playwright

playwright is an MCP server for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, OpenCode from langbot-app/LangBot. Its token cost is not measured, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A browser-control tool that lets the coding agent open web pages, click buttons, enter text, take screenshots, and read page structure. It uses Playwright, a tool for automating real web browsers.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps test websites, inspect pages, fill out forms, reproduce browser bugs, and check how a user-facing interface behaves.
Why use it?
It removes the need to describe browser steps manually or rely only on code-level guesses about what a page does.

MCP server for Claude CodeCodexCursorGemini CLIOpenCode

Written for no agent in particular: it speaks MCP, so any client can run it. Also seen: listed in a Claude config.

One of 5 entries in .mcp.json upstream. Installing this one merges just its entry into your config; the other 4 are separate, each on its own page.

Good fit It helps test websites, inspect pages, fill out forms, reproduce browser bugs, and check how a user-facing interface behaves.

About the project

LangBot is an open-source platform for connecting language models to instant-messaging services so developers can build chatbots that converse, use tools, and execute tasks. It supports bot management, knowledge bases, plugins, and multiple chat platforms, and the catalogue entries provide skills, MCP tools, and instructions for working with it.

Install

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Clone the repo
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/langbot-app/LangBot

Made for: Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, OpenCode.

Security

Grade A, and why

playwright scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
