How to use Chrome DevTools MCP: what you can do with it

What is Chrome DevTools MCP? Chrome DevTools for agents (chrome-devtools-mcp) lets a coding agent such as Claude, Cursor, Copilot or Antigravity control and inspect a live Chrome browser, as an MCP server or as a CLI. The agent can record performance traces and get insights, read network requests and console messages with source-mapped stack traces, take screenshots, and automate pages with Puppeteer. The README warns that it exposes the browser's content to the MCP client, so avoid sensitive sites in that browser.

How do I use it? Add an mcpServers entry named chrome-devtools that runs npx with chrome-devtools-mcp@latest; then Restart your MCP client so the tools load; ask the agent to open your local app and report console messages and failed network requests. Full steps below.
