  To use WebMCP, you need: - Chrome: Version 146.0.7672.0 or higher, which means a next release. - Flags: The "WebMCP for testing" flag must be enabled. What is WebMCP? WebMCP is a proposed web standard that exposes structured tools for AI agents on existing websites. This would replace "screen-scraping" with robust, high-performance page interaction and knowledge retrieval.

  Some people say WebMCP is a direct solution for slow inaccurate crawlers. WebMCP is not designed for that use-case. WebMCP is designed for website owners to open direct access to agents by embedding MCP tools onto their own websites. People use browser agents for adversarial operations; data extraction from competitors' websites, etc. Those cases are not solvable with WebMCP.
