Peek MCP server (rrweb-stack)

Let your AI coding agent read your recorded browser sessions and, with your OK, drive the live page.

Browser automation For it and development Browser Automation

Peek is a small helper that records what happens in your real browser and lets your AI coding agent look at those recordings. It comes from the rrweb-stack project and runs entirely on your own machine. It is handy if you are debugging a web page and want your AI assistant to see what you saw, without sending anything to a cloud service.

What is an MCP server? The 30-second version

On its own, your AI can only chat with you. An MCP server is a small helper program that gives your AI a new skill or a connection to an app or service. This one connects your AI to your recorded browser sessions, so the AI can look things up there for you when you ask. It runs locally, which means the recordings stay on your computer.

What this MCP server does

You record a browsing session with the Peek Chrome extension. The recording is saved to a small local database on your machine. When you ask your AI a question, the AI uses this helper to read that recording and answer you. If you give explicit permission for a specific site, the AI can also act on the live page, like clicking or typing, but only after you say yes.

Flow diagram: you ask your AI “List my recent browser sessions and tell me which one had errors”, on your own computer the Peek MCP server (rrweb-stack) works with your browser, and you get back answers in your chat.

Try asking your AI

“List my recent browser sessions and tell me which one had errors”
“Show me the console messages from the last session on my checkout page”
“What network requests failed in the session I recorded this morning”
“Summarize what happened in my last recorded session”

What it gives back to you

You get answers in the chat, like a summary of a session, a list of console errors, or the failed network calls. It can also show a session as formatted text you can copy. If the AI acted on a live page, it tells you what it did.

Before you start

What you need

Node.js version 22 or newer
The Peek Chrome extension installed in your browser
The Peek command-line tool installed on your computer
An AI coding agent that supports MCP, like Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, or Windsurf

Good to know

The AI can only act on a live page after you give explicit permission for that site, and destructive actions always ask first, but you should still review what it does.

Install it with your AI

Add Peek MCP server (rrweb-stack) to your AI, no technical skills needed

You don't install anything by hand. You copy one prompt, paste it into an AI that can work on your computer, and it checks, installs and connects the server for you, asking you when it needs something.

Sign in to get the install prompt

Members get a ready-made prompt that lets the Claude desktop app check Peek MCP server (rrweb-stack), install it and connect it for them, step by step. You don't need any technical skills: you copy, paste and answer a few questions. Your connected AI can also find and install any of the 4,066 MCP servers here for you.
