mcp-server-playwright

The mcp-server-playwright project is an innovative initiative that leverages the Model Context Protocol (MCP) in conjunction with Playwright to control web browsers programmatically. This project aims to provide a seamless interface for AI-driven browser manipulation, allowing users to open, navigate, and close browser tabs through a set of defined MCP commands. By integrating Playwright, a powerful browser automation library, the project ensures robust and efficient browser interactions. This experimental setup is particularly useful for developers and researchers looking to explore AI-driven web automation and testing.

Features

• Open a browser with a specified URL using the open-browser command.
• Close a designated page in the current browser with close-page.
• Navigate to a specified URL using navigate-to-page.
• Open a new tab with a specified URL using open-new-page.
• Retrieve the readability content of the current page with get-page-content.
