camofox-mcp

MCP server for CamoFox — anti-detect browser automation for AI agents.

No local browser is launched. This is a thin MCP wrapper over the CamoFox REST API running elsewhere (Docker, remote server, etc.).

Why

CamoFox provides anti-detect browsing via Camoufox (Firefox fork with C++ fingerprint spoofing). This MCP server lets any MCP-compatible AI agent (OpenClaw, Claude Desktop, etc.) use it as a tool.

Quick Start

1. Start CamoFox server somewhere

# Docker (recommended)
docker run -p 9377:9377 jo-inc/camofox-browser

# Or standalone
git clone https://github.com/jo-inc/camofox-browser
cd camofox-browser && npm install && npm start

2. Run the MCP server

# With uvx (no install needed)
CAMOFOX_URL=http://your-server:9377 uvx camofox-mcp

# Or install and run
pip install camofox-mcp
CAMOFOX_URL=http://your-server:9377 camofox-mcp

3. Configure your MCP client

OpenClaw (mcporter)

mcporter config add camofox --stdio \
  "CAMOFOX_URL=http://your-server:9377 CAMOFOX_USER=agent uvx camofox-mcp"

Architecture

AI Agent ←(MCP/stdio)→ camofox-mcp ←(REST/HTTP)→ CamoFox Server ←→ Camoufox Browser

The MCP server is stateless — all state lives in the CamoFox server. Multiple MCP clients can connect to the same CamoFox instance with different CAMOFOX_USER values for session isolation.

Security

  • All user inputs (URLs, text, refs) are JSON-encoded — no shell interpolation

  • Tab IDs are URL-encoded before use in paths

  • No credentials are stored or transmitted beyond what CamoFox requires

  • The MCP server never launches a browser — it only proxies to an existing CamoFox instance

One endpoint for every MCP toolRayrun runs every MCP server behind one URL and holds the credentials. Each call is decided per client, tool, and argument, then recorded.ray.runAd
