Next Devtools MCP Overview

The vercel/next-devtools-mcp MCP server connects coding agents to running Next.js development servers. It discovers Next.js 16+ servers and proxies their built-in `/_next/mcp` endpoint for errors, routes, logs, metadata, and Server Actions. It also points agents to version-matched documentation in the installed Next.js package and provides setup guidance for the `agent-browser` CLI. Reach for it when an agent needs live development-state information from a Next.js application rather than only static project files.
