## About

# Claudezilla

**Browser automation for Claude Code that runs on Firefox** — for systems where Chrome is unavailable, unwelcome, or policy-prohibited.

[](./CHANGELOG.md)

The only Firefox-native MCP server for Claude Code. Navigate, automate, screenshot, and extract data on any system that runs Firefox — no Chrome dependency, no Google infrastructure.

**[Claudezilla.com](https://claudezilla.com)**

## Why Claudezilla?

Anthropic's official browser tool requires Chrome. If you're on a system where Chrome is not available — or not acceptable — Claudezilla gives Claude Code the same browser automation capabilities through Firefox.

- **Linux-native** — Works with the Firefox that ships on Debian, Fedora, RHEL, Ubuntu, and every major distro. No Google repository required.
- **Zero telemetry** — All communication runs through a local Unix socket. No data leaves your machine. No Google account, no Chrome sync, no phone-home.
- **Hardened environments** — Built for Tails, Whonix, Qubes OS, air-gapped networks, and enterprise Linux where package policy prohibits Chrome.
- **Multi-agent safe** — 12-tab shared pool with 128-bit agent IDs, ownership tracking, and screenshot mutex. Multiple Claude sessions coexist safely.
- **Full feature parity** — Click, type, scroll, screenshot, evaluate JS, access DevTools console and network. Same capabilities, different browser.

## Quick Start

### 1. Install the extension

Install from **[Firefox Add-ons](https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/claudezilla/)**

### 2. Install the native host

```bash
git clone https://github.com/boot-industries/claudezilla.git
cd claudezilla

# macOS
./install/install-macos.sh

# Linux
./install/install-linux.sh
```

The installer automatically:
- Installs the native messaging host
- Runs `npm install` for MCP dependencies
- Configures Claude Code MCP settings (`~/.claude/mcp.json`)

No manual config required — restart Claude Code and you're ready.

## What Can Claude Do?

| Capability | Description |
|------------|-------------|
| **Browse** | Open URLs, navigate pages, manage tabs |
| **Read** | Extract text, get page structure, accessibility tree |
| **Interact** | Click buttons, fill forms, press keys, scroll |
| **Screenshot** | Capture pages (JPEG, configurable quality) |
| **Consent** | Auto-dismiss cookie/GDPR consent dialogs |
| **Wait** | Handle SPAs and dynamic content |
| **Focus Loops** | Persistent iterative tasks until completion |

## Requirements

- Firefox 91+
- Node.js 18+
- [Claude Code CLI](https://claude.com/claude-code)

## Privacy & Security

Claudezilla is designed with security in mind:

- **Command whitelist** — Only predefined actions allowed
- **Local only** — Communication via Unix socket (no network exposure)
- **Tab isolation** — Each Claude session owns its tabs
- **URL validation** — Blocks dangerous schemes (`javascript:`, `data:`)
- **Supply chain hardened** — `ignore-scripts=true`, pinned dependencies, pnpm strict isolation, SHA-pinned CI actions, timing-safe auth

Works in both regular and private Firefox windows. Tab navigation respects ownership — Claude can only navigate tabs it created.

See [SECURITY.md](./SECURITY.md) for the full security model.

## Architecture

```
Claude Code ←→ MCP Server ←→ Unix Socket ←→ Native Host ←→ Firefox Extension
```

The extension uses Firefox's [Native Messaging](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Native_messaging) to communicate with a local Node.js process, which exposes tools via the [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/).
