Google's Chrome DevTools MCP gives Cursor a live Chrome instance — it can click, read the console, and pull network requests instead of guessing from screenshots. Frontend debugging in Cursor often hits a dead end: you paste an error, the agent tries to fix it, but it can't see the network tab, the console, or the actual UI. Wire up the Chrome DevTools MCP in Settings → MCP → New MCP Server, then ask Cursor to open the page and check itself. The agent navigates, clicks, and reads source-mapped stack traces to pinpoint the exact line. Implementation example: // In Cursor: Settings → MCP → New MCP Server { "mcpServers": { "chrome-devtools": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "chrome-devtools-mcp@latest"] } } } // Then in chat: "My checkout button isn't firing. Open localhost:3000, click it, and tell me what's wrong."
