I have been using Chrome's official MCP devtools server since Nov 2025.
https://github.com/ChromeDevTools/chrome-devtools-mcp
Before that I used Chrome web drivers but MCP is faster and more capable.
I also instruct LLMs to test my pages on Firefox using its official MCP to make sure they work in Firefox too:
https://github.com/mozilla/firefox-devtools-mcp
Now I will add Safari to the compatibility tests. cool
I'd personally suggest Playwright-CLI: https://github.com/microsoft/playwright-cli
It works much faster for me than the MCP servers I tried.
Also, spel (https://github.com/Blockether/spel) for persistent browser sessions (through a daemon) and Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit engines.
But does Apple really care about web developers?
How do you test on Safari if you don’t have Apple devices?
How difficult can it be for Apple to make barebones virtual machines with just Safaris?
Even in the Chrome hegemony you don't want to be missing Edge and many others, so you test chromium.
Similarly, while not perfect you can test WebKit, and if you like, on Linux or Windows, for example:
https://orionbrowser.com/platforms/linux
Apple wouldn't be in the business of VMs with Safari, but if you're looking for MacOS VMs, turn to a CSP: https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/mac/
Many have software testing orchestration pre-wired.
I know of the solutions. I use a few of them.
I have multiple Playwright webkits on both Windows and Linux. I have Epiphany on Linux (not 100% same webkit). I have subscriptions for testing on real hardware.
This is why it seems to me that Apple does not really care about web developers.
I wonder if it supports Private Relay. Private Relay is great for getting around scraping blocks because they explicitly whitelist apple private Relay ips.
Should do. Private relay really would be a sweet alternative to residential scraping proxies, but I’d expect sites to put in additionally checks and captchas before too long.
Which sites explicitly whitelist Private Relay IPs?
https://developer.apple.com/icloud/prepare-your-network-for-... has a guide for web server operators, including a GeoIP CSV which could conceivably be used for whitelisting. More concerning is that they're plugging private access tokens there, which allows Apple to vouch that you're a human running their hardware.
so it's a crossover of dev tools and LLM? sounds sane enough i'd say
Does this support mobile simulator safari too

Building something similar for Chrome and Firefox browsers: https://github.com/DO-SAY-GO/WebCLI - a CLI not MCP. Tho am considering MCP for distribution, even tho agents love the CLI and the proof demos speak for themselves.
The reason I did not include Safari was there wasn't enough parity between its Safaridriver surface and what Bidi/CDP give now. Safari is doing Bidi tho, iirc. So ...soon perhaps. ;) ;p xx ;p
Not really sure why your project needs to be so… edgy?
Marketing iterations. Plus dang downweighted my posts after I got the biggest Show HN of last year, so I'm trying harder to get attn. HN maybe isn't the big launch - but it's kinda a legacy thing for me. Can't blame a guy for tryin
