cdp-extended-mcp

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that exposes 5 powerful Chrome DevTools Protocol domains that are missing from existing tools:

  1. Fetch — Intercept & modify HTTP requests mid-flight (mock APIs, block tracking, inject headers)

  2. Emulation — Device simulation (iPhone/Pixel/iPad presets, geolocation, timezone, dark mode, vision deficiencies)

  3. Accessibility — A11y tree inspection & automated auditing (missing labels, alt text, ARIA compliance)

  4. Performance — Runtime metrics, CPU profiling, heap snapshots, Core Web Vitals

  5. CSS — Computed styles, matched rules, font inspection, coverage tracking, live modification

Quick Start

Install

npm install -g cdp-extended-mcp

Configure with Claude Code

Add to your Claude Code settings (~/.claude/settings.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cdp-extended": {
      "command": "cdp-extended-mcp"
    }
  }
}

Configure with Claude Desktop

Add to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cdp-extended": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["cdp-extended-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Usage

  1. Launch Chrome with debugging enabled:

    /Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome --remote-debugging-port=9222
  2. Use discover_targets to find available pages

  3. Use connect_cdp with the WebSocket URL

  4. Use any of the 38 tools!

Works great alongside cdp-tools

This server is designed to complement the existing cdp-tools MCP server. Use cdp-tools for navigation, clicking, screenshots, and breakpoints. Use cdp-extended for the 5 domains cdp-tools doesn't cover.

Use Cases

  • API Mocking: Intercept fetch requests and return mock data — no backend needed

  • Mobile Testing: Emulate any device with one command

  • A11y Auditing: Find missing labels, alt text, and ARIA issues automatically

  • Performance Profiling: Get Core Web Vitals, CPU hotspots, and memory leaks

  • CSS Debugging: See exactly which rules apply, find unused CSS, check font rendering

  • i18n Testing: Switch timezone, locale, and language without system changes

  • Vision Accessibility: Test how your site looks with color blindness
