Comet MCP – Give Claude Code a browser that can click
Hey HN, Claude Code is pretty agentic now. It writes scripts, calls APIs, uses CLIs. But when something requires actually clicking through a website, it stops and asks me to do it. Problem is, I'm often unfamiliar with these platforms myself. "Go to App Store Connect and generate a P8 key" okay but where? I end up spending 10 minutes navigating menus I've never seen before. I started delegating these tasks to Perplexity's Comet browser. It handles the clicking, returns what I need. But copy-pasting between Claude and Comet got old fast. So I built this MCP server to connect them directly.…
In plain words
Comet MCP is a tool that connects Claude Code with Perplexity's Comet browser, enabling Claude to interact with websites that lack APIs. When Claude encounters a task requiring website navigation and clicking—such as retrieving app IDs from dashboards or generating keys in admin panels—it can delegate to Comet rather than stopping to ask the user. This integration eliminates manual copy-pasting between tools and helps developers complete web-based workflows that normally interrupt automation.

Hey HN, Claude Code is pretty agentic now. It writes scripts, calls APIs, uses CLIs. But when something requires actually clicking through a website, it stops and asks me to do it. Problem is, I'm often unfamiliar with these platforms myself. "Go to App Store Connect and generate a P8 key" okay but where? I end up spending 10 minutes navigating menus I've never seen before. I started delegating these tasks to Perplexity's Comet browser. It handles the clicking, returns what I need. But copy-pasting between Claude and Comet got old fast. So I built this MCP server to connect them directly. Now when Claude needs to interact with a website that has no API, it can just ask Comet to handle it. Examples: - Grab my app ID from RevenueCat dashboard - Generate a P8 key in App Store Connect - Navigate admin panels behind login walls I tried Playwright MCP but having Claude do the clicking itself overwhelms the context window. Comet's agentic browsing just works better in my experience. Comet doesn't have an API, so this uses CDP to communicate with it directly.

Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
