 The Playwright MCP Chrome Extension allows you to connect to existing browser tabs and leverage your logged-in sessions and browser state. See [extension/README.md](extension/README.md) for installation and setup instructions.

+### Initial state
+
+There are multiple ways to provide the initial state to the browser context or a page.
+
+For the storage state, you can either:
+- Start with a user data directory using the `--user-data-dir` argument. This will persist all browser data between the sessions.
+- Start with a storage state file using the `--storage-state` argument. This will load cookies and local storage from the file into an isolated browser context.
+
+For the page state, you can use:
+
+- `--init-page` to point to a TypeScript file that will be evaluated on the Playwright page object. This allows you to run arbitrary code to set up the page.
+
+```ts
+// init-page.ts
+export default async ({ page }) => {
+  await page.context().grantPermissions(['geolocation']);
+  await page.context().setGeolocation({ latitude: 37.7749, longitude: -122.4194 });
+  await page.setViewportSize({ width: 1280, height: 720 });
+};
+```
+
+- `--init-script` to point to a JavaScript file that will be added as an initialization script. The script will be evaluated in every page before any of the page's scripts.
+This is useful for overriding browser APIs or setting up the environment.
+
+```js
+// init-script.js
+window.isPlaywrightMCP = true;
+```

 When the LLM interacts with the browser for the first time, it will load a page where you can select which browser tab the LLM will connect to. This allows you to control which specific page the AI assistant will interact with during the session.

+### Bypassing the Connection Approval Dialog
+
+By default, you'll need to approve each connection when the MCP server tries to connect to your browser. To bypass this approval dialog and allow automatic connections, you can use an authentication token.
+
+#### Using Your Unique Authentication Token
+
+1. After installing the extension, click on the extension icon or navigate to the extension's status page
+2. Copy the `PLAYWRIGHT_MCP_EXTENSION_TOKEN` value displayed in the extension UI
+3. Add it to your MCP server configuration:
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "playwright-extension": {
+      "command": "npx",
+      "args": [
+        "@playwright/mcp@latest",
+        "--extension"
+      ],
+      "env": {
+        "PLAYWRIGHT_MCP_EXTENSION_TOKEN": "your-token-here"
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+This token is unique to your browser profile and provides secure authentication between the MCP server and the extension. Once configured, you won't need to manually approve connections each time.

Joel Verhagen	009aa9275b	Add step for publishing to MCP Registry (#1197 ) This adds a new step for the `release` event to publish to the Official MCP Registry. Summary of changes: - Add `server.json` which is the MCP Server manifest - Used metadata from the GH MCP Registry - Used the name `com.microsoft/playwright-mcp` - Add `publish-release-mcp-registry` job that runs manually - Install Microsoft Go for compliant Go crypto - Log in to Azure for Key Vault access - Publish to the MCP Registry in the `microsoft.com` namespace. - Add `mcpName` to the `package.json` which the MCP Registry validates. The publishing requires some secret variables: - `AZURE_MCP_REGISTRY_CLIENT_ID` - service principal client ID (app ID) with Get Key and Sign access to a Key Vault - `AZURE_MCP_REGISTRY_TENANT_ID` - tenant ID for the service principal (should be a production tenant) - `AZURE_MCP_REGISTRY_SUBSCRIPTION_ID` - Azure subscription ID holding the Key Vault - `KV_NAME` - the Key Vault name, e.g. `mykeyvault` - `KV_KEY_NAME` - the name of a Key in the Key Vault, needs to be ECDSA P-384. I can provide internal documentation for how to set up the service principal (managed identity is easiest), vault, and key as well as registering the key so it can be used for the `microsoft.com` namespace. Note: after the new job is proven to work as expected, we can switch it to automatically running after the `publish-release-npm` job on the `release` event.	2025-11-17 13:43:07 -08:00
