etsd-tech/mcp-pointer
An MCP server with Chrome Extension that lets users point at browser DOM elements to provide visual context to AI coding assistants.

MCP Pointer is a Model Context Protocol server paired with a Chrome Extension that enables agentic coding tools to see what the user sees in the browser. Users hold Option+Click to select DOM elements, and the tool extracts text content, CSS classes, HTML attributes, positioning, and styling information. The server exposes this contextual data to AI coding assistants through standardized MCP tools, allowing them to understand the browser UI context when assisting with code.
