MCP Server Released That Controls Real Browser Sessions

·2026.07.25 01:16

Key point

An MCP server has been released that helps AI agents control a browser by leveraging the user's actual Chrome session and cookies.

Details

Browser Bridge has been released to enable AI agents such as Claude Code CLI or Codex to operate within a user's actual browser session (including cookies, SSO, and 2FA).

This tool consists of a local MCP (Model Context Protocol) server and a Chrome extension, and provides the following core features:

  • Session persistence: Inherits the user's existing profile and authentication state as-is, without requiring separate re-login
  • 63 tools provided: Includes browsing, DevTools-level network capture, a web security toolkit, and session recording functionality
  • Session recording: Ability to export webpage actions as HTML replay or MP4 files
  • Security and installation: Operates as localhost-only, uses token authentication, and is distributed under the MIT license

Users can connect it with a single claude mcp add command, allowing them to instruct AI agents to directly perform tasks such as summarizing notifications, capturing API traffic, and comparing permissions.
