MCP服务器赋予AI助手控制网页浏览器的能力。 这将浏览器作为MCP服务器包裹,使Claude(或任何MCP客户端)能够自动化真实浏览器——浏览页面、填写表单、点击按钮、提取数据等。 浏览器自动化任务需要30-120+秒。标准MCP标准传输在长时间运行操作时存在超时问题——连接在任务中途中断。它作为一个持久守护进程运行,无论时长如何都能可靠地处理请求。 安装为 Claude Code 插件以实现自动设置: 插件自动:- 首次运行时安装 Playwright 浏览器 - Claude 代码启动时启动 HTTP 守护进程 - 用 Claude 注册 MCP 服务器 (浏览器代理需要一个大型语言模型来决定动作): 就是这样!Claude现在可以使用浏览器自动化工具。 对于其他MCP客户端或独立用途:

这是什么?
这将浏览器作为MCP服务器包裹,使Claude(或任何MCP客户端)能够自动化真实浏览器——浏览页面、填写表单、点击按钮、提取数据等。
为什么是 HTTP 而不是 stdio?
浏览器自动化任务需要30-120+秒。标准MCP的标准传输在长时间运行操作时存在超时问题——连接在任务中途中断。**HTTP传输通过作为持久守护进程运行,无论时长如何都能可靠地处理请求,从而解决了这个问题。
安装
Claude 代码插件(推荐)
安装为 Claude Code 插件以实现自动设置:
插件会自动:
- 首次运行时安装Playwright浏览器
- 当 Claude Code 启动时启动 HTTP 守护进程
- 向 Claude 注册 MCP 服务器
设置你的API密钥(浏览器代理需要LLM来决定操作):
就是这样!Claude现在可以使用浏览器自动化工具。

What is this?
This wraps browser-use as an MCP server, letting Claude (or any MCP client) automate a real browser—navigate pages, fill forms, click buttons, extract data, and more.
Why HTTP instead of stdio?
Browser automation tasks take 30-120+ seconds. The standard MCP stdio transport has timeout issues with long-running operations—connections drop mid-task. HTTP transport solves this by running as a persistent daemon that handles requests reliably regardless of duration.
Installation
Claude Code Plugin (Recommended)
Install as a Claude Code plugin for automatic setup:
# Install the plugin
/plugin install browser-use/mcp-browser-use
The plugin automatically:
- Installs Playwright browsers on first run
- Starts the HTTP daemon when Claude Code starts
- Registers the MCP server with Claude
Set your API key (the browser agent needs an LLM to decide actions):
# Set API key (environment variable - recommended)
export GEMINI_API_KEY=your-key-here
# Or use config file
mcp-server-browser-use config set -k llm.api_key -v your-key-here
That’s it! Claude can now use browser automation tools.
Manual Installation
For other MCP clients or standalone use:
# Clone and install
git clone https://github.com/Saik0s/mcp-browser-use.git
cd mcp-server-browser-use
uv sync
# Install browser
uv run playwright install chromium
# Start the server
uv run mcp-server-browser-use server
Add to Claude Desktop (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"browser-use": {
"type": "streamable-http",
"url": "http://localhost:8383/mcp"
}
}
}
For MCP clients that don’t support HTTP transport, use mcp-remote as a proxy:
{
"mcpServers": {
"browser-use": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["mcp-remote", "http://localhost:8383/mcp"]
}
}
}
Web UI
Access the task viewer at http://localhost:8383 when the daemon is running.
Features:
- Real-time task list with status and progress
- Task details with execution logs
- Server health status and uptime
- Running tasks monitoring
The web UI provides visibility into browser automation tasks without requiring CLI commands.
