Playwright Vision MCP Server

run_playwright

Execute custom async Playwright code with managed browser session access to automate web interactions, extract data, and control pages.

Instructions

Execute custom async Playwright code using the server-managed session

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
codeYesAsync JavaScript code body to run with access to page, context, browser, params, console. Example: await page.click("a"); return await page.title();
timeoutMsNoExecution timeout in milliseconds (default 15000)
Behavior2/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure. It only mentions the server-managed session but does not disclose potential side effects, security implications, error handling, or that arbitrary code execution can be destructive or alter session state.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is a single, efficient sentence that front-loads the core purpose. There is no unnecessary information or repetition.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

The tool is powerful and complex, and while the schema covers parameters adequately, the description lacks critical context about what happens after execution, the return value, or how the code interacts with the session. It is minimally viable but has clear gaps.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100%, with both parameters documented in the schema. The description adds no additional parameter semantics beyond what the schema already provides, so the baseline of 3 applies.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the tool executes custom async Playwright code using a server-managed session. This distinguishes it from sibling tools that perform specific browser actions like navigation or clicking.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines3/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description implies it is for custom code scenarios not covered by the more specific sibling tools, but it does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives or provide exclusions.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
