About Auto Browser
Auto Browser is an open-source, MCP-native browser control plane by LvcidPsyche. It gives LLM agents a real, shared Playwright browser session with a human in the loop — so an agent can drive the browser, but a person can take over via noVNC when a workflow gets brittle (logins, CAPTCHAs, weird modals).
It targets authorized workflows: internal dashboards, admin tools, operator-assisted QA, and "log in once, reuse later" account automation. The project is explicit that it is not built for stealth scraping, CAPTCHA solving, or anti-bot evasion.
What it provides
- MCP-native — exposes the browser as MCP tools over HTTP and stdio, usable from Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any MCP client
- Real browser sessions — Playwright-backed, with screenshots, DOM summaries, OCR excerpts, tab control, downloads, network inspection
- Human takeover — live noVNC view of the same session, so an operator can step in mid-flow
- Reusable auth profiles — log in once manually, save the session, reopen new sessions already authenticated
- Safety rails — approval gates, operator identity headers, audit events, PII scrubbing, "Witness" receipts, compliance protection profiles
- Local-first — full stack runs on your machine via Docker Compose (or one-click in GitHub Codespaces)
- REST API alongside MCP, for curl-first or non-agent integrations
Quickstart
git clone https://github.com/LvcidPsyche/auto-browser.git cd auto-browser docker compose up --build
Then open:
- API docs:
http://127.0.0.1:8000/docs - Operator dashboard:
http://127.0.0.1:8000/dashboard - Visual takeover (noVNC):
http://127.0.0.1:6080/vnc.html?autoconnect=true&resize=scale
All ports bind to 127.0.0.1 by default.
