## About

# Chrome Enterprise Premium MCP Server

A [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) (MCP) server for
[Chrome Enterprise Premium](https://docs.cloud.google.com/chrome-enterprise-premium/docs/overview)
(CEP). CEP extends Chrome's built-in security with Data Loss Prevention (DLP),
real-time threat protection (phishing and malware scanning), and Context-Aware
Access controls. This server exposes CEP's DLP rules, content detectors,
connector policies, browser telemetry, and license management as MCP tools,
so any MCP-compatible AI agent can inspect and configure a Chrome Enterprise
environment.

## Prerequisites

Before setting up the MCP server, ensure you have the following:

1.  **Node.js & npm:** Node.js version `20.0.0` or higher installed locally.
2.  **Google Workspace Account:**
    - Any Workspace edition with a [Chrome Enterprise Premium](https://docs.cloud.google.com/chrome-enterprise-premium/docs/overview) license.
    - An administrator role in the [Admin Console](https://admin.google.com/) (Super Admin or delegated with **Chrome Management** and **DLP** permissions). Standard Workspace accounts (or Google Cloud IAM permissions alone) do not grant access and will return `403 Permission Denied` errors with no indication that a Workspace role is missing.
3.  **OAuth App Trust (if required):** If your organization restricts third-party app access, a Super Admin must [trust the OAuth client](docs/troubleshooting.md#configure-oauth-app-for-sensitive-scopes) in the Admin Console before you can authenticate.
4.  **MCP Client:** A compatible MCP host application (such as Gemini CLI, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, or VS Code).

### Quick start

Get up and running in less than 2 minutes using the bundled Google-managed OAuth client. No repository cloning required!

### 1. Connect your MCP client

The server uses **stdio** transport; your MCP client launches it as a child process. Depending on your client, connect the server using one of the following methods:

**If you are using the Gemini CLI**, you can install this repository directly as an extension with a single command. This automatically configures the MCP connection and loads the built-in AI guidance rules:

```bash
gemini extensions install https://github.com/google/chrome-enterprise-premium-mcp
```

**For all other MCP-compatible clients** (such as Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, or VSCode), add this configuration block to your client's settings file (e.g., `claude_desktop_config.json` or `~/.gemini/settings.json`):

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cep": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@google/chrome-enterprise-premium-mcp@latest"],
      "env": { "GCP_STDIO": "true" }
    }
  }
}
```

### 2. Query the agent

Restart your MCP client, then ask the agent to perform a check, for example:

> "How can you help me use Chrome Enterprise Premium?"

> "How do I set up a rule to block uploads of credit card numbers?"

> "List my Chrome Enterprise Premium DLP rules."

> [!NOTE]
> **Authentication:** The first time you run a query that calls a tool requiring authentication, the agent will prompt you to sign in.
>
> - **Desktop:** A browser tab will open automatically on Google's consent screen.
> - **Headless/Remote:** If you are on SSH, Cloud Shell, or a container, the agent will provide a consent URL. Open it locally, sign in, and paste the redirect URL back to the agent in the chat.
> - **CLI Fallback:** If you prefer to authenticate via the terminal, you can run:
>   ```bash
>   npx @google/chrome-enterprise-premium-mcp auth login
>   ```

## Security & Blast Radius Warning

> [!CAUTION]
> **This server is an administrator-level interface to Chrome Enterprise Premium.**
> When you connect it to an MCP client, you can use natural-language prompts to:
>
> - **Create and modify DLP rules and content detectors.**
> - Change connector policies.
> - Force-install browser extensions onto every managed Chrome browser.
> - Enable Google Cloud APIs on your project.
>
> An attacker who plants hidden instructions in untrusted inputs—mail,
> documents, scraped pages, ticket bodies—can hijack the connected MCP
> client through [indirect prompt injection](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prompt_injection).
> The attacker can then run those tools without your consent.
>
> To reduce the blast radius:
>
> - Connect this server only to MCP clients you trust, on data sources you trust.
> - Treat every document, message, and webpage you put in front of the agent as untrusted. It might contain hidden instructions.
> - Pay extra attention to mutating tools (`create_*`, `update_*`, `enable_*`); they have tenant-wide security impact.
> - Use a dedicated, least-privilege admin account when experimenting.

## Workspace Scopes & Permissions

The scope set requested during the "Sign in" consent flow maps directly to the underlying Google APIs needed for the server's tools:

| Scope                                 | API                                                                             | Used for                                             |

> [!NOTE]
> **OAuth App Trust Required:** If your organization restricts third-party app access, a Super Admin must [trust the OAuth client](docs/troubleshooting.md#configure-oauth-app-for-sensitive-scopes) in the Admin Console before you can authenticate.

## Advanced Authentication Options

For production environments, headless systems, or customized configurations, the server supports alternative auth pathways:

- **Custom OAuth Client:** To run under your own Google Cloud project instead of the default managed one (enabling you to manage your own consent screen and credentials), see [Use a Custom OAuth Client](docs/auth-bring-your-own-oauth-client.md).
- **Headless / SSH Sessions:** To authenticate on remote hosts or CI runners without a web browser, see [Sign In from a Host Without a Browser](docs/auth-bring-your-own-oauth-client.md#sign-in-from-a-host-without-a-browser).
- **Hosted Deployments:** For Cloud Run, Vertex AI Agent Engine, or service-account automation, see the [Authentication Setup Matrix](docs/configuration.md#authenticate-to-google-apis).

## Available tools and prompts

### Prompts

| Prompt         | Description                                                                            |
| :------------- | :------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `cep:health`   | Health check of the Chrome Enterprise environment (APIs, DLP, connectors, extensions). |
| `cep:optimize` | Rule-by-rule review with tuning, enforcement, and cleanup recommendations.             |
| `cep:expert`   | Manually re-injects the expert persona and rules (useful if the agent loses context).  |

### Tools

The server exposes tools for reading and managing Chrome Enterprise resources:

- **Discovery:** get customer ID, list org units, count browser versions, list
  customer profiles
- **Licensing:** check CEP subscription status, check per-user license
  assignment
- **DLP:** list/create DLP rules, list/create detectors (regex,
  word list, URL list), create default rule sets
- **Connectors:** get connector policy status, enable Chrome Enterprise
  connectors
- **Extensions:** check SEB extension status, install SEB extension
- **Security:** get Chrome activity logs, check and enable required APIs
- **Knowledge:** retrieve documentation from the built-in Chrome Enterprise Premium knowledge base

## Architecture

The codebase has three layers: API clients in `lib/api/` (one interface +
real implementation per Google API), MCP tools and prompts in `tools/` and
`prompts/`, and the server entry point in `mcp-server.js`. Integration tests
redirect the real API clients at an in-process Express fake under
`test/helpers/`. For the directory layout, design patterns, and how the test
backends are wired, see [`docs/architecture.md`](docs/architecture.md).

## Troubleshooting

For known issues with auth, permissions, Node.js setup, and MCP client
integration (including the `/mcp` reload tip when CEP tools do not show up
right after restart), see
[`docs/troubleshooting.md`](docs/troubleshooting.md).

## FAQ

For license requirements, Workspace edition, service-account auth,
experimental features, and other recurring questions, see
[`docs/faq.md`](docs/faq.md).

## Reporting bugs

If something isn't working:

1. In Gemini CLI, run `/bug` to capture session diagnostics. Attach the
   generated file to your issue.
2. Run `npm run presubmit` and paste the output; this lets maintainers tell
   environmental problems from real code bugs.
3. Describe what you expected vs. what actually happened, including the exact
   error message.
