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

      Gives MCP-compatible AI agents an anti-detection browser toolset for navigating, interacting with, searching, and extracting content from websites, plus downloads, multi-tab workflows, and persistent sessions with cookies and saved profiles. It enables reliable automation of the web without getting blocked by running against a separate Camoufox-based browser server.

      Exposes a 47-tool browser automation surface to MCP clients, enabling AI agents to navigate, interact with, observe, and extract content from web pages across multi-tab sessions. Runs on Camoufox-based anti-detection behavior so agents can automate sites that block conventional headless browsers, with session persistence, cookie import, and stdio or HTTP transport.

      Connects MCP-compatible AI agents to an anti-detection browser server, providing 47 tools for navigation, interaction, observation, search, extraction, downloads, multi-tab and session workflows. Agents can drive real web pages, reuse saved profiles and cookies, and automate sites that would otherwise block automated access.
