ChromeBoost Gives Claude a Real Browser to Operate

chromeboost.work Observed source
Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An open-source Chrome extension and MCP server lets Claude Code, Gemini CLI, or Codex control a user’s already signed-in browser through natural-language requests.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-29 issue.

Field notes

The workflow is split between a browser extension and an MCP server, with the agent acting inside the visible Chrome window rather than a separate headless session. Listed operations include form discovery, real-event dragging, screenshot capture, page-text reading, and direct writes to .env files. The page also describes approval checkpoints for publishing actions, including a social-reply example that drafts 24 responses but sends none without review.
