Cws MCP Overview

The mikusnuz/cws-mcp MCP server manages existing Chrome Web Store extensions through API calls and Playwright dashboard automation. It can upload ZIP files, publish releases, inspect status, cancel submissions, control staged rollout percentages, and read or update listing metadata. OAuth2 credentials authenticate the Chrome Web Store API, while a persistent browser profile supports dashboard-based metadata updates. Reach for it when an agent needs to operate an established Chrome Web Store listing without manually navigating the publisher console.
