<img src="./logo.svg" width="20" height="20"> SelAgent

A Selenium-powered MCP server that exposes browser automation as tool calls. Designed to let AI agents navigate, interact with, and test web pages through natural language.

Usage

Prerequisites:

• UV Package Manager

1. Initialize the Project

SelAgent uses uv (a fast alternative to pip). Run the following in your project directory:

uv init

2. Configure the MCP Server

You can install SelAgent automatically or configure it manually for your preferred client.

Option A: Automatic Installation (Claude Desktop)

uv run mcp install main.py

<details> <summary>Note on Automatic Installation</summary>

<p>The above command only works if the Claude Desktop config is in <em>C:\Users[username]\AppData\Roaming\Claude</em>.<br> Otherwise you must manually update the configuration.<br> If installed from the Microsoft Store, the path would be <em>C:\Users[username]\AppData\Local\Packages\Claude_pzs8sxrjxfjjc\LocalCache\Roaming\Claude</em></p>

</details> <br>

Option B: Manual Configuration for Claude Desktop

Add the following to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "selagent": {
      "command": "C:\\path\\to\\uv.exe",
      "args": [
        "run",
        "--with",
        "mcp[cli]",
        "mcp",
        "run",
        "C:\\path\\to\\SelAgent\\main.py"
      ]
    }
  }
}

<details> <summary>Config File Locations</summary>

<p>Standard install: <em>C:\Users[username]\AppData\Roaming\Claude</em>.<br> Microsoft Store install: <em>C:\Users[username]\AppData\Local\Packages\Claude_pzs8sxrjxfjjc\LocalCache\Roaming\Claude</em></p>

</details> <br>

Option C: Manual Configuration for VS Code

1. Press Ctrl + Shift + P and select MCP: Add Server
2. Select Command and enter: uv run --with mcp[cli] mcp run C:\path\to\SelAgent\main.py
3. Alternatively, update C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Code\User\mcp.json directly:

{
  "servers": {
    "selagent": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "uv",
      "args": [
        "run",
        "--with",
        "mcp[cli]",
        "mcp",
        "run",
        "C:\\path\\to\\SelAgent\\main.py"
      ]
    }
  }
}
