by vpsone • Search & Retrieval

An MCP server paired with a Firefox extension that lets LLM-based agents control the user's local browser (tabs, history, page content, search, and highlighting).

Example Use Cases

1
Programmatically open, close, and reorder browser tabs on a user's Firefox instance to organize or scope browsing sessions.
2
Read and search a user's browser history to find previously visited pages or surface relevant past research.
3
Extract webpage text and links, and to find or highlight specific text in pages for summarization, comparison, or guided reading.

Description

This repository provides an MCP server and a Firefox browser extension that enable LLM clients (e.g., Claude Desktop) to open/close/reorder tabs, read and search browser history, extract webpage text and links, and find/highlight text in tabs. It is intended for local automation and agent-assisted browsing tasks where the model needs direct, programmatic access to a user's browser. Installation and usage instructions for both the server and the Firefox extension are included in the README.
