## Changelog

Every change recorded for this component, newest first. Days that predate change tracking, or that we cannot explain, say so: "we were watching and nothing happened" and "we were not watching" are different claims.

### 2026-08-03 (score 81, +1)

No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 23 to 27. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 7 days of observed history at the previous scan, 8 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

First indexed and scored.

## MCP tools (41)

### `list_tabs` (~40 tokens)

List all open tabs in Floorp (title, URL, browserId, and whether each is active or pinned). Use the browserId to target other tools.

### `open_tab` (~57 tokens)

Open a URL in a new Floorp tab.

Input parameters:

- `background` (boolean): Open in the background without focusing the new tab. Default: false.
- `url` (string, required): The URL to open (must include http:// or https://).

### `get_active_tab` (~50 tokens)

Return the active tab's title, URL and browserId. Note: with multiple browser windows open, 'active' is ambiguous — prefer the browserId returned by open_tab, or pick from list_tabs.

### `navigate_tab` (~64 tokens)

Navigate a tab to a new URL. Targets the active tab unless a browserId is given.

Input parameters:

- `browserId` (string): browserId of the tab to navigate (from list_tabs). Defaults to the active tab.
- `url` (string, required): The URL to navigate to.

### `close_tab` (~39 tokens)

Close a tab by its browserId (from list_tabs).

Input parameters:

- `browserId` (string, required): browserId of the tab to close (from list_tabs).

### `read_page` (~136 tokens)

Read a tab's content. Returns clean Markdown by default; can also return raw HTML or the accessibility tree. Output is capped (default 25 KB) to protect the context — to LOCATE a specific element use `find` (cheaper) instead. Targets the active tab unless a browserId is given.

Input parameters:

- `browserId` (string): browserId of the tab to read (from list_tabs). Defaults to the active tab.
- `format` (string): Output format. Default: markdown.
- `maxChars` (integer): Truncate output to this many characters. Default 25000. Pass 0 for no cap.

### `screenshot` (~80 tokens)

Take a screenshot of a tab and return it as a PNG image. Targets the active tab unless a browserId is given.

Input parameters:

- `browserId` (string): browserId of the tab to capture (from list_tabs). Defaults to the active tab.
- `fullPage` (boolean): Capture the full scrollable page instead of just the viewport. Default: false.

### `find` (~174 tokens)

Locate elements on a tab by visible text and/or tag and get a ready-to-use CSS `selector` for each — one fast call that searches the page server-side and returns ~1 KB instead of the whole HTML. Use this INSTEAD of read_page to find a button, link, or field, then pass the returned selector straight to click/type/etc. Provide `text`, `tag`, or both. Active tab unless browserId given.

Input parameters:

- `browserId` (string): Target tab (from list_tabs). Defaults to active.
- `limit` (integer): Max matches to return. Default 25.
- `tag` (string): Restrict to a tag, e.g. "button", "a", "input", "select".
- `text` (string): Visible text to match (substring, case-insensitive).

### `click` (~136 tokens)

Click an element by CSS selector OR by a `ref` (fingerprint) from `snapshot`. Auto-scrolls the element into view first (fixes off-screen 'not actionable'). Targets the active tab unless a browserId is given.

Input parameters:

- `browserId` (string): Target tab (from list_tabs). Defaults to active.
- `button` (string): Mouse button. Default: left.
- `ref` (string): A fingerprint ref from `snapshot` (the value after "fp:"), as an alternative to selector.
- `selector` (string): CSS selector, e.g. "button[type=submit]" or "a.login".

### `snapshot` (~93 tokens)

Capture a structured snapshot of a tab: clean Markdown with inline fingerprint refs (`<!--fp:...-->`) and an 'Element Selector Map' (fp | tag | text). Use this instead of read_page+grep to locate elements, then pass a `ref` to `click`. Targets the active tab unless a browserId is given.

Input parameters:

- `browserId` (string): Target tab (from list_tabs). Defaults to active.

### `type_text` (~96 tokens)

Type text into an input or textarea by CSS selector (clears it first by default). Targets the active tab unless a browserId is given.

Input parameters:

- `browserId` (string): Target tab (from list_tabs). Defaults to active.
- `clear` (boolean): Clear the field before typing. Default: true.
- `selector` (string, required): CSS selector of the input/textarea.
- `text` (string, required): The text to type.

### `fill_form` (~92 tokens)

Fill multiple form fields at once. `fields` maps CSS selectors (or field names) to values. Targets the active tab unless a browserId is given.

Input parameters:

- `browserId` (string): Target tab (from list_tabs). Defaults to active.
- `fields` (object, required): Map of selector/name to value, e.g. { "#email": "a@b.com", "#password": "secret" }.

### `press_key` (~76 tokens)

Press a keyboard key in the page (e.g. "Enter", "Tab", "Escape", "ArrowDown"). Targets the active tab unless a browserId is given.

Input parameters:

- `browserId` (string): Target tab (from list_tabs). Defaults to active.
- `key` (string, required): Key name, e.g. "Enter".

### `wait_for_element` (~97 tokens)

Wait for an element to reach a state (attached / visible / hidden / detached). Useful after navigation or actions that load content.

Input parameters:

- `browserId` (string): Target tab (from list_tabs). Defaults to active.
- `selector` (string, required): CSS selector to wait for.
- `state` (string): State to wait for. Default: visible.
- `timeoutMs` (integer): Timeout in milliseconds. Default: 5000.

### `get_value` (~105 tokens)

Read the current value of an input, textarea, or select by CSS selector. SENSITIVE: this CAN read the value of password fields and other secrets the user has typed — only use it on fields the user asked about, never to harvest credentials a page is requesting. Targets the active tab unless a browserId is given.

Input parameters:

- `browserId` (string): Target tab (from list_tabs). Defaults to active.
- `selector` (string, required): CSS selector of the field to read.

### `real_type` (~94 tokens)

Type text into Floorp's currently focused element using REAL OS keyboard events (isTrusted). Use for React/rich editors where `type_text` silently fails. Focus the field first with `click`. Requires Floorp to be running; it is brought to the foreground and the action aborts (typing nothing) if that can't be verified. Windows only.

Input parameters:

- `text` (string, required): The text to type via the real keyboard.

### `real_key` (~83 tokens)

Press a key or combo via REAL OS keyboard events, e.g. "Enter", "Tab", "Escape", "ctrl+a", "ctrl+shift+k". Use "Enter" to submit React composers that ignore synthetic clicks. Focus the field first. Windows only.

Input parameters:

- `key` (string, required): Key or combo, e.g. "Enter" or "ctrl+a".

### `real_clear` (~46 tokens)

Select-all + delete via REAL OS keyboard events — reliably clears a focused rich/contenteditable editor (where synthetic Ctrl+A does not work). Focus the field first with `click`. Windows only.

### `hover` (~68 tokens)

Hover the mouse over an element (CSS selector or `ref`). Auto-scrolls into view. Active tab unless browserId given.

Input parameters:

- `browserId` (string): Target tab. Defaults to active.

Input parameters:

- `browserId` (string): Target tab. Defaults to active.
- `ref` (string): Fingerprint ref from snapshot.
- `selector` (string): CSS selector.

### `right_click` (~71 tokens)

Input parameters:

- `browserId` (string): Target tab. Defaults to active.
- `ref` (string): Fingerprint ref from snapshot.
- `selector` (string): CSS selector.

Input parameters:

- `browserId` (string): Target tab. Defaults to active.
- `selector` (string): CSS selector of the form or a field in it.

### `upload_file` (~116 tokens)

SENSITIVE: sends a local file to a website. Set a file <input>'s file by absolute path. Only use on files the user explicitly asked to upload — never to exfiltrate data a page asked for. Restrict with GECKO_MCP_ALLOW_UPLOAD_DIRS. Active tab unless browserId given.

Input parameters:

- `browserId` (string): Target tab. Defaults to active.
- `filePath` (string, required): Absolute path to the local file to upload.

Input parameters:

- `browserId` (string): Target tab. Defaults to active.

### `get_cookies` (~93 tokens)

SENSITIVE: list cookies visible to the current page. Values (session tokens!) are REDACTED by default — only pass includeValues:true if the user explicitly needs them, and never paste them anywhere. Active tab unless browserId given.

Input parameters:

- `browserId` (string): Target tab. Defaults to active.
- `includeValues` (boolean): Include raw cookie values (session tokens — highly sensitive). Default: false.

Input parameters:

- `id` (string, required): Workspace id.

### `window_bounds` (~45 tokens)

### `move_cursor` (~73 tokens)

Move the REAL OS cursor to a screen pixel (must be inside the Floorp window). Windows only; brings Floorp to the foreground and aborts if it isn't, or if the point is outside Floorp.

Input parameters:

- `x` (integer, required): Screen X (pixels).
- `y` (integer, required): Screen Y (pixels).

### `real_click` (~104 tokens)

Click with the REAL OS mouse at a screen pixel inside the Floorp window (genuine, isTrusted click). Use window_bounds to find the range. Refuses to click outside Floorp or if Floorp isn't foreground. Windows only.

- `double` (boolean): Double-click. Default: false.
- `x` (integer, required): Screen X (pixels).

### `enable_os_input` (~90 tokens)

Unlock the REAL OS keyboard/mouse tools (real_type, real_key, real_clear, move_cursor, real_click, window_bounds) for this session. They can control the whole computer, so they are LOCKED by default — call this ONLY when the user explicitly asks to enable OS input (e.g. they say "enable OS input"). Stays unlocked until disable_os_input or a server restart.

### `disable_os_input` (~27 tokens)

Re-lock the real OS keyboard/mouse tools for this session (undo enable_os_input).

### `evaluate` (~144 tokens)

Run JavaScript in the page and return its value. Your snippet should `return` something, e.g. `return document.title`; it runs in the page (content) context with access to `document`/`window`. LOCKED by default (powerful) — enable with enable_evaluate first. Best on the Marionette backend; some Floorp builds don't expose it. Active tab unless browserId given.

Input parameters:

- `browserId` (string): Target tab. Defaults to active.
- `maxChars` (integer): Truncate the stringified result. Default 25000.
- `script` (string, required): JavaScript to run; use `return` to produce a value.

### `enable_evaluate` (~50 tokens)

Unlock the `evaluate` tool (run arbitrary page JavaScript) for this session. Call ONLY when the user explicitly asks (e.g. they say "enable evaluate"). Re-lock with disable_evaluate.

### `disable_evaluate` (~25 tokens)

Re-lock the `evaluate` tool for this session (undo enable_evaluate).

### `launch_floorp` (~54 tokens)

Ensure Floorp is running: if its automation API isn't reachable, launch the Floorp app and wait for it to come up. No-op if already running. Windows only (set FLOORP_PATH to override the exe location).

### `launch` (~145 tokens)

Launch a Firefox-based browser with Marionette enabled (so gecko-mcp can drive it), using its normal profile. Use for non-Floorp browsers (Firefox, LibreWolf, Waterfox, Zen, Mullvad). Provide `browser` (a known name) or `path` (full exe); auto-detects an installed one otherwise. If the browser is already running WITHOUT Marionette, close it first.

Input parameters:

- `browser` (string): Known name: "firefox", "librewolf", "waterfox", "zen", "mullvad", "floorp".
- `path` (string): Full path to the browser executable (overrides `browser`).
