I've come to the same conclusion as op, created a CLI tool to work with Chrome sessions. It works well, and I'm planning to do some token comparison on this vs an MCP approach. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47207790

Neato! https://github.com/vercel-labs/agent-browser is a similar take here, and much better than the playwright MCP.

It does so many things though, very similar in the core though. I'm wondering what the token counts will be when I compare. Also the agent browser seems to support other browsers too, I only when with chromium
