Real Browser MCP Overview

The ofershap/real-browser-mcp MCP server connects an AI agent to the user's existing Chrome through a local MCP process, a Chrome extension, and a localhost WebSocket. It can work with active sessions, cookies, SSO, staging environments, and pages already open in the browser. Reach for it when an agent needs to verify or interact with a locally authenticated site rather than launch a clean headless browser. It is intended for interactive development workflows, not repeatable CI runs.

Primary Use Cases for Real Browser MCP:
  • Verify a code change in an already authenticated staging site
  • Inspect a bug in the Chrome tab you already opened
  • Interact with pages that require existing SSO or cookies
  • Check a web application from an IDE-local browser session
