Good to see. Google only has this feature in experimental mode for $125/month subscribers: https://labs.google.com/mariner/landing

Google allows AI browser automation through Gemini CLI as well, but it's not interactive and doesn't have ready access to the main browser profile.

Chrome's DevTools MCP has been excellent in my experience for web development and testing. Claude code can jump in there and just pretend to be a user and do just about everything, including reading console output.

I'm not using it for the use case of actually interacting with other people's websites, but for this purpose, it's been fantastic.

I've been wondering if it was a good replacement for the playwright mcp, at least for chrome-only testing.

After a lot of trouble trying to get playwright mcp to work on Linux, I'm curious if this works better
