I’m no expert here, but I understand an “MCP server” as a way to make an AI system a bit “smarter” by having more context and capabilities. I find AI coding agents pretty darn smart already particularly when they have your entire codebase and your instruction for context. But if you’re using it to build a website, it’s just gotta take your word for it if they code isn’t doing what it thinks it should be doing in the browser. By attaching chrome-devtools-mcp to the AI tool, it can load up the site and get all that context to work with as well, like the DOM, network activity, and console messages. I think that’s pretty huge.
