About Metadrama/obscura-mcp

This MCP server adapter connects AI models to Obscura's headless browser for Chrome DevTools Protocol automation without needing Chrome. It enables browser control, page interactions, and data extraction through the Model Context Protocol. Built in JavaScript, it is a low-star project in early development.

Best for

Developers building MCP-connected AI agents that need lightweight browser automation

Use cases

  • Automating browser tasks from AI agents
  • Extracting web page data without full browser dependencies
  • Running headless browser tests via MCP

Notes

1 stars on GitHub. Last updated 2026-05-17. Licensed MIT.

Pros

  • Removes Chrome dependency for CDP automation
  • Integrates with MCP ecosystem for AI agent workflows
  • Lightweight compared to Puppeteer or Playwright

Cons

  • Very early stage with only one star on GitHub
  • Limited community support and documentation
  • May lack stability and feature completeness
