@ -22,20 +22,32 @@ v1.2.0 is out! Here's a quick breakdown of the update:
- Improved networking between BrowserTools server, extension and MCP server with host/port auto-discovery, auto-reconnect, and graceful shutdown mechanisms
- Added ability to more easily exit out of the Browser Tools server with Ctrl+C
## Quickstart Guide
Please make sure to update the version in your IDE / MCP client as so:
`npx @agentdeskai/browser-tools-mcp@1.2.0`
There are three components to run this MCP tool:
Also make sure to download the latest version of the chrome extension here:
[v1.2.0 BrowserToolsMCP Chrome Extension](https://github.com/AgentDeskAI/browser-tools-mcp/releases/download/v1.2.0/BrowserTools-1.2.0-extension.zip)
1. Install our chrome extension from here: [v1.2.0 BrowserToolsMCP Chrome Extension](https://github.com/AgentDeskAI/browser-tools-mcp/releases/download/v1.2.0/BrowserTools-1.2.0-extension.zip)
2. Install the MCP server from this command within your IDE: `npx @agentdeskai/browser-tools-mcp@latest`
3. Open a new terminal and run this command: `npx @agentdeskai/browser-tools-server@latest`
From there you can run the local node server like so:
`npx @agentdeskai/browser-tools-server@1.2.0`
* Different IDEs have different configs but this command is generally a good starting point; please reference your IDEs docs for the proper config setup
Make sure to specify version 1.2.0 since NPX caching may prevent you from getting the latest version! You should only have to do this once for every update. After you do it once, you should be on the latest version.
IMPORTANT TIP - there are two servers you need to install. There's...
- browser-tools-server (local nodejs server that's a middleware for gathering logs)
and
- browser-tools-mcp (MCP server that you install into your IDE that communicates w/ the extension + browser-tools-server)
And once you've opened your chrome dev tools, logs should be getting sent to your server 🦾
`npx @agentdeskai/browser-tools-mcp@latest` is what you put into your IDE
`npx @agentdeskai/browser-tools-server@latest` is what you run in a new terminal window
After those three steps, open up your chrome dev tools and then the BrowserToolsMCP panel.
If you're still having issues try these steps:
- Quit / close down your browser. Not just the window but all of Chrome itself.
- Restart the local node server (browser-tools-server)
- Make sure you only have ONE instance of chrome dev tools panel open
After that, it should work but if it doesn't let me know and I can share some more steps to gather logs/info about the issue!
