Overview

What is MCP? The Model Context Protocol (MCP) allows Claude, Cursor, and other AI assistant systems to access external tools and data sources through specialized servers, breaking free from their inherent limitations. At Notte, we’ve developed an MCP server implementation focused specifically on browser control, enabling you to ask Claude or Cursor to act on your behalf on the web directly from the chat interface.

Notte-MCP: Browser Control for AI Agents

Notte-MCP The Notte-MCP implementation directly mirrors the Notte API offering. With Notte-MCP, LLM systems can extend their capabilities to browser control, solving even complex tasks:
  • Enhanced coding assistance through real-time documentation access
  • Access Stack Overflow answers and Hacker News discussions
  • Automated form completion for repetitive tasks with built-in authentication
  • Download files and resources from specified websites
  • Data collection from websites without available APIs
  • Streamlined research workflows with AI-assisted browsing
