Before you install Electron MCP Server

AgenticMart scanned Electron MCP Server on Nov 5, 2026 with automated checks for hidden code, known-malicious packages, leaked secrets and vulnerable dependencies. The result covers one commit under our scan policy, so review what access you give it and check any advisories shown here.

What it can access

An MCP server is a program your AI app starts and talks to. A local one runs with your user's permissions: it can see the files, environment variables and network your account can.
Based on its description and topics, it likely needs to control a web browser (visit sites, fill in and submit forms).

Before you install

Run it in a separate browser profile without your logged-in accounts.
Pin the version you reviewed instead of always installing the latest release.
Read the tool list or scripts before the first run, and keep approval prompts on for actions that write, send or delete.

Tools Electron MCP Server exposes (111)

Listed by the server itself during our scan of commit 15f89d2.

start_app
Start an Electron application with remote debugging enabled. Example: {"appPath":"D:/apps/my-electron-app","debugPort":9222}
attach
Attach to an already-running Electron/Chromium app that was started with --remote-debugging-port. Example: {"debugPort":9222}
attach_by_pid
Attach to a running Electron app by PID. Resolves the remote-debugging port from process arguments. App must have been started with --remote-debugging-port.
find_apps
Scan running OS processes for Electron apps. Returns PID, command, and any detected --remote-debugging-port / --inspect ports. Use to find targets for attach or attach_by_pid.
discover_apps
Scan a local port range (default: 9222-9235) for reachable Chrome DevTools Protocol endpoints. Useful when an app was started with an unknown debug port.
stop_app
Stop a process started by start_app, or detach bookkeeping for an attached session
list_apps
List Electron applications managed or attached by this server
diagnose
Summarize process health: debug port reachability, target roles (page/worker/browser), recent console errors, and discovered local debug ports
doctor
Local environment health check: package/node/platform, Electron binary, env flags, managed process count, optional free-port sample (localhost bind only)
get_logs
Get captured stdout/stderr logs for a managed Electron process
get_console_messages
Get buffered page console/log/exception messages captured via CDP
list_targets
List Chrome DevTools Protocol targets with role classification (page/worker/browser/other)
evaluate
Evaluate JavaScript in an Electron target via CDP Runtime.evaluate. Defaults to the first page/renderer target.
screenshot
Capture a PNG/JPEG screenshot of a page target via Page.captureScreenshot (optional CSS selector clips to element bounds)
save_screenshot
Capture a screenshot and write it to a local file path (PNG/JPEG); optional selector clips to element
get_dom
Read documentElement.outerHTML or a specific element's outerHTML
query_selector
Query DOM nodes with document.querySelectorAll and return tag/id/class/text summary
reload
Reload a page target (or all page targets) in an Electron app
pause
Pause JavaScript execution on a target via Debugger.pause
resume
Resume JavaScript execution on a target via Debugger.resume
cdp_command
Execute an arbitrary Chrome DevTools Protocol method on a target (Domain.method)
page_info
Get URL, title, readyState, and userAgent for a page target
navigate
Navigate a page target to a URL (Page.navigate) and optionally wait for load
wait_for
Wait until a selector exists/hides/enables, text/URL/console matches, or node count is met
click
Click the center of a CSS selector via CDP Input.dispatchMouseEvent
hover
Move the pointer over a CSS selector (mouseover / hover menus). Does not click.
scroll
Scroll the page or an element. With a selector and no deltas, scrolls that element into view. With deltaY/deltaX, sends a mouse wheel at the element (or the viewport).
drag
Press on fromSelector, move to toSelector, and release. Also sends an HTML5 drag with text/plain dataTransfer so drop listeners receive the payload. Pass data to override the source text.
type_text
Type text into the focused element (optionally click a selector first)
press_key
Press a key or shortcut (Enter, Escape, Tab, Arrow*, or a character) with optional modifiers
set_console_live
Enable/disable live MCP log notifications for console events (all levels when enabled; errors always notify)
get_cookies
Read cookies for the page (optionally filtered by URL)
set_cookie
Set a cookie on the page (provide url or domain; defaults to current location.href). file:// pages usually reject cookies unless you pass an http(s) url or domain.
delete_cookie
Delete a cookie by name. Provide url or domain, same as set_cookie. Defaults url to the page location.
get_storage
Read localStorage or sessionStorage key/value pairs from the page
set_storage
Write localStorage or sessionStorage entries (optionally clear first)
clear_buffers
Clear buffered console messages, network events, process logs, ipc, and/or audits
snapshot
Accessibility tree snapshot (roles/names) via CDP Accessibility.getFullAXTree — agent-friendly UI map
vision
One-shot app state: screenshot + page_info + recent console errors + network failures + windows
highlight
Scroll a CSS selector into view and paint a CDP overlay highlight (auto-hides when durationMs > 0)
