What are the prerequisites to run Steel MCP Server?

You need Git, Node.js, and Claude Desktop installed. For local mode, you also need the Steel Docker image running locally.

How do I get a Steel API key?

You can obtain one from the Steel dashboard at https://app.steel.dev/settings/api-keys.

It provides navigate, search, click, type, scroll_down, scroll_up, go_back, wait, and save_unmarked_screenshot tools, all driven by numbered labels on interactive elements.
