You can now ask Claude Code or Cursor to record a screen video of a website tour — open a page, scroll, move to the next page, scroll again — and hand you back an MP4. The whole thing runs in a cloud Chrome session. There is nothing to install: no browser on your machine, and no screen-capture app running in the background.

This started as a question — can we clip video from the remote browser instead of the local one? — and turned into a capability we think a lot of people will reach for: a demo/tour video of any live site, driven entirely from the agent you already work in.

Browser automation is how you test web apps end-to-end, scrape structured data from public sites, debug production issues by replaying user journeys, and automate repetitive form-filling workflows. Navigate to any page, read its content, click buttons, fill forms, take screenshots, inspect network traffic, run JavaScript, check console errors — all programmatically through natural language.

Playwright is the industry standard for browser automation: fast, reliable, cross-browser (Chrome, Firefox, WebKit), built for modern web apps. The MCPBundles browser bundles expose Playwright as MCP tools you can call from any AI agent, with two deployment modes: Local Browser (Chrome on your machine via the desktop proxy) and Remote Browser (cloud-hosted Chrome with no local install). This guide is the use-case version of "AI + Browser": what you ask, what the agent does, what comes back.
