Integrations

Supports element selection via CSS selectors for precisely targeting and interacting with web page elements during browser automation.
Provides specific configuration guidance for macOS users, including file path conventions for setting up the MCP configuration.
Serves as the runtime environment for the MCP server, with specific instructions for setting up Python environments to run the MCP functionality.

MCP Browser Use

What You Can Achieve With This MCP

This project aims to empower AI agents to perform web use, browser automation, scraping, and automation with Model Context Protocol (MCP) and Selenium.

Our mission is to let AI agents complete any web task with minimal human supervision -- all based on natural language instructions.

How to Use This MCP

Please refer to the MCP documentation on modelcontextprotocol.io.

Please note that you will need to install all dependencies in the Python environment that your MCP config file points to. For example, if you point to the python or python3 executable, you will point to the global Python environment. Usually it is preferred to point to a virtual environment such as:

/Users/yourname/code/mcp_browser_use/.venv/bin/python

If you have cloned this repository to your local code folder, your MCP config file should look like this:

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "mcp_browser_use": {
            "command": "/Users/janspoerer/code/mcp_browser_use/.venv/bin/python",
            "args": [
                "/Users/janspoerer/code/mcp_browser_use/mcp_browser_use"
            ]
        }
    }
}

and it will be here (in macOS): /Users/janspoerer/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json.

Please refer to the requirements.txt to see which dependencies you need to install.

Restart Claude to see if the JSON config is valid. Claude will lead to you the error logs for the MCP if something is off.

If the setup was successful, you will see a small hammer icon in the bottom-right of the "New Chat" window in Claude. Next to the hammer will be the number of functions that the MCP provides.
