Overview

What is browser-use-mcp-server?

An MCP server that enables AI agents to control web browsers using the browser-use library. It provides a bridge between AI assistants and browser automation, allowing agents to navigate, extract data, and perform actions on web pages.

How to use browser-use-mcp-server?

Install prerequisites: uv, playwright, and mcp-proxy. Set up a .env file with OPENAI_API_KEY (and optionally CHROME_PATH and PATIENT). Install dependencies with uv sync, pip install playwright, and playwright install. Run in SSE mode with uv run server --port 8000 or in stdio mode by building the package and running browser-use-mcp-server run server --port 8000 --stdio --proxy-port 9000. Docker is also supported.

Key features of browser-use-mcp-server

  • Browser automation controlled by AI agents
  • Dual transport: SSE and stdio protocols
  • Real-time VNC streaming to watch automation
  • Async task execution for browser operations

Use cases of browser-use-mcp-server

  • AI assistant navigating a website and returning top-ranked content
  • Automating form filling, searches, or data extraction via natural language
  • Debugging or monitoring web automation in real-time through VNC

Frequently asked questions

1

What prerequisites are needed?

You need `uv` (fast Python package manager), `playwright` (browser automation), and `mcp-proxy` (for stdio mode). Install them with the provided commands.

2

How do I configure the server for different MCP clients?

Configuration paths vary by client: for Cursor use `./.cursor/mcp.json`, for Windsurf `~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json`, and for Claude Desktop the path depends on OS (Mac or Windows).

3

How can I run browser-use-mcp-server with Docker?

Build the image with `docker build -t browser-use-mcp-server .` and run with `docker run --rm -p8000:8000 -p5900:5900 browser-use-mcp-server`. You can optionally set a custom VNC password via a mounted secret file.

4

What is the default VNC password and how do I watch the browser?

The default VNC password is `browser-use`. To watch, use a VNC viewer such as noVNC by cloning it and pointing to `localhost:5900`.

5

What transport modes are supported?

Both SSE (Server-Sent Events) and stdio modes are supported. SSE runs directly from source; stdio requires building and installing the package as a global tool.
