What is Browser CTL MCP Server?

Browser CTL is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that uses Playwright technology to enable AI agents to control and operate the Chrome browser like humans. Through simple API calls, AI can perform browser operations such as accessing web pages, executing JavaScript code, and taking screenshots.

How to use Browser CTL?

After installation, the server can be started through a simple command line. AI agents can communicate with the server through the SSE (Server-Sent Events) protocol and send instructions to control browser behavior.

Applicable scenarios

Suitable for AI application scenarios that require automated browser operations, such as web data scraping, automated testing, and web content monitoring. Particularly suitable for AI agents that require real-time browser interaction.

Main features

Execute JavaScript
Execute any JavaScript code in the browser in real-time and return the result
Web page navigation
Control the browser to access a specified URL
Web page screenshot
Capture the current browser page and return a base64-encoded image
Browser control
Open/close the browser instance
Time control
Set the browser waiting time to simulate the rhythm of human operations
Advantages
Based on Playwright technology, supporting all functions of modern browsers
Lightweight Python implementation, easy to deploy
Real-time communication through the SSE protocol
Providing complete browser automation capabilities
Limitations
Currently only supports the Chrome browser
Requires installation of Playwright dependencies
The SSE protocol may not be suitable for all application scenarios

How to use

Install dependencies
First, you need to install Python and project dependencies
Install the browser
Download the browser binary files required by Playwright
Start the server
Run the main program to start the MCP server
Connect and use
Connect to the server endpoint through the SSE protocol for interaction

Usage examples

Web page screenshot
Let the AI agent get a screenshot of a specified web page
Data scraping
Extract specific data from a dynamic web page
Form auto-filling
Automatically fill in and submit a web form
