Deno 2 Playwright Model Context Protocol Server Example
A Model Context Protocol server that provides browser automation capabilities using Playwright. This server enables LLMs to interact with web pages, take screenshots, and execute JavaScript in a real browser environment.
This repo uses Deno 2, which has nice ergonomics, because you can compile a binary and run it without any runtime dependencies.
This code is heavily based on the official Puppeteer MCP server, which you can find here: https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/servers/tree/main/src/puppeteer
How to build
Only the mac binary build has been tested, but you should be able to build an executable binary for linux x86_64, linux ARM64, and windows x86_64.
