Tabz MCP - Browser Automation

Overview

Control Chrome browser programmatically via the Tabz MCP server. 70 tools for screenshots, interaction, network debugging, and more.

Tool Discovery (MCP-CLI Mode)

bash

# List all tabz tools
mcp-cli tools tabz
 
# Search for specific tools
mcp-cli tools tabz | grep screenshot
mcp-cli grep "network"
 
# Get tool schema before calling (REQUIRED)
mcp-cli info tabz/tabz_screenshot
 
# Call tool
mcp-cli call tabz/tabz_screenshot '{}'

Browser Debugging (Common Issues)

Check Console Errors

bash

mcp-cli info tabz/tabz_get_console_logs
mcp-cli call tabz/tabz_get_console_logs '{"level": "error"}'

Debug Network/API Issues

bash

# 1. Enable capture BEFORE triggering the action
mcp-cli info tabz/tabz_enable_network_capture
mcp-cli call tabz/tabz_enable_network_capture '{}'
 
# 2. Trigger the action (click button, navigate, etc.)
 
# 3. Get failed requests (status >= 400)
mcp-cli info tabz/tabz_get_network_requests
mcp-cli call tabz/tabz_get_network_requests '{"statusMin": 400}'
 
# Or filter by URL pattern
mcp-cli call tabz/tabz_get_network_requests '{"urlPattern": "api/"}'

Screenshot for Visual QA

bash

mcp-cli info tabz/tabz_screenshot
mcp-cli call tabz/tabz_screenshot '{}'
# Returns file path - use Read tool to view the image

Check Page State

bash

mcp-cli info tabz/tabz_get_page_info
mcp-cli call tabz/tabz_get_page_info '{}'
# Returns URL, title, loading state
 
mcp-cli info tabz/tabz_get_element
mcp-cli call tabz/tabz_get_element '{"selector": "#error-message", "includeStyles": true}'

Performance Profiling

bash

mcp-cli info tabz/tabz_profile_performance
mcp-cli call tabz/tabz_profile_performance '{}'
# Returns: DOM node count, JS heap size, event listeners, timing metrics

DOM Tree Inspection

bash

mcp-cli info tabz/tabz_get_dom_tree
mcp-cli call tabz/tabz_get_dom_tree '{"maxDepth": 3}'
# Or focus on specific element
mcp-cli call tabz/tabz_get_dom_tree '{"selector": "main", "maxDepth": 5}'

Code Coverage Analysis

bash

mcp-cli info tabz/tabz_get_coverage
mcp-cli call tabz/tabz_get_coverage '{"type": "js"}'
# Shows used vs unused bytes per file

Tab Groups (Parallel Workers)

When multiple Claude workers run in parallel, each MUST create their own named group:

bash

# Create unique group for this worker
mcp-cli info tabz/tabz_create_group
mcp-cli call tabz/tabz_create_group '{"tabIds": [123, 456], "title": "ISSUE-ID: Research", "color": "blue"}'
 
# Add more tabs later
mcp-cli call tabz/tabz_add_to_group '{"groupId": 12345, "tabIds": [789]}'
 
# Cleanup when done
mcp-cli call tabz/tabz_ungroup_tabs '{"tabIds": [123, 456, 789]}'

Group colors: grey, blue, red, yellow, green, pink, purple, cyan

Quick Patterns

Screenshot:

bash

mcp-cli call tabz/tabz_screenshot '{}'

Click:

bash

mcp-cli call tabz/tabz_click '{"selector": "button.submit"}'

Fill form:

bash

mcp-cli call tabz/tabz_fill '{"selector": "#email", "value": "test@example.com"}'

Switch tab:

bash

mcp-cli call tabz/tabz_list_tabs '{}'  # Get tab IDs (large integers like 1762556601)
mcp-cli call tabz/tabz_switch_tab '{"tabId": 1762556601}'

TTS notification:

bash

mcp-cli call tabz/tabz_speak '{"text": "Done!", "priority": "high"}'

Important Notes

Always check schema first: Run mcp-cli info tabz/<tool> before mcp-cli call
Tab IDs: Chrome tab IDs are large integers (e.g., 1762556601), not 1, 2, 3
Network capture: Enable BEFORE the page makes requests
Screenshots: Return file paths - use Read tool to view
Selectors: CSS selectors - #id, .class, button[type="submit"]
JSON quoting: Use single quotes around JSON, double quotes inside

Heredoc for Complex JSON

For complex nested JSON, use heredoc to avoid escaping issues:

bash

mcp-cli call tabz/tabz_execute_script - <<'EOF'
{"code": "document.querySelector('button').click()"}
EOF
