star history
Playwriter is a browser automation tool specifically designed for AI agents. It connects to the user’s running Chrome instance rather than spawning a fresh browser, preserving logins, extensions, cookies, and avoiding bot detection. The tool provides both a Chrome extension and CLI interface, exposing the full Playwright API as an MCP server so AI agents can browse the web, interact with pages, and execute JavaScript in stateful sandboxed sessions.
