## Playwright MCP

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides browser automation capabilities using [Playwright](https://playwright.dev). This server enables LLMs to interact with web pages through structured accessibility snapshots, bypassing the need for screenshots or visually-tuned models.

### Key Features

- **Fast and lightweight**. Uses Playwright's accessibility tree, not pixel-based input.
- **LLM-friendly**. No vision models needed, operates purely on structured data.
- **Deterministic tool application**. Avoids ambiguity common with screenshot-based approaches.

### Requirements
- Node.js 18 or newer
- VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Desktop, Goose or any other MCP client

<!--
// Generate using:
node utils/generate-links.js
-->

### Getting started

First, install the Playwright MCP server with your client.

**Standard config** works in most of the tools:

```js
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "playwright": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "@playwright/mcp@latest"
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

### User profile

You can run Playwright MCP with persistent profile like a regular browser (default), or in the isolated contexts for the testing sessions.

**Persistent profile**

All the logged in information will be stored in the persistent profile, you can delete it between sessions if you'd like to clear the offline state.
Persistent profile is located at the following locations and you can override it with the `--user-data-dir` argument.

```bash
# Windows
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\ms-playwright\mcp-{channel}-profile

# macOS
- ~/Library/Caches/ms-playwright/mcp-{channel}-profile

# Linux
- ~/.cache/ms-playwright/mcp-{channel}-profile
```

**Isolated**

In the isolated mode, each session is started in the isolated profile. Every time you ask MCP to close the browser,
the session is closed and all the storage state for this session is lost. You can provide initial storage state
to the browser via the config's `contextOptions` or via the `--storage-state` argument. Learn more about the storage
state [here](https://playwright.dev/docs/auth).

```js
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "playwright": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "@playwright/mcp@latest",
        "--isolated",
        "--storage-state={path/to/storage.json}"
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

### Configuration file

The Playwright MCP server can be configured using a JSON configuration file. You can specify the configuration file
using the `--config` command line option:

```bash
npx @playwright/mcp@latest --config path/to/config.json
```

<details>
<summary>Configuration file schema</summary>

```typescript
{
  // Browser configuration
  browser?: {
    // Browser type to use (chromium, firefox, or webkit)
    browserName?: 'chromium' | 'firefox' | 'webkit';

}
```
</details>

### Centralized Artifact Storage

The Playwright MCP server supports centralized artifact storage for organizing all generated files (screenshots, videos, and PDFs) in session-specific directories with comprehensive logging.

#### Configuration

**Command Line Option:**
```bash
npx @playwright/mcp@latest --artifact-dir /path/to/artifacts
```

**Environment Variable:**
```bash
export PLAYWRIGHT_MCP_ARTIFACT_DIR="/path/to/artifacts"
npx @playwright/mcp@latest
```

**MCP Client Configuration:**
```js
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "playwright": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "@playwright/mcp@latest",
        "--artifact-dir",
        "./browser-artifacts"
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

#### Features

When artifact storage is enabled, the server provides:

- **Session Isolation**: Each MCP session gets its own subdirectory
- **Organized Storage**: All artifacts saved to `{artifact-dir}/{session-id}/`
- **Tool Call Logging**: Complete audit trail in `tool-calls.json`
- **Automatic Organization**: Videos saved to `videos/` subdirectory

#### Directory Structure

```
browser-artifacts/
└── mcp-session-abc123/
    ├── tool-calls.json              # Complete log of all tool calls
    ├── page-2024-01-15T10-30-00.png # Screenshots
    ├── document.pdf                 # Generated PDFs
    └── videos/
        └── session-recording.webm   # Video recordings
```

#### Tool Call Log Format

The `tool-calls.json` file contains detailed information about each operation:

```json
[
  {
    "timestamp": "2024-01-15T10:30:00.000Z",
    "toolName": "browser_take_screenshot",
    "parameters": {
      "filename": "login-page.png"
    },
    "result": "success",
    "artifactPath": "login-page.png"
  },
  {
    "timestamp": "2024-01-15T10:31:15.000Z", 
    "toolName": "browser_start_recording",
    "parameters": {
      "filename": "user-journey"
    },
    "result": "success"
  }
]
```

#### Per-Session Control

You can dynamically enable, disable, or configure artifact storage during a session using the `browser_configure_artifacts` tool:

**Check Current Status:**
```
browser_configure_artifacts
```

**Enable Artifact Storage:**
```json
{
  "enabled": true,
  "directory": "./my-artifacts"
}
```

**Disable Artifact Storage:**
```json
{
  "enabled": false
}
```

**Custom Session ID:**
```json
{
  "enabled": true,
  "sessionId": "my-custom-session"
}
```

#### Compatibility

- **Backward Compatible**: When `--artifact-dir` is not specified, all tools work exactly as before
- **Dynamic Control**: Artifact storage can be enabled/disabled per session without server restart
- **Fallback Behavior**: If artifact storage fails, tools fall back to default output directory
- **No Breaking Changes**: Existing configurations continue to work unchanged

### Standalone MCP server

When running headed browser on system w/o display or from worker processes of the IDEs,
run the MCP server from environment with the DISPLAY and pass the `--port` flag to enable HTTP transport.

```bash
npx @playwright/mcp@latest --port 8931
```

And then in MCP client config, set the `url` to the HTTP endpoint:

```js
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "playwright": {
      "url": "http://localhost:8931/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

<details>
<summary><b>Docker</b></summary>

**NOTE:** The Docker implementation only supports headless chromium at the moment.

```js
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "playwright": {
      "command": "docker",
      "args": ["run", "-i", "--rm", "--init", "--pull=always", "mcr.microsoft.com/playwright/mcp"]
    }
  }
}
```

You can build the Docker image yourself.

```
docker build -t mcr.microsoft.com/playwright/mcp .
```

<details>
<summary><b>Programmatic usage</b></summary>
