Chrome Bridge MCP Server

An MCP server that gives Claude Code your real, logged-in Chrome - measured 2.75× fewer turns and 2.28× lower cost than the official "Claude in Chrome" extension on a form-filling task, with ~3× the toolset and no paid plan. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

People who work with browser automation, chrome extension and chromeos and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in JavaScript.
