  "why_included": "Google's MCP server gives agents a live Chrome: 62+ tools for input, network inspection, performance traces, and console debugging. One npx line wires it into Claude Code or Cursor.",
  "summary": "**The gist** The Chrome team's MCP server lets a coding agent drive and inspect a live Chrome instance: **62+ tools** across **nine categories**, including input automation, network inspection, **performance traces**, console and script debugging, and heap snapshots. Setup is one MCP entry pointing at **npx chrome-devtools-mcp@latest**; a slim mode covers basic browsing tasks.",
  "practical_implication": "**Why it matters** This closes the loop for frontend agent work: instead of guessing from code, your agent can reproduce a bug, read the **console and network requests**, record a **performance trace**, and verify the fix in the actual browser — the feedback layer most agent setups are missing.",
