// justbrowse mcp

Chrome without
the tug-of-war.

Browser automation in your real Chrome session, with private tabs per MCP client and screenshots that do not steal focus.

// setup

Three steps.

  1. 01

    Build it

    git clone https://github.com/JustSuperHuman/mcp-chrome-but-good.git
    cd mcp-chrome-but-good
    pnpm install
    pnpm --filter chrome-mcp-shared build
    pnpm --filter mcp-chrome-bridge build
    pnpm --filter chrome-mcp-server build
    pnpm --filter mcp-chrome-bridge register:dev
  2. 02

    Load Chrome

    Open chrome://extensions, enable Developer mode, chooseLoad unpacked, and select:

    app/chrome-extension/.output/chrome-mv3
  3. 03

    Add the MCP endpoint

    {
      "mcpServers": {
        "justbrowse": {
          "type": "streamableHttp",
          "url": "http://127.0.0.1:12306/mcp"
        }
      }
    }

// use it

Ask normally.

  • “Open these three pages and screenshot each one.”
  • “Capture the full page without switching my current tab.”
  • “Click the sign-in button in your own browser tab.”

Each MCP connection receives its own tab lease. Closing the connection releases the lease; it does not close or hijack your working tabs.
