and automatically installs browser binaries on first use, so no separate Playwright setup is needed.

    BrowserStack MCP server

    Community favourite
    browserstack/mcp-server ↗

    Best for: Teams on BrowserStack's Test Platform — all five tools route live sessions, test runs, and accessibility scans into BrowserStack's cloud instead of a local browser.

    Each of the five tools either starts a live app or website session on a chosen device or browser/OS combination, returns instructions for running test suites on BrowserStack, debugs the last run's failures when browserstack.yml is in the project root, or launches an accessibility scan for listed URLs. Before installing, know that every tool assumes BrowserStack's cloud infrastructure with no local fallback, and the README requires Node.js 18 or newer.

    FableCut

    Community favourite
    ronak-create/FableCut ↗

    Best for: An agent editing a browser video project live while a human watches — its patch_project applies targeted timeline-JSON edits without round-tripping the whole document.

    FableCut runs a browser-based video editor and exposes seven MCP tools — status, docs, get project, patch project, set project, analyze reference, import media — with the timeline represented as one JSON document that can be hot-reloaded in the open UI. The one thing worth knowing before choosing it is that no npm package is published: deployment is a single node server.js, and the browser UI is what hot-reloads the live timeline.

    playwriter

    Community favourite
    remorses/playwriter ↗

    Best for: Automating a browser you already use, with existing logins and extensions—it connects to your running Chrome instead of launching a fresh one.

    It attaches to a running Chrome browser through a companion extension and documents CLI commands for navigation, clicking, snapshots, screenshots, and debugging via the Playwright API. Before choosing it, note that it assumes the extension is installed in your browser and that the browser must already be running.

    TradingView MCP Bridge

    Community favourite
    tradesdontlie/tradingview-mcp ↗

    Best for: AI-assisted Pine Script development and chart automation on TradingView Desktop—its CDP bridge exposes commands for scripting, navigation, alerts, and screenshots.

    The server connects an AI assistant to a locally running TradingView Desktop via Chrome DevTools Protocol, exposing tools for Pine Script injection, chart navigation, drawing, alerts, replay, screenshots, and chart monitoring. Note that it requires a paid TradingView Desktop setup started with a debug flag, and it relies on TradingView's undocumented internal Electron structure that may break.

    OpenTabs

    Community favourite
    opentabs-dev/opentabs ↗

    Best for: Automating authenticated web apps without API keys — it exposes 42 tools and talks to each site's internal APIs via a Chrome extension.

    OpenTabs runs a local MCP server bridged to Chrome by an extension, exposing tools for tab control, clicking, typing, network capture, and storage access, with plugins for services like Slack, Discord, and GitHub. Before choosing it, know that all 42 tools ship disabled and must be explicitly enabled, and that it requires Node.js 22+ and Chrome.

Questions people ask

Chrome DevTools MCP or Playwright MCP Server: which should I install?

Chrome DevTools MCP is the better choice when you need to drive and inspect a live Chrome browser: it is built for network-request monitoring, console inspection, and performance-trace analysis, and it had a commit 0 days ago with 242 commits in the last 12 weeks. Playwright MCP Server is the better choice when you want accessibility-snapshot automation without a vision model, and it has 6,623,369 downloads in a typical week versus Chrome DevTools MCP's 1,882,510. If you only have time to install one and your task is general Chrome automation, Chrome DevTools MCP is the safer active default.

Which server works with my existing Chrome logins?

playwriter connects to your running Chrome browser and keeps existing logins and extensions; it had a commit 4 days ago and 144 commits in the last 12 weeks. Chrome MCP Server also uses existing login states through a Chrome extension, but it has had 0 commits in the last 12 weeks and its last commit was 226 days ago. browser-tools-mcp is the alternative if your goal is debugging a logged-in session: it attaches via a DevTools extension and streams console, network, screenshots, and Lighthouse audits.

I need Firefox automation. Which MCP server should I use?

firefox-devtools-mcp is the Firefox option with the strongest measured activity: 32 tools, tool descriptions graded B, a commit 0 days ago, and 85 commits in the last 12 weeks. It is built for testing, scraping, and browser control via WebDriver BiDi, with snapshot/UID-based interactions, network monitoring, console capture, and screenshots. Browser Control MCP also targets Firefox, but it is for tab management, history search, and content reading through a paired extension, not general test automation.

What's the difference between mcp-playwright and Playwright MCP Server?

Playwright MCP Server (microsoft/playwright-mcp) is the active one: it had a commit 1 day ago, 22 commits in the last 12 weeks, 24 tools, and tool descriptions graded B. mcp-playwright (executeautomation/mcp-playwright) exposes 32 tools with the same B grade, but it is labelled 'Abandoned but popular' and had a commit 250 days ago with 0 commits in the last 12 weeks. If you need Playwright automation that is still being worked on, choose Playwright MCP Server; if you specifically want its codegen sessions, mcp-playwright is the one that offers them.

What do I need before BrowserStack MCP server will run?

BrowserStack MCP server only makes sense if you are on BrowserStack's Test Platform; its five tools route live sessions, test runs, and accessibility scans into BrowserStack's cloud rather than automating a local browser. It exposes 5 tools and had a commit 3 days ago with 122 commits in the last 12 weeks, so the project itself is active.

What should I be careful about when pointing an agent at my authenticated browser?

Several servers are built to use your existing logged-in session. playwriter connects to your running Chrome and keeps existing logins and extensions; OpenTabs works through your authenticated browser session via a Chrome extension; Chrome MCP Server leverages existing login states. That means the agent can operate in places where you are already signed in, so keep that in mind when choosing what to ask it to do. For local debugging, browser-tools-mcp attaches to your logged-in Chrome via a DevTools extension and can stream console, network, screenshots, and Lighthouse audits from that session.
