A [Model Context Protocol (MCP)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) server that provides browser automation tools powered by [Camoufox](https://camoufox.com/) — a stealthy, anti-detect browser built on Firefox. It exposes a Playwright-MCP compatible tool interface using accessibility snapshots and ref-based element targeting.

> **Think of it as [playwright-mcp](https://github.com/anthropics/playwright-mcp), but with built-in anti-detection and fingerprint spoofing.**

## Features

- **Anti-detect browser fingerprinting** — Camoufox automatically spoofs browser fingerprints to bypass bot detection
- **Ref-based accessibility snapshots** — Interact with page elements via accessibility refs, no CSS selectors needed
- **Human-like cursor movement** — Cursor humanization enabled by default for realistic interactions
- **WebRTC leak protection** — WebRTC blocked by default to prevent IP leaks
- **Persistent browser profile** — Maintain session state, cookies, and login across runs
- **GeoIP auto-matching** — Automatically match browser locale/timezone to proxy location
- **Proxy support** — Full proxy support including authentication
- **WebGL fingerprint control** — Specify WebGL vendor/renderer pair or block entirely
- **Custom addons** — Load custom Firefox addons or exclude defaults like uBlock Origin
- **Advanced fingerprint config** — Override any BrowserForge fingerprint property or use a custom fingerprint
- **Firefox preferences** — Set custom Firefox user preferences
- **Browser caching** — Optional page/request caching for performance
- **Privacy controls** — Block WebGL and image loading to reduce leaks and bandwidth
- **Multi-tab management** — Create, close, select, and list browser tabs
- **Modal & dialog handling** — Handle JavaScript dialogs and file choosers
- **Console & network monitoring** — Inspect console messages and network requests

```

### Use with Codex CLI

Add to `codex.json` or pass via CLI:

```bash
codex --mcp-server "npx @anthropic-ai/mcp-proxy -- uvx camoufox-mcp-python"
```

### Pin a specific version

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "camoufox": {

| `--addons <paths>` | Paths to extracted Firefox addons (repeatable, comma-separated) |
| `--exclude-addons <names>` | Default addons to exclude, e.g. `UBO` (repeatable, comma-separated) |
| `--config <json>` | Camoufox fingerprint properties as a JSON string |
| `--enable-cache` | Cache previous pages and requests (uses more memory) |
| `--firefox-user-prefs <json>` | Firefox user preferences as a JSON string |
| `--i-know-what-im-doing` | Silence Camoufox warnings for advanced configurations |

## How It Works

The server uses Camoufox (a Firefox-based anti-detect browser) through Playwright's async API. Pages are represented as accessibility snapshots in YAML format, where each interactive element is assigned a **ref** identifier. The AI model reads the snapshot, identifies the target ref, and calls the appropriate tool — no fragile CSS/XPath selectors required.

```
AI Model  ←→  MCP Server  ←→  Camoufox Browser
                  │
                  ├── Accessibility Snapshot (YAML)
                  ├── Ref-based element targeting
                  └── Anti-detect fingerprinting
```

cd camoufox-mcp
uv pip install --python .venv/bin/python -e .

# Run the server

# Or run as a module
./.venv/bin/python -m camoufox_mcp --headless

# Smoke test
