Chrome DevTools MCP
Use the official Chrome DevTools MCP server when Chrome DevTools context matters more than generic browser automation.
Use This Skill or Another One?
| Testing job | Use this skill? | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Live logged-in Chrome session | Yes | Attach to the real Chrome context the user already has open |
| DevTools-selected element inspection | Yes | The selected element comes from DevTools, not generic page automation |
| Chrome console / network debugging | Yes | These are DevTools-native workflows |
| Lighthouse / performance / memory in Chrome | Yes | These require Chrome DevTools tooling |
| Routine Chrome form flow, screenshots, scraping | No — use agent-browser |
Faster and simpler for Chromium automation |
| Firefox / WebKit / Edge / cross-browser testing | No — use playwright-mcp |
That skill is for browser-engine coverage |
