Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Browserless (Playwright Cloud) MCP to Cursor
Create your Vinkius account to connect Browserless (Playwright Cloud) to Cursor and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Live Web Data for Cursor
Call `get_html_content` to pull fresh site structure directly into your editor's context. Your AI writes code based on the current page markup. Use `scrape_with_proxy` to route requests through specific locations. It helps you verify how your site behaves in different regions.
Automated Testing in Cursor
Run `get_screenshot` to visually verify UI changes during your dev cycle. Cursor displays the result so you can catch regressions fast. Use `scrape_with_wait` to confirm elements exist before your agent writes assertions. It stops the AI from hallucinating about missing selectors.
Advanced DOM Manipulation
Execute `scrape_with_js` to click buttons or toggle states before grabbing content. This lets the AI test complex interactions programmatically. Deploy `run_custom_function` for deep integration with remote browser state. You get precise control over the execution environment.
