Camoufox Research

MCP web-research server on the anti-detect browser Camoufox: search, page reading (including JS/SPA), batch reading, clicks, text input, live sessions, cache and retry. Installed as a regular Python package and connects to any MCP harness (opencode, Claude Desktop, Cursor…).

Installation

git clone <ваш-репозиторий> camoufox-reasearch && cd camoufox-reasearch

# 1. venv + пакет
python3 -m venv ~/.venvs/camoufox-research
~/.venvs/camoufox-research/bin/pip install .

# 2. скачать браузер (один раз)
~/.venvs/camoufox-research/bin/python -m camoufox fetch

# 3. проверить
~/.venvs/camoufox-research/bin/camoufox-research   # ждёт stdin (stdio)

Windows: venv\Scripts\pip.exe install ., venv\Scripts\python.exe -m camoufox fetch; requires Python not from MS Store and VC++ Redistributable (details — in the docstring scripts/update_camoufox.py).

MCP Connection

opencode (~/.config/opencode/opencode.json):

{
  "mcp": {
    "camoufox": {
      "type": "local",
      "command": ["/путь/до/venv/bin/camoufox-research"],
      "enabled": true
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop and others — ready-made examples in mcp/config/. Without installing the package, you can run python mcp/server.py (shim).

Check: opencode mcp listcamoufox: connected.

Behavior

  • The browser lives in a separate worker process (sync, headless=True) — the stdio server is not blocked.

  • JS pages (SPA/React/Next) are read without preparation: content polling + scroll + stability; if empty — retry.

  • Cache: sqlite ~/.cache/camoufox-research/cache.db, TTL one day, retry with backoff, memory/network limits (macOS vm_stat).

  • Configuration — only via environment (see configs/example.env): CAMOUFOX_VENV, CAMOUFOX_CACHE_DIR, timeouts, proxy.

CI

On every push GitHub Actions checks: package installation on Python 3.10/3.11/3.12, import compilation, MCP stdio smoke (initialize → tools/list → ping). Full test with the browser — locally (update_camoufox.py + manual smoke).
