Tools & Capabilities Breakdown

Leapfrog Tools (37)

session_create
Create a new isolated browser session with its own cookies and state. Returns a short session ID (e.g. s_k3m7x1) to pass to all other tools. Each session is a separate BrowserContext — no cookie leakage between sessions. Pool limit: 15 concurrent sessions. Sessions auto-expire after 30 minutes of inactivity. Use keep-alive pattern (periodic navigate or snapshot) for long-running sessions.
session_create_batch
Create multiple isolated browser sessions concurrently — 5-10x faster than sequential session_create calls. Optionally navigate each to a URL. Returns all session IDs. A single reflow positions all windows into a unified grid after all sessions are created.
session_list
List all active browser sessions with their URLs and idle times.
session_destroy
Close and clean up a browser session. Frees a pool slot.
session_save_profile

Save a session's cookies and auth state to disk. Use this after logging in to a site so future sessions can restore that login. Pass the returned profile path to session_create's profilePath to reuse it.
session_list_profiles
List all saved authentication profiles.
navigate
Navigate to a URL and return a compact accessibility snapshot with @eN refs. Refs like @e1, @e2 can be passed directly to the 'act' tool — no CSS selectors needed. Snapshots are ~200-500 tokens (vs 15,000 with Playwright MCP).
snapshot
Re-snapshot the current page for fresh @eN refs. Use after 'act' when you need to re-orient, or scope to a region with 'selector'. Use 'selector' to dramatically reduce tokens (e.g. 'form', '#results').
diff
Compare the current page state against the last snapshot for this session. Returns only what changed (additions, removals, changes) — massive token savings vs a full re-snapshot. Use after 'act' instead of 'snapshot' when you just need to see what changed. On first call (no previous snapshot), returns the full snapshot with a note. Use 'selector' to scope the diff to a page region.
act
Perform a browser interaction: click, fill, type, check, select, press key, scroll, hover, mousemove, drag, upload, resize, back, forward. Use @eN refs from navigate/snapshot as the target (e.g. '@e2'). CSS selectors also work. drag: requires target (source) and target2 (destination). upload: requires target (file input) and filePaths. resize: requires width and height (no target needed). holdDuration: for click, holds mouse down for N ms (long-press). Returns a fresh snapshot if the page navigated, or just the action result if it didn't.
screenshot
Capture a screenshot of the current page. Returns the image inline as base64. Optionally save to disk with savePath.
extract
Extract data from the page without a full snapshot. Types: text (visible text), html (markup), title, url, js (evaluate JavaScript). Use target with @eN or CSS selector for element-specific extraction.
