What it does

AIPex gives a coding agent access to your browser through an MCP bridge. The agent runs over stdio, the bridge talks to the extension over WebSocket, and through it a set of automation tools is available: working with tabs, history, pages and on-page actions. Data stays on your machine, and you bring your own model key. The same bridge provides a browser CLI, so the browser can be driven from scripts and from agents like Cursor, Claude Code and VS Code Copilot.

Who it is for. For developers and testers who need to automate an existing browser from an agent.

Good fit when

  • You need to drive an already open browser from an agent
  • You need tab, page and action automation without a separate browser
  • You want one bridge for agents and scripts via a CLI

Not a fit when

  • You cannot install a browser extension
  • You need isolated headless automation rather than driving your personal browser

Example request

Open these tabs, collect the needed data from them and compile it into a table

Transport
stdio
Authentication
not required

Limitations

You must install the AIPex extension in Chrome or Edge; the MCP bridge alone does not launch a browser. Automation runs in your real browser, so actions are visible and affect open sessions. You bring your own model key.

How to disable. Remove the aipex-mcp-bridge entry from your MCP client config and uninstall the AIPex extension from the browser.

FAQ

Do I need a separate browser app?

No, AIPex works in your normal browser through an extension, with no separate browser to install.

Can I drive the browser from scripts?

Yes, the bridge ships a browser CLI that talks to the same local daemon as MCP.

README in short

The README describes AIPex as an open-source browser automation tool that lives in your normal browser. For coding agents there is the aipex-mcp-bridge MCP: the agent talks over stdio to the extension over WebSocket and gets a set of browser automation tools. Data stays on the machine, and the user brings the model key. The same bridge provides a browser CLI. MIT licensed.
