MCP Server Playwright is a browser automation server. It uses Playwright to interact with web pages inside a real browser. This allows for tasks like capturing screenshots and running JavaScript.
To use it, install the server via npx or mcp-get. After installation, follow the setup instructions to configure and start automating browser tasks.
Key features include full browser automation, capturing screenshots of entire pages or specific elements, and comprehensive page interaction like navigation and form filling. It also monitors browser console logs and can execute JavaScript within the browser context.
Common use cases are automating routine web interactions and testing, taking automated screenshots for monitoring, and performing complex web-based workflows.
It supports both Windows and macOS. To customize browser behavior, adjust the Playwright server settings in the Claude configuration file generated during setup. Comprehensive documentation is available in the project's GitHub repository.
