LaskoBOT — Protocol v2, Multi‑Instance, Cross‑Browser

Modern MCP server + browser extensions for reliable, multi‑instance automation over a single WebSocket daemon.

✨ Features

✨ Highlights

• Single WS daemon (8765), many sessions (Claude instances)
• Per‑session tab routing and ownership (no cross‑talk)
• Unified tools across Chrome and Firefox
• Auto‑reconnect (Firefox adds alarms + online hooks)

🚀 Quick Start

Prerequisites

• Node.js 20+
• Chrome or Firefox
• Claude Desktop with MCP support

Installation

Option 1: Quick Deploy Script

git clone https://github.com/david-strejc/browsermcp-enhanced.git
cd browsermcp-enhanced
./scripts/deploy

Option 2: Manual Installation

1. Clone and build:

git clone https://github.com/david-strejc/browsermcp-enhanced.git
cd browsermcp-enhanced
npm install
npm run build

2. Install systemd services (HTTP + WS daemon):

sudo ./scripts/systemd-install.sh --user "$USER" \
  --install-dir "/home/$USER/.local/lib/browsermcp-enhanced" \
  --http-port 3000 --ws-port 8765

3. Load extension (one browser at a time):

• Chrome: chrome://extensions → Developer mode → Load unpacked → chrome-extension/
• Firefox: about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox → Load Temporary Add‑on → firefox-extension/manifest.json

4. Configure Claude Desktop: Point to http://127.0.0.1:3000/mcp

📖 Usage

Basic Navigation

// Navigate to a URL
await browser_navigate({ url: "https://example.com" })

// Snapshot
await snapshot.accessibility({ mode: 'scaffold' })

// Click an element
await browser_click({ ref: "button-1", element: "Submit button" })

JavaScript Execution

// Plain DOM
await js.execute({ code: "return document.title" })

// Safe operation (no code)
await js.execute({ method: 'query', args: ['h3', { attrs: ['textContent'], limit: 10 }] })

// Unsafe (enable in extension options first)
await js.execute({ code: "(function(){ return location.href })()", unsafe: true })

Form Automation

// Multi-step form filling
await browser_multitool({
  intent: "form_fill",
  snapshot: snapshotData,
  fields: {
    "username": "john.doe",
    "email": "john@example.com",
    "message": "Hello world"
  }
})
