Your browser is already logged in. Let your AI use it.

OpenTabs reverse-engineers internal APIs of web apps and exposes them as MCP tools. It consists of an MCP server and a Chrome extension that routes API calls through your browser sessions, enabling fast and deterministic AI interactions without screenshots or DOM scraping. It supports over 100 plugins covering ~2,000 tools.

    Love not having to re-authenticate every time my agent needs to grab something from a private dashboard.

    This seems incredibly convenient, but are there guardrails to prevent it from messing with banking tabs?

    This is wild. Letting Claude-Code browse through my active session to grab cookies and submit forms worked flawlessly.

    Setting it up via the MCP server configuration file was a breeze. Definitely speeds up agent-browser interactions.

    Pairs perfectly with the Claude desktop app. Make sure your Chrome extension is updated though.
