Browser MCP / CDP direct

Agentyc

Deterministic, MCP-first browser automation for coding agents. Launch or attach to Chrome over CDP, inspect compact page state with stable refs, extract structured content, and debug real browser traffic without an LLM in the critical path.

Why it exists

Read the page without brute-force DOM dumps

Use compact state snapshots, `since_hash` polling, and stable refs so the agent can stay oriented without paying to re-read the whole page.

Act deterministically in the real browser

Click, type, drag, upload, wait, and switch tabs through a direct CDP runtime built for coding agents rather than a custom agent loop.

Debug the live app from the same tool surface

Wait for requests, inspect responses, export debug bundles, replay calls, and apply narrow network mocks without leaving the browser session.

Core capabilities

Stable browser state

Read compact page state with stable refs that survive re-renders instead of targeting brittle selectors or dumping the full DOM every turn.

Deterministic extraction

Extract tables, lists, forms, links, images, and key-value panels without an LLM fallback and without an API key in the default runtime path.

CDP-native observability

Inspect console logs, network requests, request bodies, traces, mocks, and throttling controls directly from the same MCP browser surface.

Parallel browser collaboration

Attach multiple runtimes to one browser profile so subagents keep dedicated tabs while still sharing auth, cookies, and local storage.

What you can ask

browser_get_state(mode="min")

Read compact browser state with stable element refs and token-aware compaction.

browser_click(ref="e123")

Interact using stable refs instead of reconstructing selectors after every render.

browser_extract_content(query="table rows")

Extract structured content through deterministic routes with no LLM fallback.

browser_wait_for_response(url_substring="/api", status=200)

Synchronize against real network activity instead of relying only on generic idle waits.

browser_export_debug_bundle(include_screenshot=true)

Bundle state, logs, network, trace summary, and a screenshot into one debugging artifact.

browser_new_tab(url="https://example.com")

Open an additional working surface when one runtime needs more than its owned collaboration tab.

Tool surface

66 MCP tools for real browser work

Navigation, interaction, extraction, frames, storage, tabs, network control, traces, debug bundles, and session lifecycle all live in one browser runtime.

Runtime model

CDP direct, no Playwright dependency in the browser path

Agentyc speaks to Chrome and Chromium over CDP and keeps the public MCP contract deterministic and compact.

Token efficiency

Smaller browser payloads by default

Compact state modes, `since_hash` polling, and screenshot optimization keep the browser useful to agents without flooding the context window.
