Playguard Overview

playguard MCP server combines bundled Playwright MCP with optional Figma, Chrome DevTools, Shopify Dev, and Context7 upstreams behind one MCP connection. It compacts browser and documentation responses, caches selected results, recovers crashed browser or upstream processes, and records token savings. Reach for it when an agent needs several development tools without separate client entries or when large browser snapshots are consuming context. Its own tools add an axe-core accessibility audit and a Framelink-only Figma-versus-DOM design comparison.

Primary Use Cases for Playguard:
  • Run browser automation, Figma, DevTools, and documentation tools through one client entry
  • Reduce token usage from large Playwright accessibility snapshots
  • Recover browser sessions after crashes without exposing the failure to the agent
  • Audit a live Playwright page for accessibility issues
