What is Steel MCP Server?

Steel MCP Server is a bridge between AI models and web browsers. It allows AI assistants like Claude to perform web tasks such as clicking buttons, filling forms, and extracting information through visual recognition of webpage elements.

How does it work?

The server adds numbered labels to interactive webpage elements. Users reference these numbers when giving instructions. Behind the scenes, it uses Puppeteer for browser automation and Steel for session management.

When should I use it?

Perfect for automating repetitive web tasks, extracting data from websites without APIs, or when you need AI assistance with web navigation.

Key Features

Web NavigationVisit any URL or perform Google searches directly through simple commands
Element InteractionClick buttons and type into forms using numbered element labels
Visual FeedbackSee annotated screenshots with highlighted interactive elements
Cloud & Local ModesRun with Steel's cloud service or self-host for complete control

Pros and Cons

Advantages
No coding required for basic web automation
Visual interface makes it easy to identify elements
Works with both cloud and self-hosted solutions
Seamless integration with Claude AI
Limitations
Performance may slow down after 15 - 20 actions
Requires manual session cleanup currently
Limited to visible viewport elements
Dynamic content may require explicit wait commands
