Summary

Puppeteer, a JavaScript library for controlling Chrome or Firefox via DevTools Protocol or WebDriver BiDi, now offers an experimental WebMCP API and a dedicated MCP server (chrome-devtools-mcp) for browser automation and debugging. The library defaults to headless mode and requires manual browser download via `npx puppeteer browsers install` when package managers block install scripts. Its high-level API supports accessible locators like `::-p-aria` and `::-p-text` for robust element selection.
