What is the Browserbase MCP Server?
Connect your AI agent to Browserbase — the serverless platform for running headless cloud browsers at scale.
What you can do
- Create Sessions — Spin up isolated Chromium browser sessions in the cloud. Each session returns a CDP (Chrome DevTools Protocol) WebSocket URL for connecting Playwright, Puppeteer, or Selenium
- List Sessions — Monitor all active, completed, or errored browser sessions across your account
- Get Session Details — Check status, connection URLs, pages visited, and duration of any session
- Stop Sessions — Terminate running sessions to free resources
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Browserbase API key (1 free browser hour included)
- Your agent can now launch and control real browsers in the cloud
Who is this for?
- AI Agent Developers — give agents a real browser for complex interactions (login, click, fill forms, navigate SPAs)
- QA Automation — run browser-based tests at scale without infrastructure
- Web Scraping — access content that requires JavaScript execution, authentication, or complex navigation
Built-in capabilities (4)
The session provides a connectUrl (CDP WebSocket) that can be used with Playwright, Puppeteer, or Selenium to control the browser programmatically. Default timeout is 300 seconds. Create a new cloud browser session. Returns a CDP WebSocket URL for connecting automation frameworks like Playwright or Puppeteer
Useful for monitoring active sessions. Get details of a specific browser session by its ID
Filter by status: RUNNING, COMPLETED, ERROR. List all active browser sessions in your Browserbase account
Any unsaved state in the browser is lost. Stop a running browser session by its ID

Frequently asked questions
How is Browserbase different from Firecrawl?
Firecrawl is optimized for content extraction — it scrapes pages and returns clean data. Browserbase provides a full browser environment for interactive automation — your agent can click buttons, fill forms, log into websites, scroll, and navigate complex single-page applications (SPAs). Browserbase gives you a real browser, Firecrawl gives you the text from a page.
Which automation frameworks are supported?
Browserbase sessions expose a CDP (Chrome DevTools Protocol) WebSocket URL, which is compatible with all major browser automation frameworks: Playwright, Puppeteer, Selenium WebDriver, and any tool that supports CDP connections. Simply point your framework at the connectUrl returned when creating a session.
What does the free tier include?
The free tier includes 1 browser hour, 1 concurrent browser session, and 7 days of data retention. No credit card required. For production workloads, paid plans start at $20/month (Developer) with more browser hours and concurrent sessions.
How does Cline connect to MCP servers?
Cline reads MCP server configurations from its settings panel in VS Code. Add the server URL and Cline discovers all available tools on initialization.
Can Cline run MCP tools without approval?
By default, Cline asks for confirmation before executing tool calls. You can configure auto-approval rules for trusted servers in the settings.
Does Cline support multiple MCP servers at once?
Yes. Configure as many servers as needed. Cline can use tools from different servers within the same autonomous task execution.
