@feedthrough/mcp

@feedthrough/mcp

feedthrough.dev · npm · GitHub

The MCP server for Feedthrough. Runs a WebSocket server that the browser bridge connects to, and exposes all bridge capabilities as MCP tools over stdio.

Usage

# via npx (once published)
npx @feedthrough/mcp

# from the monorepo
node packages/mcp/dist/index.js

Set FEEDTHROUGH_PORT to override the default WebSocket port (8765).

MCP client config

Add to .claude/settings.json or ~/.claude.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "feedthrough": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@feedthrough/mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Tools

Tool	Input	Description
get_instructions	—	Usage guide: recommended workflow, tool ordering, selector tips
click	selector: string	Click a DOM element
fill	selector: string, value: string	Type into an input
hover	selector: string	Fire mouseover/mouseenter
press_key	selector: string, key: string	Dispatch a key press (Enter, Escape, Tab, arrows, or a character)
inspect_element	selector: string, properties?: string[]	Full element details — tag, attributes, bounding rect + inViewport, curated computed styles, live form state; properties reads extra CSS props by name
query_dom	selector: string	All matching elements, summarised
get_console_logs	limit?, levels?, match?, since?	Console output across every method, plus uncaught errors & promise rejections; filter by levels/match/since
get_network_requests	filter?, since?	Fetch + XHR with headers and request/response bodies (10 KB cap); narrow by filter or since
get_html	selector: string	Raw outerHTML of a region (capped at 50 KB)
get_page_info	—	URL, title, readyState, viewport, scroll, user agent
connection_status	—	Whether a browser is currently connected
set_style	selector: string, properties: Record<string,string>	Preview a visual fix — set inline CSS live (not saved to source)
set_attribute	selector: string, name: string, value: string | null	Preview an attribute change (toggle disabled, swap class, aria-*); null removes
set_text	selector: string, text: string	Preview wording/label changes — replace an element's text
reset_overrides	—	Undo every live set_style / set_attribute / set_text change

set_style / set_attribute / set_text are live previews, not saved edits — they mutate the running DOM only and reset on reload. Framework-owned text/attributes may be overwritten on the next render; the tool result flags this.

Architecture

AI agent  ──stdio──  @feedthrough/mcp  ──ws://localhost:8765──  @feedthrough/core (browser)

Multiple browser tabs can be connected at once; commands are routed to the most recently active tab, and connection_status lists them all. Commands are sent with unique IDs and matched to responses with a 10-second timeout. All debug output goes to stderr so stdout stays clean for the MCP protocol.
