## What it does

browser-use connects an agent to browser automation for tasks like finding information on pages, extracting data, and filling forms. It supports Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf (Devin Desktop), Cline, and Zed.

Claude Code can connect through a local `uvx` process or to the hosted server over HTTP. The local setup requires `uvx`; both options register an MCP server named `browser-use`.

## Requirements
- Needs: Python and uv (commands run via uvx)
- Remote server: `https://api.browser-use.com/v3/mcp`

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http browser-use https://api.browser-use.com/v3/mcp
```

### Codex
