MCPMonkey
MCPMonkey is an MCP server and Firefox extension so your AI agent can access your browser
Overview
MCPMonkey is a browser extension and MCP server that enables AI agents to interact with your browser, enhancing the capabilities of userscripts through the Model Context Protocol (MCP).
To use MCPMonkey, install the MCP server and the Firefox extension. Configure the MCP server in your AI tool (like Cursor) and load the extension in Firefox to enable AI interactions with your browser.
- Tab Management: Manage browser tabs (create, close, activate, duplicate). - Page Style Extraction: Extract and analyze web page styles in structured JSON format. - User Script Support: Full compatibility with existing userscripts from Violentmonkey.
- Developers can access browser resources directly from AI tools.
- Users can automate browser tasks through natural language commands.
- AI tools can assist in retrieving browsing history or drafting messages.
