Demo
Stealth Browser MCP passing a Cloudflare challenge, cloning UI elements, and inspecting network traffic through AI chat commands.
Features
- Anti-bot resistance - Has passed Cloudflare and Queue-It style challenges in testing; results vary by site, region, browser version, and detector version.
- 98 tools across 11 sections - From basic navigation to advanced CDP function execution.
- Modular loading - Run the full 98-tool surface or a minimal 21-tool core; disable sections you do not need.
- Pixel-accurate element cloning - Extract complete elements with CSS, DOM structure, events, animations, and assets via CDP.
- Network inspection - Inspect requests, responses, headers, payloads, and captured bodies through your AI agent.
- Dynamic hook system - Restricted Python hooks can intercept, block, redirect, fulfill, or modify request/response flows.
- CDP execution - Run JavaScript, direct CDP commands, and pre-document scripts through trusted local MCP clients.
- Instant text input - Paste large content via CDP, type with human-like keystrokes, or press real keys with trusted CDP key events.
- Cross-platform - Windows, macOS, Linux, Docker, and CI environments with automatic browser/platform detection.
- Browser support - Chrome, Chromium, and Microsoft Edge with automatic executable discovery.
- Clean MCP integration - Works through standard MCP clients without custom brokers.
Quickstart
1. Clone and install
Requires Python 3.10+ and Chrome, Chromium, or Microsoft Edge.
git clone https://github.com/vibheksoni/stealth-browser-mcp.git
cd stealth-browser-mcp
python -m venv venv
# Windows
venv\Scripts\activate
# macOS / Linux
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
2. Add to your MCP client
Claude Code CLI (recommended):
Windows:
claude mcp add-json stealth-browser-mcp "{\"type\":\"stdio\",\"command\":\"C:\\path\\to\\stealth-browser-mcp\\venv\\Scripts\\python.exe\",\"args\":[\"C:\\path\\to\\stealth-browser-mcp\\src\\server.py\"]}"
macOS / Linux:
claude mcp add-json stealth-browser-mcp '{
"type": "stdio",
"command": "/path/to/stealth-browser-mcp/venv/bin/python",
"args": ["/path/to/stealth-browser-mcp/src/server.py"]
}'
Replace the example path with your real clone path.
Manual JSON configuration (Claude Desktop, Cursor, etc.)
Windows (%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"stealth-browser-mcp": {
"command": "C:\\path\\to\\stealth-browser-mcp\\venv\\Scripts\\python.exe",
"args": ["C:\\path\\to\\stealth-browser-mcp\\src\\server.py"],
"env": {}
}
}
}
macOS / Linux (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"stealth-browser-mcp": {
"command": "/path/to/stealth-browser-mcp/venv/bin/python",
"args": ["/path/to/stealth-browser-mcp/src/server.py"],
"env": {}
}
}
}
Experimental FastMCP CLI install
These commands are provided for users who prefer FastMCP's installer. The stdio JSON setup above is the recommended path.
pip install fastmcp
fastmcp install claude-desktop src/server.py --with-requirements requirements.txt
fastmcp install claude-code src/server.py --with-requirements requirements.txt
fastmcp install cursor src/server.py --with-requirements requirements.txt
3. Test it
Restart your MCP client and ask your agent:
Use stealth-browser to navigate to https://example.com and take a screenshot.
