Jev Ra Overview

jev-ra connects MCP clients and coding agents to Chrome over the DevTools Protocol for browser automation. It provides goal-oriented runs, web search, page observation and extraction, plus individual actions such as clicking, typing, selecting, scrolling and taking screenshots. The server keeps a shared browser session and can pause when human input is needed, allowing a later run to resume. Reach for it when an agent needs to navigate real web pages while retaining control over text supplied to forms.

Primary Use Cases for Jev Ra:
  • Automate searches across web pages and rank relevant results
  • Navigate sites and complete forms with supplied field values
  • Extract page text, links, tables and main content
  • Inspect and interact with a persistent Chrome profile
