This repository implements an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that exposes Chrome DevTools capabilities as tools for AI coding assistants. In production, it launches a headless or headed Chrome browser via Puppeteer, connects to the DevTools frontend SDK, and provides over 50 tools covering navigation, input automation, network inspection, performance tracing, heap snapshot analysis, CSS inspection, accessibility auditing (via Lighthouse), PWA management, and extension debugging. The architecture is a Node.js server that runs either as a long-lived daemon (Unix socket IPC) or as a CLI tool, with a configuration pipeline supporting CLI flags, config files, and environment variables. Key entry points are `src/bin/chrome-devtools-mcp.ts` (MCP server) and `src/bin/chrome-devtools.ts` (standalone CLI). Data flows involve collecting console messages, network requests, and DevTools issues per page via `PageCollector`, processing performance traces via `ChunkedTraceParser` and `PerformanceTrace`, and formatting results through specialized formatters (`ConsoleFormatter`, `CssFormatter`, `HeapSnapshotFormatter`, etc.) that support both text and structured JSON output. External dependencies include Puppeteer for browser control, the DevTools frontend SDK for advanced features (heap snapshots, stack traces), Lighthouse for audits, and a telemetry system (Clearcut) for usage statistics.
