FAQ from Blueprint MCP for Chrome

What runtimes or dependencies does Blueprint MCP for Chrome require?

It requires Node.js to run the MCP server and a real Chrome browser with the Blueprint extension installed.

How does Blueprint MCP for Chrome handle data privacy?

In free local mode, all communication stays on your machine via a localhost WebSocket. There is zero telemetry, tracking, or analytics, and the server works completely offline.

Do I need any authentication to use Blueprint MCP for Chrome?

No account is needed for the free local tier. The Pro tier requires a subscription for Cloud Relay but no additional authentication for local use.
