Allow LLMs to control a browser with Browserbase and Stagehand
This MCP server connects Claude and other LLM clients to cloud-based browser automation by combining Browserbase (a hosted Chromium environment) with Stagehand, a browser control library built on Playwright. It exposes six tools: `start` and `end` to manage browser sessions, `navigate` to load URLs, `act` to perform page interactions described in plain text, `observe` to identify actionable elements, and `extract` to pull structured data from pages. The server connects to any MCP-compatible client, including Claude Desktop, via either STDIO for self-hosted setups or the hosted SHTTP endpoint at mcp.browserbase.com. A notable detail is that the hosted version supplies its own Gemini API access, which Stagehand's benchmarks rank as the top-performing model for browser tasks, reducing setup friction for new users. Developers automating web workflows, researchers scraping structured data, and QA engineers running AI-driven browser tests are the primary beneficiaries.
