Frequently Asked Questions

What is MCP Server Browserbase?

What tools does MCP Server Browserbase provide?

MCP Server Browserbase provides 9 tools including browserbase_session_create, browserbase_session_close, browserbase_stagehand_navigate, browserbase_stagehand_act. Each tool can be called by AI agents to perform specific operations.

Is MCP Server Browserbase safe to use?

We cannot tell you that, and nobody scanning at this scale can. What we did in March 2026 was shallow-clone MCP Server Browserbase and run five keyword searches over its source: auth identifiers, CORS configuration, rate-limit identifiers, the dependency manifest against a hardcoded list of 18 known-vulnerable packages, and unguarded eval/exec calls. At least one matched — the specific finding is in the scan report on this page. A text search cannot follow a variable, judge intent, or tell you what a server does once it is running, so "nothing matched" is not "safe". What the scan does and does not cover is written out at /mcp/security.
