get_command_list
List all available Selenix commands (click, type, open, etc.) with descriptions.
get_current_test
Get the commands of the current test (or a specific test by ID). Returns test name, ID, and all commands with their targets and values.
get_logs
Get recent logs from Selenix (all types). Returns 20 logs per page, most recent first. Use page parameter to paginate (0 = most recent, 1 = next 20, etc.).

get_project_info
Get metadata about the current Selenix project: name, base URL, test count, suite count.
get_screenshot
Capture a screenshot of the active browser window in Selenix playback. Returns a base64-encoded JPEG image.
get_search_html
Search page HTML by regex pattern and return surrounding HTML context for matches.
get_selected_command_info
Get comprehensive context about a command target element: DOM hierarchy, accessibility info, surrounding HTML, interactive properties.
get_step_results
Get pass/fail/error results for each command in the last test run.
get_test_by_name
Get a specific test by its name, including all commands.
get_test_list
List all tests in the current Selenix project with their IDs, names, and command counts.
get_workspace_context
Get a summary of the current Selenix workspace: project name, active test, test count, selected command count.
run_testwrite action
Run a test and wait for it to complete. Returns the pass/fail result for each command. This operation may take up to 2 minutes.

How Selenix compares

Against every graded Scraping and browsing MCP server, from our own scans and uptime checks. Updated after each scan run.

Safety score: 58/100; higher than 13% of 866 Scraping and browsing servers
Tools: 18; the typical Scraping and browsing server has 6
Tools that change things: 6%; typical: 0%. Fewer write tools means less an agent can break
GitHub stars: 1; more than 50% of 583 Scraping and browsing servers
Downloads a week: 47; more than 31% of 309 Scraping and browsing servers with a package

Selenix MCP Server

Connect Claude Desktop to Selenix via the Model Context Protocol. Chat with Claude to create, run, debug, and manage browser automation tests — just like using the built-in AI Assistant, but powered by Claude.

Prerequisites

Selenix desktop app installed
Claude Desktop installed
Node.js 18 or later

Enable the Bridge in Selenix

Before using any setup method below, enable the bridge inside Selenix:

Open Selenix
Go to System Settings (gear icon in the sidebar)
Scroll to the MCP Server section
Set Enable MCP Server to Yes

This starts a local bridge server that the MCP server connects to.

Setup

Choose one of the following methods:

Option A: Install via npm (recommended)

npm install -g @selenix/mcp-server

Then find your global npm path:

npm root -g

Open your Claude Desktop config file:

Windows: Press Win+R, paste %APPDATA%\Claude\claudedesktopconfig.json, press Enter
macOS: Open ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claudedesktopconfig.json

Add the Selenix MCP server, replacing the path with the output from npm root -g:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "selenix": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["<npm-root-path>/@selenix/mcp-server/dist/bundle.js"]
    }
  }
}

Example (Windows with nvm):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "selenix": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["C:/Users/YourName/AppData/Local/nvm/v18.20.8/node_modules/@selenix/mcp-server/dist/bundle.js"]
    }
  }
}

Example (macOS/Linux):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "selenix": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/usr/local/lib/node_modules/@selenix/mcp-server/dist/bundle.js"]
    }
  }
}

If you already have other MCP servers configured, add "selenix" alongside them inside the existing "mcpServers" object.

Option B: Use the bundled version (no npm required)

If you installed Selenix as a desktop app, the MCP server is already bundled. No need to install anything — just point Claude Desktop to the bundled file.

Find your Selenix install folder and look for resources/mcp-server/index.js, then add to your Claude Desktop config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "selenix": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["C:/path/to/Selenix/resources/mcp-server/index.js"]
    }
  }
}

Typical Windows path:

C:/Users/YourName/AppData/Local/Programs/Selenix/resources/mcp-server/index.js

Option C: Manual download

Download bundle.js from the npm package page or from the releases page
Save it somewhere on your machine (e.g., C:/selenix-mcp/bundle.js)
Add to your Claude Desktop config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "selenix": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["C:/selenix-mcp/bundle.js"]
    }
  }
}

Node.js is still required — the MCP server is a single JavaScript file with no other dependencies.

Verify

Restart Claude Desktop after editing the config. You should see the Selenix tools icon (hammer) in the chat input area.

Try asking Claude:

"What tests are in my Selenix project?"
"Create a test that opens google.com and searches for 'selenium automation'"
"Run the current test and fix any failures"
"Take a screenshot of the browser"

Selenix: common questions

Is Selenix MCP server safe?: With care: it is graded C, so read the findings first (58/100). Read the Selenix safety report
How do I install Selenix?: It runs on your machine. Copy the Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code or Claude Desktop config from the install section.
Does Selenix need an API key?: Yes. The registry entry asks for YOUR_API_KEY.
Is Selenix maintained?: The last commit was 231 days ago (2026-03-18). The latest release is v1.0.7.
What can I use instead of Selenix?: Servers from other publishers that do the same job: CloakBrowser MCP server, NexusBrowser MCP server and GrowBlocks Dev Kit MCP server.
How does Selenix compare with other Scraping and browsing MCP servers?: safety score 58/100 (higher than 13% of 866 Scraping and browsing servers); tools 18 (the typical Scraping and browsing server has 6); tools that change things 6% (typical: 0%. Fewer write tools means less an agent can break). Full comparison.
