Frame 5

This is Hyperbrowser's Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server. It provides various tools to scrape, extract structured data, and crawl webpages. It also provides easy access to general purpose browser agents like OpenAI's CUA, Anthropic's Claude Computer Use, and Browser Use.

More information about the Hyperbrowser can be found here. The hyperbrowser API supports a superset of features present in the mcp server.

Installation

Manual Installation

To install the server, run:

npx hyperbrowser-mcp <YOUR-HYPERBROWSER-API-KEY>

Running on Cursor

Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json like this:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hyperbrowser": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "hyperbrowser-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "HYPERBROWSER_API_KEY": "YOUR-API-KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Running on Windsurf

Add to your ./codeium/windsurf/model_config.json like this:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hyperbrowser": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "hyperbrowser-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "HYPERBROWSER_API_KEY": "YOUR-API-KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Development

For development purposes, you can run the server directly from the source code.

  1. Clone the repository:

    git clone [email protected]:hyperbrowserai/mcp.git hyperbrowser-mcp
    cd hyperbrowser-mcp
    
  2. Install dependencies:

    npm install # or yarn install
    npm run build
    
  3. Run the server:

    node dist/server.js
    

Claude Desktop app

This is an example config for the Hyperbrowser MCP server for the Claude Desktop client.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hyperbrowser": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["--yes", "hyperbrowser-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "HYPERBROWSER_API_KEY": "your-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Tools

  • scrape_webpage - Extract formatted (markdown, screenshot etc) content from any webpage
  • crawl_webpages - Navigate through multiple linked pages and extract LLM-friendly formatted content
  • extract_structured_data - Convert messy HTML into structured JSON
  • search_with_bing - Query the web and get results with Bing search
  • browser_use_agent - Fast, lightweight browser automation with the Browser Use agent
  • openai_computer_use_agent - General-purpose automation using OpenAI’s CUA model
  • claude_computer_use_agent - Complex browser tasks using Claude computer use

Installing via Smithery

To install Hyperbrowser MCP Server for Claude Desktop automatically via Smithery:

npx -y @smithery/cli install @hyperbrowserai/mcp --client claude

Resources

Frequently Asked Questions

What is MCP?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open protocol that standardizes how applications provide context to LLMs. Think of MCP like a USB-C port for AI applications, providing a standardized way to connect AI models to different data sources and tools.

What are MCP Servers?

MCP Servers are lightweight programs that expose specific capabilities through the standardized Model Context Protocol. They act as bridges between LLMs like Claude and various data sources or services, allowing secure access to files, databases, APIs, and other resources.

How do MCP Servers work?

MCP Servers follow a client-server architecture where a host application (like Claude Desktop) connects to multiple servers. Each server provides specific functionality through standardized endpoints and protocols, enabling Claude to access data and perform actions through the standardized protocol.

Are MCP Servers secure?

Yes, MCP Servers are designed with security in mind. They run locally with explicit configuration and permissions, require user approval for actions, and include built-in security features to prevent unauthorized access and ensure data privacy.
