Playwright MCP is an open-source Model Context Protocol (MCP) server from Microsoft that exposes Playwright-powered browser automation as callable tools for AI agents. Instead of relying on screenshots or visually-tuned models, it provides structured page state (including accessibility snapshots) so an LLM can reliably understand and interact with live web pages—clicking, typing, waiting for selectors, navigating, and validating outcomes. It’s useful for AI-assisted web testing, agent-driven site exploration, and automations that need a real browser environment with deterministic, tool-based control.

Reasoning: Playwright MCP enables significant autonomous capabilities for AI agents through structured web interaction without human intervention. The agent can independently navigate web pages, fill forms, click buttons, extract data, and perform complex multi-step workflows in a human-like manner. It operates deterministically using structured accessibility...
