Introduction

MCP Selenium is a Model Context Protocol server for Selenium WebDriver, giving browser automation to AI agents. It is published by Angie Jones under the MIT licence at angiejones/mcp-selenium and as the npm package @angiejones/mcp-selenium.

Agents call tools such as start_browser, navigate, interact, send_keys and take_screenshot. Supported browsers are Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Safari.

Features

  1. Browser sessions: Start Chrome, Firefox, Edge or Safari, headless or headed.
  2. Navigation and interaction: Click, double-click, right-click, hover and type.
  3. Locator strategies: id, css, xpath, name, tag and class.
  4. Element reads: Get text and attributes.
  5. Screenshots: Capture the page.
  6. Easy setup: Goose, Claude Code and generic MCP config are documented.

Pros

  1. Selenium ecosystem: Uses the W3C WebDriver standard and real browsers.
  2. MIT licence: Free and permissive.
  3. Cross-browser: Four major browsers.
  4. Simple tool set: Easy for agents to use.
  5. Well-known author: Angie Jones is a long-time test automation educator.

Cons

  1. Smaller tool set: Fewer capabilities than Playwright MCP or DevTools MCP.
  2. Less frequent updates: Last push in February 2026 at review.
  3. Locators required: The agent must choose locators.
  4. Local drivers: Browsers and drivers on the machine.
  5. Not a runner: No assertions or reports.

Claude Code, from the README:

claude mcp add selenium -- npx -y @angiejones/mcp-selenium@latest

Then tell the agent: “Open Chrome, go to github.com/angiejones, and take a screenshot.”

Pricing

MCP Selenium is free and open source under MIT.

  1. Selenium users who want agents on the same stack.
  2. Cross-browser checks including Safari.
  3. Educators and learners exploring MCP.
  4. Not a fit if you need rich debugging or performance tools.

Conclusion

MCP Selenium is a simple, MIT-licensed bridge from AI agents to Selenium WebDriver across four browsers.

It is lighter than newer browser MCP servers, which keeps it easy to understand.
