Hyperbrowser MCP Server – Connect AI agents to the web through browsers

Hi HN! Excited to share our MCP Server at Hyperbrowser - something we’ve been working on for a few days. We think it’s a pretty neat way to connect LLMs and IDEs like Cursor / Windsurf to the internet. Our MCP server exposes seven tools for data collection and browsing: 1. `scrape_webpage` - Extract formatted (markdown, screenshot etc) content from any webpage 2. `crawl_webpages` - Navigate through multiple linked pages and extract LLM-friendly formatted content 3. `extract_structured_data` - Convert messy HTML into structured JSON 4. `search_with_bing` - Query the web and get results…

In plain words

Hyperbrowser MCP Server is a tool that connects AI language models and code editors like Cursor and Windsurf to the internet through browser automation. It provides seven functions for web interaction, including webpage scraping, multi-page crawling, structured data extraction, web search via Bing, and browser automation using different AI agents. The server converts web content into formats that AI systems can understand and work with.

Hi HN! Excited to share our MCP Server at Hyperbrowser - something we’ve been working on for a few days. We think it’s a pretty neat way to connect LLMs and IDEs like Cursor / Windsurf to the internet. Our MCP server exposes seven tools for data collection and browsing: 1. `scrape_webpage` - Extract formatted (markdown, screenshot etc) content from any webpage 2. `crawl_webpages` - Navigate through multiple linked pages and extract LLM-friendly formatted content 3. `extract_structured_data` - Convert messy HTML into structured JSON 4. `search_with_bing` - Query the web and get results with Bing search 5. `browser_use_agent` - Fast, lightweight browser automation with the Browser Use agent 6. `openai_computer_use_agent` - General-purpose automation using OpenAI’s CUA model 7. `claude_computer_use_agent` - Complex browser tasks using Claude computer use You can connect the server to Cursor, Windsurf, Claude desktop, and any other MCP clients with this command `npx -y hyperbrowser-mcp` and a Hyperbrowser API key. We're running this on our cloud browser infrastructure that we've been developing for the past few months – it handles captchas, proxies, and stealth browsing automatically. Some fun things you can do with it: (1) deep research with claude desktop, (2) summarizing the latest HN posts, (3) creating full applications from short gists in Cursor, (3) automating code review in cursor, (4) generating llms.txt for any website with windsurf, (5) ordering sushi from windsurf (admittedly, this is just for fun - probably not actually going to do this myself). We're building this server in the open and would love feedback from anyone building agents or working with web automation. If you find bugs or have feature requests, please let us know! One big issue with MCPs in general is that the installation UX sucks and auth credentials have to be hardcoded. We don’t have a solution to this right now but Anthropic seems to be working on something here so excited for that to come out. Love to hear any other complaints / thoughts you have about the server itself, Hyperbrowser, or the installation experience.

  • I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

  • Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…
