This gives Claude real-time web access through a Playwright-controlled Chrome browser that you can actually see running. It's built for grabbing current info past the January 2025 knowledge cutoff: latest docs, recent news, error message lookups, that sort of thing. The architecture is surprisingly transparent with a local Express bridge server and visible browser window, which is nice for debugging. Works best with specific queries like "Next.js 15 documentation" rather than vague searches. The main gotcha is it needs Chrome installed and the bridge server running, though Electron handles the startup automatically. Outputs clean Markdown you can parse instead of raw HTML soup.
