Security Report
This is a browser automation MCP server with generally sound architecture and reasonable security practices. The code properly uses environment variables for configuration and implements appropriate authentication via UUIDs for remote relay connections. However, there are several code quality concerns including unvalidated user input in file operations, missing error handling in critical paths, and potential information disclosure through debugging outputs. These issues are not critical but represent security hygiene gaps that should be addressed. Supply chain analysis found 3 known vulnerabilities in dependencies (0 critical, 2 high severity). Package verification found 1 issue.

Vibe MCP - Browser Automation for AI Agents
MCP server for Vibe AI Browser — drive your real, logged-in Chrome from any MCP client, including agents running on a different machine with no inbound port open.
⚠️ Security — treat your relay URL/UUID like a password. A relay URL or extension UUID (
wss://relay.api.vibebrowser.app/<uuid>) grants live control of your browser session (read your tabs, take screenshots, read page content). Never share it, paste it into a chat with untrusted parties, or commit it to a repo. Every example UUID in this documentation is a non-routable placeholder (YOUR-EXTENSION-UUIDor00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000) — substitute your own secret value locally and keep it out of version control.
Install prompt for AI agents (OpenClaw / Hermes)
Paste the block below into your OpenClaw or Hermes agent. Replace the last line with your remote value — a UUID or a wss://relay.api.vibebrowser.app/<uuid> URL from the Vibe extension's Settings → AI Agent Control → Remote (internet) → Relay access. That's the only edit you make.
You are setting yourself up to control my real Chrome through Vibe Browser. Work through the steps in order, and after each step confirm it worked before moving on. Do not claim a step is done until you have proven it.
1. Install the "vibebrowser" skill for your runtime:
- OpenClaw: npx -y skills add VibeTechnologies/vibe-mcp -s vibebrowser -a openclaw -g -y --copy --dangerously-accept-openclaw-risks
then run `openclaw skills list` and confirm a "vibebrowser" row shows "ready" as installer registration.
- Hermes: npx -y skills add VibeTechnologies/vibe-mcp -s vibebrowser -y
optional installer registration check: `npx -y skills list` shows a "vibebrowser" row.
2. Remember my remote so I only give it to you once. Save it to a file `vibebrowser-cli.md` in your persistent agent workspace root (the directory that holds your `memory/` folder — not the shell's working dir, not $HOME unless they are the same) as a line `remote: <value>`; if your runtime can also write memory keys, additionally store it under `vibebrowser_remote`. On every later command — including the first message of a new conversation — load it back from that file and reuse it without asking me again.
3. Record a standing rule so you route correctly later: whenever I ask you to do anything in MY browser / MY Chrome / MY tabs / the page I'm on, use this vibebrowser skill (`npx -y @vibebrowser/cli@latest` with my saved remote) to drive my REAL browser — never your built-in, headless, or in-pod browser, never web-fetch instead, and never run `vibebrowser`. Save this rule wherever your standing instructions/memory live so it applies in future conversations.
4. Confirm you can control my Chrome, retrying on "Extension reconnecting" (wait 3s, up to 5x):
npx -y @vibebrowser/cli@latest --remote "<my remote>" --json status --wait-for-extension --wait-timeout 20000
npx -y @vibebrowser/cli@latest --remote "<my remote>" --json snapshot --format aria
Then report: (1) is extensionConnected true, (2) did the snapshot return my real page content?
My remote: <PASTE YOUR UUID OR wss:// URL HERE>
Why Vibe MCP?
The browser-automation MCP space moved fast. Most of what used to differentiate us is now table stakes — so here is an honest scorecard. Where a competitor matches us, the column says Yes.
| Capability | Vibe MCP | Playwright MCP | Chrome DevTools MCP | Claude for Chrome | BrowserMCP |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Uses your real profile / logged-in sessions | Yes | Yes (--extension) | Yes (own --user-data-dir) | Yes | Yes |
| No per-connection approval dialog | Yes | Yes (token) | Yes (dedicated profile only) | Yes | Yes |
| Real logged-in profile and no dialog, together | Yes | Yes | No — pick one | Yes | Yes |
| Multiple agents against one browser | Yes | Yes (--shared-browser-context) | Yes (--experimentalPageIdRouting) | No | No |
| Agent on another machine, no inbound port | Yes — extension dials out to a relay | No | No — needs an inbound debug port + forwarding | No | No |
| Works with any MCP client (Codex, OpenCode, Cursor, Hermes, OpenClaw) | Yes | Yes | Yes | No — Anthropic surfaces only | Yes |
Two rows are ours alone:
- Outbound, cross-machine control. The Vibe extension opens an outbound WebSocket to a relay (
wss://relay.api.vibebrowser.app/<uuid>). Nothing listens on the user's machine, nothing is port-forwarded, and the agent can live in a pod, a cron job, or a chat bot. No competitor documents an extension-initiated outbound connection to a remote MCP server. - Real profile without the dialog tax. Chrome DevTools MCP needs approval for each WebSocket connection to Chrome (#1794, open; persistence was closed won't-fix). The maintainer's workaround —
--remote-debugging-portwith a dedicated--user-data-dir— avoids the dialog by giving up your logged-in profile. So: skip the dialog, or use your real profile — not both.
Also worth knowing:
- Vendor lock-in. Claude for Chrome is GA, clicks and types via the
debuggerpermission, and supports scheduled tasks — it is the closest competitor. But it only drives Anthropic's own surfaces (side panel, Claude Desktop connector, Cowork, Claude Code). There is no public API or MCP surface, so Codex, OpenCode, Hermes and OpenClaw cannot use it. Vibe MCP is agent-agnostic. - Stability. Chrome DevTools MCP is explicitly experimental and currently carries open memory-leak (#2431, #2291, #2456) and concurrency (#1763, #1921) issues.
Multi-Agent Architecture
Run Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code Copilot, and OpenCode at once — they share control of one browser through the relay, which multiplexes requests and routes each response back to the agent that asked.

Features
- Multi-Agent Ready - Run Claude, Cursor, VS Code, and more simultaneously against one browser
- Uses Your Browser - No separate browser instance, uses your existing Chrome with all your logins
- Remote-capable - The extension dials out to a relay, so the agent can run on another machine with no inbound port
- Local by default - In local mode everything stays on
127.0.0.1; only remote relay mode routes traffic throughrelay.api.vibebrowser.app - Direct Chrome DevTools mode - Extension tools stay primary by default; use
--devtoolsto drive your real running Chrome directly over the DevTools Protocol (no extension required)
Quick Start
1. Install the Vibe Extension
Install the Vibe AI Browser extension in Chrome, Brave, or any Chromium browser:
Option A: Chrome Web Store (Recommended)
- Visit the Chrome Web Store
- Click "Add to Chrome"
- The Vibe icon will appear in your toolbar
Option B: Developer Version
- Download the latest release ZIP
- Extract to a permanent folder
- Go to
chrome://extensions, enable Developer Mode - Click "Load unpacked" and select the extracted folder
For detailed instructions, see the installation guide.
2. Configure Your AI Application
Edit your Claude Desktop config file:
- macOS:
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json - Windows:
%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"vibe": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@vibebrowser/mcp"]
}
}
}
Restart Claude Desktop after saving.
- Open Cursor Settings (Cmd/Ctrl + ,)
- Go to "Features" -> "MCP Servers"
- Click "Add Server" and add:
{
"vibe": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@vibebrowser/mcp"]
}
}
Or edit ~/.cursor/mcp.json directly.
Add to your VS Code settings.json:
{
"github.copilot.chat.mcpServers": {
"vibe": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@vibebrowser/mcp"]
}
}
}
Edit ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"vibe": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@vibebrowser/mcp"]
}
}
}
Add to your .opencode/config.json:
{
"mcp": {
"servers": {
"vibe": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@vibebrowser/mcp"]
}
}
}
}
Add to ~/.gemini/settings.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"vibe": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@vibebrowser/mcp"]
}
}
}
All three share one config file: ~/.codex/config.toml. Configure once, use everywhere.
Easiest — let Codex write the entry:
codex mcp add vibe -- npx -y @vibebrowser/mcp
Or add the table to ~/.codex/config.toml by hand (Codex uses TOML, not JSON):
[mcp_servers.vibe]
command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "@vibebrowser/mcp"]
In the ChatGPT desktop app you can also use the UI: Settings → MCP servers → Add server, choose STDIO, command npx, args -y @vibebrowser/mcp, then Restart.
Verify with codex mcp list, or type /mcp in the Codex TUI or the desktop composer.
ChatGPT on the web does not read local Codex config, so a local MCP server like Vibe is not available there.
MCP command forms
Use the shortest direct package invocation for the MCP server:
npx -y @vibebrowser/mcp@latest --help
npx -y @vibebrowser/mcp@latest start --transport http
npx -y @vibebrowser/mcp@latest openclaw --remote "$VIBE_REMOTE_UUID"
Backward-compatible aliases still work when you need explicit binaries:
npx -y -p @vibebrowser/mcp@latest vibebrowser-mcp --help
npx -y -p @vibebrowser/mcp@latest vibe-mcp --help
3. Connect the Extension
- Open Chrome with the Vibe extension installed
- Click the Vibe extension icon in the toolbar
- Go to Settings and enable "MCP External Control"
- The status should show "Connected"
If the extension is not connected, vibebrowser-mcp can optionally fall back to
chrome-devtools-mcp (started in --autoConnect mode) when that package is installed.
This fallback runs once in the shared local relay daemon (multi-agent safe), so
both vibebrowser-mcp and vibebrowser-cli use the same backend instance.
When extension is connected, extension tools are authoritative.
--devtools mode (drive your real Chrome over CDP)
Pass --devtools to either CLI to bypass relay/extension routing entirely and
drive your real running Chrome directly over the Chrome DevTools Protocol.
This backend (ported from the chrome-use skill) reads Chrome's
DevToolsActivePort file and autoConnects to your live profile — no extension,
no external MCP server, zero extra dependencies. Requires Chrome 144+; the
permission dialog fires once per profile.
--devtools exposes a focused tool set: navigate, snapshot (accessibility
tree with @eN refs), click, fill, type, press_key, hover, scroll,
screenshot, eval, get_text, get_url, get_title, and tab management
(list_tabs, new_tab, select_tab, close_tab). Use snapshot to get
@eN element refs, then pass them as selectors to click/fill/type.
Override the Chrome profile/channel with VIBE_CHROME_USER_DATA_DIR and
VIBE_CHROME_CHANNEL (stable | canary | beta | dev).
Not yet covered by --devtools v1 (addable later as more CDP domains are wired):
network request inspection, console logs, performance traces, Lighthouse, memory
snapshots, device emulation, dialog handling, file upload, and drag.

Vibe Extension (Chrome)
- AI applications connect via MCP over stdio
vibebrowser-mcpconnects to the local relay on port19888- The relay forwards commands to the extension on port
19889 - Results flow back to the agent
Two legs, two protocols
Don't conflate them — the transport to the MCP server is configurable, the transport to the extension is not.
| Leg | Protocol | Configurable? |
|---|---|---|
MCP client → vibebrowser-mcp | stdio or streamable HTTP | Yes — --transport stdio|http |
vibebrowser-mcp ↔ relay ↔ extension | WebSocket only | No |
MCP client ──stdio──┐
├──> [vibebrowser-mcp] ──ws──> [relay] ──ws──> [extension]
MCP client ──http───┘
Streamable HTTP lets a remote or hosted agent — one that can't spawn a stdio subprocess — talk to the server over a URL:
npx -y @vibebrowser/mcp@latest start --transport http
# serves POST/GET http://127.0.0.1:8788/mcp
Defaults: --host 127.0.0.1, --http-port 8788, --http-path /mcp. Add
--allow-host <host> (repeatable) if you front it with a proxy or bind it
beyond localhost.
Multi-Agent Mode
When multiple agents connect, Vibe MCP automatically spawns a relay daemon:
- First agent starts the relay (listens on ports 19888 and 19889)
- Additional agents connect to the relay as clients
- Relay multiplexes all agent requests to the single extension connection
- Each agent receives only its own responses
Cloud OpenClaw -> Local Browser
⚠️ Security: The
--remotevalue below is a live credential — a relay URL/UUID grants full control of the target browser session. It is the sole bearer credential (there is no second-factor token). Treat it like a password: keep it secret, never commit it or paste it into logs, and if it leaks, regenerate it in the Vibe extension Settings.
If your agent runs in the cloud but you want it to control the user's real local browser, run vibebrowser-mcp in HTTP mode and connect it to the Vibe extension in remote relay mode. Pass either the extension UUID or the full WebSocket relay URL to --remote.
VIBE_REMOTE_UUID="YOUR-EXTENSION-UUID"
VIBE_REMOTE_URL="wss://relay.api.vibebrowser.app/YOUR-EXTENSION-UUID"
npx -y @vibebrowser/mcp@latest start --transport http --remote "$VIBE_REMOTE_UUID"
npx -y @vibebrowser/mcp@latest start --transport http --remote "$VIBE_REMOTE_URL"
This exposes a local MCP endpoint at http://127.0.0.1:8788/mcp by default.
When OpenClaw runs on a different machine (for example cloud-hosted), provide a reachable URL:
VIBE_REMOTE_UUID="YOUR-EXTENSION-UUID"
VIBE_REMOTE_URL="wss://relay.api.vibebrowser.app/YOUR-EXTENSION-UUID"
PUBLIC_MCP_URL="https://browser-bridge.example.com/mcp"
npx -y @vibebrowser/mcp@latest openclaw --remote "$VIBE_REMOTE_UUID" --public-url "$PUBLIC_MCP_URL"
npx -y @vibebrowser/mcp@latest openclaw --remote "$VIBE_REMOTE_URL" --public-url "$PUBLIC_MCP_URL"
You can print the exact OpenClaw-friendly setup with:
VIBE_REMOTE_UUID="YOUR-EXTENSION-UUID"
VIBE_REMOTE_URL="wss://relay.api.vibebrowser.app/YOUR-EXTENSION-UUID"
npx -y @vibebrowser/mcp@latest openclaw --remote "$VIBE_REMOTE_UUID"
npx -y @vibebrowser/mcp@latest openclaw --remote "$VIBE_REMOTE_URL"
Use --remote <uuid> with the default public relay, or --remote <full-ws-url> when you need an explicit relay endpoint. The UUID is the only credential — never share it, log it, or paste it into an untrusted chat.
For direct browser CLI checks, always use npx -y @vibebrowser/cli@latest:
VIBE_REMOTE_UUID="YOUR-EXTENSION-UUID"
VIBE_REMOTE_URL="wss://relay.api.vibebrowser.app/YOUR-EXTENSION-UUID"
npx -y @vibebrowser/cli@latest --remote "$VIBE_REMOTE_UUID" --json status
npx -y @vibebrowser/cli@latest --remote "$VIBE_REMOTE_URL" --json status
--remote <uuid> uses the default public relay. --remote <full-ws-url> targets an explicit relay endpoint. No second-factor secret is needed or accepted — the UUID alone authorizes the session.
For the full walkthrough, see docs/openclaw-local-browser.md.
OpenClaw-Compatible Browser CLI
npx -y @vibebrowser/cli@latest mirrors the OpenClaw browser CLI shape for the real local-browser path:
npx -y @vibebrowser/cli@latest sessions
VIBE_REMOTE_UUID="YOUR-EXTENSION-UUID"
VIBE_REMOTE_URL="wss://relay.api.vibebrowser.app/YOUR-EXTENSION-UUID"
npx -y @vibebrowser/cli@latest --remote "$VIBE_REMOTE_UUID" status
npx -y @vibebrowser/cli@latest --remote "$VIBE_REMOTE_URL" tabs
npx -y @vibebrowser/cli@latest --remote "$VIBE_REMOTE_UUID" open https://example.com
npx -y @vibebrowser/cli@latest --remote "$VIBE_REMOTE_URL" snapshot
npx -y @vibebrowser/cli@latest --remote "$VIBE_REMOTE_UUID" click 12
npx -y @vibebrowser/cli@latest --remote "$VIBE_REMOTE_URL" type 23 "hello" --submit
npx -y @vibebrowser/cli@latest --devtools status
Use the MCP package for MCP server workflows and the CLI package for direct browser control:
vibebrowser-mcpfor MCP server, HTTP bridge, and helper commandsnpx -y @vibebrowser/cli@latestfor OpenClaw-inspired browser control against the real Vibe-connected session
@vibebrowser/cli accepts the OpenClaw-style --browser-profile flag for compatibility and supports --json for machine-readable output. Unlike OpenClaw's managed openclaw browser profile, this CLI always targets the real Vibe-connected browser session.
Local-session selection:
npx -y @vibebrowser/cli@latest sessionslists connected local browser sessions.npx -y @vibebrowser/cli@latest --session <id> ...targets a specific local session.- If
--sessionis omitted in local mode, the CLI uses the first connected session. - In remote mode, pass either
--remote <uuid>to use the default public relay or--remote <full-ws-url>to use an explicit relay endpoint.
Snapshot behavior is tool-only (no legacy snapshot RPC shortcut):
snapshot(default,--format ai) resolves via thetake_md_snapshottool — uses the content script's in-page markdown extractor. Fast and readable, but may return empty for background tabs or complex SPAs (Notion, Gmail) where the content script is unreachable or layout is not computed.snapshot --format ariaresolves via thetake_a11y_snapshottool — uses Chrome DevTools ProtocolAccessibility.getFullAXTreedirectly. Reliable for all tabs including background tabs and SPAs. Use this as a fallback when the default format returns empty or only a page title.
This keeps CLI behavior aligned with extension-supported tools and ensures page targeting works consistently with --page-id/--pageId.
For navigation-style operations, responses now include page content when page state changes:
- CLI
open/navigateincludepageContentin JSON output. - MCP tool calls for navigation-style tools return text content that includes current page state (with snapshot fallback when needed).
Install Prompt for AI Agents (OpenClaw / Hermes)
Use the single canonical copy-paste prompt at the top of this README:
Install prompt for AI agents (OpenClaw / Hermes).
It installs the vibebrowser skill, saves your remote so you only give it once, and proves
control of your real Chrome.
For a deeper skill definition (when to prefer this over a managed/headless browser, the remote-recall rules, selector/snapshot guidance), install openclaw/vibebrowser/SKILL.md into the agent's skills directory.
OpenClaw Integration
There are two ways to use Vibe with OpenClaw:
Option A: Cloud OpenClaw controlling local browser
If OpenClaw runs in the cloud but you want it to control your local browser:
- Install the Vibe extension and enable Remote mode (see docs/openclaw-local-browser.md)
- Start the local HTTP bridge:
vibebrowser-mcp openclaw --remote "$VIBE_REMOTE_UUID" [--public-url "$PUBLIC_MCP_URL"]orvibebrowser-mcp openclaw --remote "$VIBE_REMOTE_URL" [--public-url "$PUBLIC_MCP_URL"] - Register the MCP URL in OpenClaw
Option B: OpenClaw skill for local agents
For OpenClaw agents that need your real browser context (logged-in sessions, existing tabs):
- Copy the Vibe skill from this package to your OpenClaw skills folder
- Use the extension UUID or full WebSocket relay URL with
--remote - Use
npx -y @vibebrowser/cli@latestcommands in your agent prompts
The skill is located at openclaw/vibebrowser/SKILL.md and provides:
- Full OpenClaw-compatible CLI commands (
status,tabs,snapshot,click,type, etc.) - Fallback-safe commands for DevTools-backed flows (
resize,upload,dialog) --jsonoutput for machine parsing- Environment-based configuration
See docs/openclaw-local-browser.md for the complete walkthrough.
Local LLM: serve Command
Run a local LLM with one command — no cloud API keys required. Automatically installs Ollama, downloads the model, and starts serving an OpenAI-compatible API.
npx -y @vibebrowser/mcp@latest serve qwen3.5
That's it. Works on macOS, Linux, and Windows.
What it does
- Detects Ollama → installs it if missing (via
brew,curl, orwinget) - Starts the server → launches
ollama servein the background - Downloads the model → streams download progress to your terminal
- Prints connection info → ready to use with VibeBrowser or any OpenAI-compatible client
Recommended models
npx -y @vibebrowser/mcp@latest serve qwen3.5 # Best overall for agentic tasks
npx -y @vibebrowser/mcp@latest serve llama4 # Strong general reasoning
npx -y @vibebrowser/mcp@latest serve deepseek-r1 # Reasoning chains
npx -y @vibebrowser/mcp@latest serve mistral # Lightweight & fast (7B)
Options
npx -y @vibebrowser/mcp@latest serve <model> [options]
Options:
-p, --port <number> Ollama API port (default: 11434)
-y, --yes Skip install confirmation prompts
-d, --debug Enable debug logging
Using with VibeBrowser extension
After serve completes, configure the extension:
- Model provider →
ollama - Model name → the model you served (e.g.,
qwen3.5)
The extension connects to http://localhost:11434/v1 automatically.

Troubleshooting
"No connection to Vibe extension"
- Ensure the Vibe extension is installed in Chrome
- Click the extension icon and enable "MCP External Control" in Settings
- Check that no firewall is blocking localhost connections
"OpenClaw cannot reach my local browser bridge"
- Start
vibebrowser-mcpin HTTP mode instead of stdio - Make sure the bridge process is still running on the user's machine
- Confirm the extension is in
Remotemode and connected - Verify the MCP URL in OpenClaw matches the bridge URL. If OpenClaw is cloud-hosted, do not use
127.0.0.1; useopenclaw --public-urlwith a reachable host.
