Let your AI agent operate any website through a real, logged-in browser session.

Overview

AI-generated overview

Remote MCP connector that lets an AI agent look up action manuals and drive your logged-in Chrome to operate websites and return finished work.

What you can do
  • Look up action manuals for websites (search, manual) so the agent knows the steps instead of parsing pages
  • Control a real Chrome session: open pages, take snapshots, click and type, including across several tabs at once
  • Work behind existing logins, using direct API calls where possible and UI automation otherwise
  • Produce deliverables such as sourced reports, clean CSVs or ready-to-send drafts
  • Reuse a saved task as a Recipe and run it again with new inputs
When to use it
Useful when you want an assistant to carry out multi-step work on websites you are already signed in to, such as pulling pricing from several sites, collecting data behind a login, or repeating a routine task across many pages.
Requirements
A remote MCP endpoint added as a connector in an MCP-compatible client, OAuth sign-in, and the Actionbook Chrome extension installed and linked from the dashboard. No CLI install is needed; the standalone CLI package is described as deprecated.
Before you install
The agent acts inside your real logged-in browser sessions, so it can read account data and click, type, submit or change things on sites you are signed in to. Review tasks before running them and be careful with anything that spends money or sends messages. Page content and task data pass through the hosted service.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Actionbook in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Connect the required credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
  3. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/app.actionbook%2Factionbook/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config. The client completes OAuth sign-in on first connect.

README

[Meet your AI Browser Coworker]

Actionbook is an AI agent in your browser. It reads data behind your logins,
operates websites you already use, and delivers finished work, not answers.

Meet the New Actionbook

Actionbook now ships as an AI agent in your Chrome side panel. It works beside you on the page you are on, reads data behind your logins, and delivers finished work, not answers: a sourced report, a clean CSV, or ready-to-send drafts. When a task works the way you want, save it as a Recipe and run it again with new inputs.

Actionbook (Legacy)

Actionbook turns the websites you work in every day into something your AI agent can actually operate. Direct API requests when possible, UI automation when not, with login handled. Fast and resilient.

Why Actionbook?

❌ Without Actionbook
  • Slow. Agents take a snapshot after every single step, parse the page, then decide what to do next. Searching one room on Airbnb takes 5 minutes.
  • Brittle. Modern websites use virtual DOMs, streaming components, and SPAs. Agents don't understand these rendering mechanisms, so they fail on dropdowns, date pickers, and login walls.
  • One at a time. Your agent finishes one page before it can start the next. Need to check 30 company websites? That's 30 rounds, one after another.
✅ With Actionbook
  • 10x faster. Action manuals tell agents exactly what to do. No parsing, no guessing.
  • Accurate. Direct API calls when possible, UI fallback when not. Login handled either way.
  • Concurrent. Stateless architecture. Operate dozens of tabs in parallel.

Installation

Actionbook runs as a remote MCP connector paired with the Actionbook Chrome extension — no CLI install required. Your AI agent connects to the hosted MCP endpoint, and the extension drives your real Chrome so agents reuse your logged-in sessions.

👉 For the full step-by-step setup — with per-client instructions and screenshots — visit the dashboard. The three steps below are the quick overview.

1. Install the Chrome extension from the Chrome Web Store.

2. Add Actionbook as a connector in your AI app. Open your app's connector settings — Claude (Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector), ChatGPT (Settings → Connectors), Perplexity, Hermes, OpenClaw, or any other MCP-compatible app — and paste the Actionbook endpoint:

https://edge.actionbook.app/mcp

3. Finish setup from the dashboard — it walks you through connecting your client and confirms the extension is linked.

Note: The standalone @actionbookdev/cli package is deprecated. Use the remote connector + Chrome extension above.

Quick Start

Once the extension is installed and your client is connected (see Installation), just talk to your agent — Actionbook handles the rest:

Open stripe.com, linear.app, and vercel.com, then grab the pricing from each.

Behind the scenes the agent uses Actionbook to fetch action manuals and operate your real Chrome — opening tabs, reading snapshots, clicking, and filling forms across pages concurrently. To nudge it explicitly, add this to your prompt:

Use Actionbook to understand and operate the web page.

Examples

Explore real-world examples in the Examples Documentation.

Available Tools

Actionbook exposes a single actionbook MCP tool whose subcommands cover action lookup (search, manual) and browser control (goto, snapshot, click, type, …). Your agent discovers the full command set from the tool description once connected.

Chrome Extension

Install the extension from the Chrome Web Store. Once you sign in from the dashboard, it connects to the hosted MCP endpoint automatically.
