README
# BrowserMCP Extension for Gemini CLI This is a Gemini CLI extension that integrates [BrowserMCP](https://browsermcp.io/), providing your AI agent with the ability to view, navigate, and interact with web pages directly in your browser. ## What This Extension Does By giving the agent "eyes" and "hands", this extension enables the Gemini CLI to: * Navigate to specific URLs * Inspect and read the DOM * Click buttons and links * Type text into form fields * Read browser console logs This makes the extension incredibly useful for automating UI testing, extracting data from complex web apps, or having the agent perform repetitive web-based workflows on your behalf. ## Prerequisites & How It Works This extension is a lightweight wrapper that connects the Gemini CLI to the BrowserMCP server. For this to work, you **must** have the BrowserMCP Chrome extension installed in your active browser session: 1. Install the [BrowserMCP Chrome Extension](https://docs.browsermcp.io/setup-extension). (It takes about 30 seconds.) 2. Navigate to the web page you want the agent to interact with. 3. Click the BrowserMCP extension icon and click **"Connect"**. *Note: The agent cannot spawn new browser sessions or operate in "headless" mode. It relies entirely on the active, connected tab.* ## Installation To install this extension into your Gemini CLI, run: ```bash gemini extensions install https://github.com/derailed-dash/browsermcp-ext ``` Once installed, simply start the Gemini CLI and run `/mcp` to verify the `browsermcp` tools are loaded. ## Disclaimer I am the author of this specific Gemini CLI extension wrapper. However, I am **not** the author of the BrowserMCP server or the underlying BrowserMCP project it relies upon. Full credit goes to the creators of [BrowserMCP](https://browsermcp.io/).
