chrome-devtools-mcp

chrome-devtools-mcp is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from leecyno1/boutique-skills. It costs 67 tokens per session (1,353 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A browser-control and debugging server for Chrome, using Puppeteer and Chrome’s developer tools connection. It can navigate pages, interact with forms, capture screenshots, inspect network requests, and read console output.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to test websites, fill forms, emulate devices, inspect network or console errors, capture page states, and record performance traces.
Why use it?
It lets a coding agent reproduce browser tasks and investigate web-page problems in a real browser. This reduces manual checking during UI, performance, and automation work.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

chrome-devtools-mcp 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 9d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/setup_chrome_mcp.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

🌐 Chrome DevTools MCP

Google's official Chrome DevTools MCP server — gives AI agents full control of a live Chrome browser via Puppeteer and the Chrome DevTools Protocol.

Features

  • Input automation — click, drag, fill forms, hover, press keys, upload files, handle dialogs
  • Navigation — open/close/switch pages, wait for elements/network idle
  • Screenshots & snapshots — capture page state visually and as DOM
  • Performance traces — record and analyze Chrome performance traces with insights
  • Network inspection — list/inspect network requests and responses
  • Console debugging — read console messages with source-mapped stack traces
  • Device emulation — emulate mobile devices, resize viewport
  • Form automation — fill multiple form fields at once

Requirements

  • Node.js v20.19+ (already available in OpenClaw)
  • Chrome/Chromium browser

Quick Start

Install & verify

npx -y chrome-devtools-mcp@latest --help

Start the MCP server

# Standard (launches Chrome automatically)
npx -y chrome-devtools-mcp@latest

# Headless mode (for servers)
npx -y chrome-devtools-mcp@latest --headless

# Connect to existing Chrome (must be started with --remote-debugging-port=9222)
npx -y chrome-devtools-mcp@latest --browser-url=http://127.0.0.1:9222

# Disable telemetry
npx -y chrome-devtools-mcp@latest --no-usage-statistics --no-performance-crux

OpenClaw MCP Integration

Add to your openclaw.json under MCP servers:

{
  "mcp": {
    "servers": {
      "chrome-devtools": {
        "command": "npx",
        "args": ["-y", "chrome-devtools-mcp@latest", "--headless", "--no-usage-statistics"]
      }
    }
  }
}

Or use the setup script:

python3 {baseDir}/scripts/setup_chrome_mcp.py setup
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/setup_chrome_mcp.py status
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/setup_chrome_mcp.py test

Tool Reference

drag Drag element onto another from_uid, to_uid
fill Type text into input/textarea/select uid, value
fill_form Fill multiple form elements at once elements[]
handle_dialog Accept/dismiss browser dialogs action (accept/dismiss)

What ships with it

4 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
