chrome-devtools-mcp shipped an update

Chrome-devtools-mcp, an open-source TypeScript project with 47k GitHub stars, shipped an update in July 2026 that lets coding agents like Antigravity, Claude, Cursor, or Copilot control and inspect a live Chrome browser via the Model-Context-Protocol (MCP). The tool exposes browser content to MCP clients for debugging and performance analysis, officially supporting Google Chrome and Chrome for Testing only.

Chrome DevTools for coding agents

About chrome-devtools-mcp #

Chrome DevTools for agents (chrome-devtools-mcp) lets your coding agent (such as Antigravity, Claude, Cursor or Copilot) control and inspect a live Chrome browser. It acts as a Model-Context-Protocol (MCP) server, giving your AI coding assistant access to the full power of Chrome DevTools for reliable automation, in-depth debugging, and performance analysis. A CLI is also provided for use without MCP.

chrome-devtools-mcp exposes content of the browser instance to the MCP clients allowing them to inspect, debug, and modify any data in the browser or DevTools. Avoid sharing sensitive or personal information that you don't want to share with MCP clients.

chrome-devtools-mcp officially supports Google Chrome and Chrome for Testing only. Other Chromium-based browsers may work, but this is not guaranteed, and you may encounter unexpected behavior. Use at your own discretion. We are committed to providing fixes and support for the latest version of Extended Stable Chrome.

chrome-devtools-mcp is an open-source project written primarily in TypeScript, with 47k stars on GitHub. It was last updated in July 2026.
