# Chrome DevTools MCP
**GitHub Repository:** https://github.com/ChromeDevTools/chrome-devtools-mcp
Without browser access, Claude is "coding blindfolded" - making changes without seeing results. The Chrome DevTools MCP server provides specialised tools across these categories:
| Category | Capabilities |
|----------|--------------|
| **Visual Inspection** | Take screenshots, capture DOM snapshots, see rendered output |
| **Console & Logging** | Read console messages, catch JavaScript errors, debug issues |
| **Network Analysis** | Inspect API requests/responses, analyse headers, debug fetch calls |
| **Performance** | Record traces, measure Core Web Vitals (LCP, CLS, TBT), identify bottlenecks |
| **User Simulation** | Click elements, fill forms, drag-and-drop, handle dialogs |
| **Device Emulation** | Simulate mobile viewports, throttle CPU/network, test responsive design |
## Quick Start Workflow
Execute these steps in order:
### Step 1: Detect Environment
```bash
bash scripts/detect_environment.sh
```
Returns one of: `windows`, `linux`, or `wsl2`
### Step 2: Verify Chrome Installation
```bash
bash scripts/check_chrome.sh <environment>
```
Outputs `status:installed` or `status:not_installed`. If not installed, see [references/chrome-installation.md](references/chrome-installation.md) for installation options.
**IMPORTANT:** Do not proceed until Chrome is installed and verified.
### Step 3: Check MCP Server Status
```bash
claude mcp list | grep -i chrome
```
