MCP.Pizza Chef: hyperbrowserai

Beyond reading a single page, this hands your assistant a cloud browser that can crawl a whole site, run a Bing search, pull out the specific details you name from messy pages, and work a site by clicking and typing the way a person would. Three different browsing agents are available, including the Claude and OpenAI computer-use models. You need a Hyperbrowser account key, and setup is one small block pasted into Claude Desktop, Cursor, or Windsurf.

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.

mcp FAQ

Which apps does this work in?
Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Windsurf all have documented setups, and any MCP-capable app can use it.
Do I need an account key?
Yes. You sign up with Hyperbrowser and paste their key into the settings block.
Can I use this to gather information from many pages at once?
Yes. It can crawl linked pages across a site and bring the content back together.
Does the browsing happen on my computer?
No. It runs on Hyperbrowser's machines, so your own browser is never tied up.
Can it actually click things, not just read?
Yes. It offers browser agents that navigate, click, and type their way through a site to finish a task.
How hard is the setup?
You paste a few lines into your app's settings and add your key, or install it through Smithery with one command.
Can it stay signed in to a site between sessions?
It can create and reuse saved browser profiles, so a signed-in session carries over.
