Adds Storybook component and story documentation tools to an MCP server you run yourself.
Public Browser
silbercue · MCP server
Public Browser lets your AI coding assistant open pages, read them as an accessibility tree with element references, click, type, drag and fill several form fields in one call. A plan tool runs several actions with variables and conditions in a single call. Clicks reach elements inside nested cross-origin iframes, and open and closed shadow roots are read. A Node library and a Python client call the same tool handlers directly, so you can script Chrome without an AI model.

Why it's useful
Your assistant can read and act on real web pages, including ones with nested iframes and shadow DOM, from a single browser connection.
What you could do with it
- Ask your assistant to open a page, read it, and fill the contact form with a name and email.
- Have your assistant run several steps with variables and conditions as one plan call.
- Script Chrome from Python with the same tool handlers, with no AI model involved.
Written from its documentation: what it says it can do, not what our checks found.
Maintenance
Not measuredNo release date is on record for this package yet. The nightly publisher check records one as it reaches each npm package, about once every ten nights.
Release activity only: it says nothing about quality or safety, and a finished small package can be fine without releases. How it is measured
What this does not cover
- Everything. Treat it as you would software from anywhere else.
Receipt history: every signed receipt for every version of this listing, and what changed between them.
In its maker's words
Lets Claude Code and Cursor drive Chrome. Blind benchmark vs agent-browser: -33% tokens, -33% cost, -24% tool calls, -32% time, 30/30.

Static scanned
- What it establishes
- Its published package, or for a hosted server its source repository at a recorded commit, was read file by file, without running it, by every check in our current scan.
- What it does not
- How it behaves when it runs, or anything the scan does not read yet: several rubric checks, the repository's history, and compiled code in folders named dist or build. For a hosted server, that the endpoint runs the code that was read. The ooruby Index sets out exactly what was read.
- Exactly what was read
- Version 3.0.0, the file with digest sha512-JBHd8Mlxh9212YaKys/d1hVVIlJ/NX33wKAa0CAYliGOYNyzy+KbVy8643em9wTVYtTPGfaZ1m/nEBr8qH7r3w==, as the registry publishes it. A published version cannot be replaced, so this names the same bytes for anyone who checks.
- Authentication
- Runs locally. No hosted endpoint is listed for this package. You run it on your own machine, so there is no endpoint of ours to authenticate against.

No build provenance published. The repository above is the one the publisher declared, and nothing links it to the package you would install. That is not a mark against this listing, since most packages are published this way, but it is a check nobody can run.
The badge, if this is your listing
It renders the current rung (static scanned) and links back here, where what that does and does not establish is one click away. It updates itself as the evidence deepens.
