Very cool! The more I play with it, the more use cases come to mind. I was expecting way higher token usage for something driving a full UI because I always have this problem with Playwright MCP on browser, but this seems well optimized. Honestly feels like a killer app for automation.

Thank you! I worked super hard to keep the token usage as low as possible. It's also possible to drive mobile browsers via the MCP, although I really tested only chrome, I have done a bunch of optimization for token usage also on that front but never pushed the testing too much further, if you want to experiment and provide feedback I will be more than happy to check things out!
