This Cloudflare Playwright MCP Server lets an AI assistant control a browser to perform web automation tasks such as navigating pages, typing, clicking, and taking screenshots. It provides a ready-made MCP endpoint that you can connect to from various MCP clients to run browser actions through Playwright.

How to use

Connect to the MCP server from your preferred MCP client (for example, Cloudflare AI Playground, Claude Desktop, or VS Code with Copilot). Use the URL that points to the server's SSE endpoint and enable the connection. Once connected, you can issue browser-related actions as tools, such as navigating to pages, typing into fields, clicking elements, and taking screenshots. For best results, keep requests simple and focused on a single action at a time.

How to install

Prerequisites you need before installation.

Install dependencies and deploy to Cloudflare Workers.
