Microsoft's official Playwright MCP server that provides browser automation capabilities for AI agents. Enables navigating web pages, clicking elements, filling forms, taking screenshots, and extracting content. Supports headless and headed modes with Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit browsers. Ideal for web testing, scraping, and interactive browsing tasks.
Official Browserbase MCP server for cloud browser automation. Lets AI agents create headless browser sessions, navigate pages, extract content, take screenshots, and perform actions using Stagehand, enabling reliable web automation and scraping at scale from AI-powered tools.
Official Apify MCP server that gives AI agents access to thousands of Actors for web scraping and automation. Agents can run Actors to extract data from websites, search engines, social platforms, and maps, then retrieve structured results from the dataset, enabling rich web research and data collection.
Provides browser automation capabilities through the Model Context Protocol using Puppeteer. Enables AI agents to navigate web pages, take screenshots, click elements, fill forms, and execute JavaScript in a browser context. Useful for web scraping, testing, and interacting with web applications programmatically. Originally part of the reference servers, now archived and available in servers-archived.
Skills vs MCP servers
what's the difference?Skillsthe “what to do”
A skillA reusable, structured prompt/workflow with recommended models, an example prompt, and compatible tools. packages know-how — instructions, an example promptA ready-to-use prompt template that demonstrates how to invoke the skill., and recommended models — so an agent performs a task consistently. Skills add knowledge, not new connections.
MCP serversthe “how to connect”
An MCP serverModel Context Protocol server — a standard way to expose tools, resources, and prompts to AI agents and IDEs. gives an agent new capabilities by connecting it to real systems (databases, APIs, files) over a transportHow the client talks to the server: stdio (local process), SSE, or HTTP streaming.. MCP adds connections and actions, not task instructions.
Rule of thumb: reach for a skill when you need the model to do a task well, and an MCP server when you need it to reach a tool or system. They compose — a skill can rely on tools an MCP server provides.
