The screenshot description prohibits screenshot-based actions even when vision tools are enabled, contradicting the documented Canvas/WebGL workflow.

Keep snapshots as the default and explicitly allow screenshot coordinates with vision mouse tools for elements absent from the accessibility snapshot. Extend the existing vision capability test to check this guidance.

Verified with the regression failing before the change and passing afterward; the capability, screenshot, and mouse tests passed across Chrome, Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit (118 passed, 2 existing skips). Build and full lint passed.

## ✨ Highlights

- **🌙 Keep the browser in the background**
([microsoft/playwright#42973](microsoft/playwright#42973))
— connecting through the extension activated the tab and focused the
browser window, taking the screen from the app you were working in. Pass
`--background` alongside `--extension` (config `background: true`, env
`PLAYWRIGHT_MCP_BACKGROUND=1`) to leave the connected tab inactive and
its window unfocused, and to open the client's new tabs in the
background. With `PLAYWRIGHT_MCP_EXTENSION_TOKEN` set, the connect page
opens in the background too (Chrome 158.0.8127.2 or later, with the
browser already running). Requires extension 0.5.0 or later. Chrome
throttles timers and animation frames in background tabs.
([microsoft/playwright#43864](microsoft/playwright#43864))
- **🗂️ Leave tabs out of the Playwright tab group**
([microsoft/playwright#43038](microsoft/playwright#43038))
— the extension always moved the tabs a client controls into its own tab
group. Pass `--no-tab-group` alongside `--extension` (config `tabGroup:
false`, env `PLAYWRIGHT_MCP_NO_TAB_GROUP=1`) to keep the selected tab
and the tabs the client opens in their existing groups, if any.
Connection approval is unchanged, each controlled tab still belongs to
one client, and the extension's status page lists the controlled tabs.
Requires extension 0.5.0 or later.
([microsoft/playwright#43814](microsoft/playwright#43814))
- **👁️ Match only visible elements**
([microsoft/playwright#43855](microsoft/playwright#43855))
— a locator could resolve to a hidden element, or fail because a hidden
duplicate matched as well. Set
`browser.contextOptions.locateOnlyVisible: true` in the config file to
restrict locators to visible elements, both in the `target` of element
tools such as `browser_click` and in `browser_run_code_unsafe`, as if
`.filter({ visible: true })` ended each of them. A locator that ends
with its own visibility filter keeps it. Off by default.
([microsoft/playwright#43903](microsoft/playwright#43903))
- **🏷️ Keep container names in snapshots**
([microsoft/playwright#43809](microsoft/playwright#43809))
— dialogs, landmarks and tables could appear unnamed even when their
heading or caption was visible. `browser_snapshot` now retains
identifying names on containers and table headers when the text
supplying the name also appears among their children.
([microsoft/playwright#43810](microsoft/playwright#43810))
- **🎯 Find custom form controls by label**
([microsoft/playwright#43898](microsoft/playwright#43898))
— native `<label>` associations were ignored for form-associated custom
elements. Element tools now recognize these controls through targets
such as `getByLabel('City')`, and accessible names use the associated
labels too. Both `for` attributes and nested labels are supported.
([microsoft/playwright#43900](microsoft/playwright#43900))

## 🐛 Fixes

- `fix(aria): restore snapshot visibility rules for inert and modal
content` — the filtering announced in v0.0.84 is reverted:
`browser_snapshot` no longer hides content solely because it is inert or
outside a modal dialog. Click, fill and select actions still wait for
explicitly inert targets to become non-inert
([microsoft/playwright#43792](microsoft/playwright#43792)).
([microsoft/playwright#43850](microsoft/playwright#43850),
[microsoft/playwright#43851](microsoft/playwright#43851))
- `fix(mcp): preserve non-JSON evaluation results` — `browser_evaluate`
returns readable representations of values such as BigInt, `NaN`,
`Infinity`, `undefined` and circular objects instead of losing values or
failing JSON serialization. JSON-compatible results keep their existing
format
([#1838](#1838)).
([microsoft/playwright#43973](microsoft/playwright#43973))
- `fix(mcp): resolve config file paths relative to their source` —
profile, executable, storage-state, output and other file paths in a
config resolve against that file's directory, or its target's directory
for a symlink. CLI and environment paths remain relative to the working
directory. Extension connections also honor the merged executable-path
configuration
([#1836](#1836)).
([microsoft/playwright#43970](microsoft/playwright#43970))
- `fix(extension): report lost tab instead of crashing` — tool responses
report when a page closes before its snapshot can be captured. Extension
connections also explain that Chrome may have detached the debugger
because of an unsupported frame, rather than crashing response rendering
([microsoft/playwright#43230](microsoft/playwright#43230)).
([microsoft/playwright#43863](microsoft/playwright#43863))
- `fix(mcp): bound settle waits when page timers cannot run` — tool
calls no longer hang during their settling delay when page timers are
throttled, paused or otherwise unable to run
([microsoft/playwright#43752](microsoft/playwright#43752)).
([microsoft/playwright#43767](microsoft/playwright#43767))
- `fix(mcp): report event listener exceptions as console errors` —
exceptions from page and context listeners installed through
`browser_run_code_unsafe` appear in tool responses and
`browser_console_messages` instead of escaping as unhandled errors
([microsoft/playwright#43770](microsoft/playwright#43770)).
([microsoft/playwright#43686](microsoft/playwright#43686))
- `fix(mcp): validate device names and preserve device descriptors` —
unknown `--device` values produce an explicit error, and per-client
overrides no longer mutate shared device presets
([#1834](#1834)).
([microsoft/playwright#43971](microsoft/playwright#43971))
- `fix(mcp): report one-based console source lines` — source locations
in `browser_console_messages` and console entries in tool responses now
use editor-style line numbers starting at 1
([#1839](#1839)).
([microsoft/playwright#43975](microsoft/playwright#43975))
- `fix(mcp): clarify screenshot actions with vision tools` — the
`browser_take_screenshot` description no longer rules out acting on a
screenshot. `browser_snapshot` stays the default for actions; with
`--caps=vision`, the description points to the coordinate-based mouse
tools for elements that the snapshot does not expose, such as canvas
content
([#1816](#1816)).
([microsoft/playwright#43857](microsoft/playwright#43857))
- `fix(aria): match mixed-case selected options in accessible names` —
snapshots and role locators include the selected option's text when a
custom listbox uses a mixed-case value such as `aria-selected="TRUE"`
([microsoft/playwright#43785](microsoft/playwright#43785)).
([microsoft/playwright#43787](microsoft/playwright#43787))
- `fix(chromium): preserve fonts when connecting with noDefaults` —
extension connections no longer overwrite the existing browser's font
settings, avoiding unexpected changes to page rendering
([microsoft/playwright#43715](microsoft/playwright#43715)).
([microsoft/playwright#43773](microsoft/playwright#43773))
- `fix(chromium): honor Linux config directories for channel
connections` — extension profile lookup respects `CHROME_USER_DATA_DIR`,
`CHROME_CONFIG_HOME` and `XDG_CONFIG_HOME`. Channel-based
`--cdp-endpoint` connections also use the WebSocket path advertised in
`DevToolsActivePort`
([microsoft/playwright#43880](microsoft/playwright#43880)).
([microsoft/playwright#43884](microsoft/playwright#43884))
- `fix(chromium): preserve HTTP navigations across HTTPS upgrade modes`
— in browsers launched by the server, `browser_navigate` keeps HTTP URLs
on HTTP instead of Chrome automatically upgrading them to HTTPS
([microsoft/playwright#43871](microsoft/playwright#43871)).
([microsoft/playwright#43877](microsoft/playwright#43877))
- `fix(chromium): account for tabs and toolbar in the new headless mode`
— with `--headless`, Chrome and Edge now size their window to fit the
viewport below the tab strip and toolbar, so videos from
`browser_start_video` (opt-in via `--caps=devtools`) no longer lose the
bottom of the page.
([microsoft/playwright#43904](microsoft/playwright#43904))
- `fix(screenshot): support full-page SVG documents` —
`browser_take_screenshot` with `fullPage: true` works on standalone SVG
documents instead of waiting for a nonexistent HTML body
([microsoft/playwright#43962](microsoft/playwright#43962)).
([microsoft/playwright#43972](microsoft/playwright#43972))

#### ✨ Highlights

- **👥 Separate sessions in one browser** — work with multiple accounts
without sharing their cookies or storage. `browser_tabs` with `action:
"new"` now accepts `isolatedContext: "<name>"`: tabs with the same name
share a context, while different names stay isolated. Omit it or use
`"default"` for the default context. Cookie and storage tools operate on
the current tab's context.
([microsoft/playwright#43087](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43087))
- **🙈 Redact runtime values in URLs**
([#&#8203;1791](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright-mcp/issues/1791))
— session and grant values minted at runtime cannot be listed in a
secrets file ahead of time. `--redact-url-params=access_token,code`
(config `redactUrlParams`, env `PLAYWRIGHT_MCP_REDACT_URL_PARAMS`)
replaces the named query and fragment parameter values with `<redacted>`
in tool responses. Like `secrets`, this is a convenience, not a security
feature. The extension also removes its connection token from the
connect page URL after reading it.
([microsoft/playwright#43258](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43258))
- **🔎 Bound find results**
([microsoft/playwright#42077](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/issues/42077))
— common search terms no longer have to fill the response with every
match. `browser_find` accepts a positive integer `maxResults`, returns
the first matching items with their context, and reports the total match
count. Omit it to keep returning all matches; ancestor paths are
unchanged.
([microsoft/playwright#42947](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42947))
- **🌐 Inspect requests across navigations**
([microsoft/playwright-cli#479](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright-cli/issues/479))
— requests from the previous page are no longer lost as soon as a flow
navigates. `browser_network_requests` accepts `all: true` to include
retained history, keeping up to 200 requests from earlier navigations.
Request indexes stay stable across navigations for
`browser_network_request`. `browser_console_messages` also reports
counts consistent with its existing `all` option.
([microsoft/playwright#43526](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43526))
- **🎯 Use locators in your language**
([#&#8203;1797](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright-mcp/issues/1797))
— element tools such as `browser_click` now accept JavaScript, Python,
Java and C# locators in `target`, alongside snapshot refs and CSS
selectors. Invalid targets get an actionable error, including a reminder
to pass the bare ref rather than `button [ref=e5]`.
([microsoft/playwright#43539](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43539))
- **📂 Skip unsupported workspace-root requests**
([#&#8203;1798](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright-mcp/issues/1798))
— clients that advertise roots but cannot answer `roots/list` can stall
the first tool call. Pass `--ignore-roots` (config `ignoreRoots: true`,
env `PLAYWRIGHT_MCP_IGNORE_ROOTS=true`) to skip that request and use the
server's current working directory as the workspace root.
([microsoft/playwright#43532](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43532))
- **🍪 Delete cookies by domain and path** — deleting a cookie by name no
longer has to remove every cookie with that name.
`browser_cookie_delete` (opt-in via `--caps=storage`) accepts optional
`domain` and `path` filters to leave other domains and paths untouched.
([microsoft/playwright#43319](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43319))

#### 🐛 Fixes

- `fix(mcp): allow combining time, text and textGone in
browser_wait_for` — when combined with a text condition, `time` is its
timeout (capped at 30 seconds), not a delay before checking it.
Supplying both `text` and `textGone` now waits for the first condition
to happen, rather than both in sequence.
([microsoft/playwright#43011](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43011))
- `fix(mcp): allow loopback hosts by default for all bind addresses` —
HTTP clients can connect through `localhost`, `127.0.0.1` or `[::1]`
regardless of the bind address. Other hosts still require
`--allowed-hosts`; binding to `0.0.0.0` prints a usable localhost URL.
([microsoft/playwright#42993](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42993))
- `fix(mcp): pass credentials from --proxy-server as proxy
username/password` — credentials embedded in the proxy URL are now
passed to the browser as proxy authentication settings.
([microsoft/playwright#43071](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43071))
- `fix(mcp): race browser_navigate_back against modal states` —
`browser_navigate_back` reports a dialog opened during history
navigation instead of timing out.
([microsoft/playwright#43252](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43252))
- `fix(mcp): normalize bare host URLs and loopback IP addresses` —
`browser_navigate` handles scheme-less hosts with ports and uses HTTP
for loopback addresses such as `127.0.0.1:3000` and `[::1]:3000`.
([microsoft/playwright#43264](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43264))
- `fix(mcp): do not close the browser twice when the client disconnects`
— stdio disconnects let the browser close gracefully instead of
force-killing it through a second close request. Dashboard annotation
processes also exit when their parent goes away.
([microsoft/playwright#43174](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43174))
- `fix(mcp): give each isolated client its own idle timer` — with HTTP
transport and `--isolated`, an idle client's context now expires even
while another client keeps the shared browser busy.
([microsoft/playwright#43527](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43527))
- `fix(mcp): apply route headers without bypassing origin filters` —
`browser_route` (opt-in via `--caps=network`) matches added request
header names case-insensitively, includes custom headers in mocked
responses, and preserves origin filters and other routes when modifying
request headers.
([microsoft/playwright#43227](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43227),
[microsoft/playwright#43244](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43244),
[microsoft/playwright#43637](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43637))
- `fix(mcp): correct cookie filtering and missing-domain errors` —
`browser_cookie_list` (opt-in via `--caps=storage`) matches domain and
path boundaries instead of unrelated names such as `notexample.com` or
`/apiary`. `browser_cookie_set` asks for an explicit `domain` when the
current page has no hostname, such as `about:blank`.
([microsoft/playwright#43316](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43316),
[microsoft/playwright#43368](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43368),
[microsoft/playwright#43318](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43318))
- `fix(mcp): accept Windows paths in browser_resume location` —
`browser_resume` (opt-in via `--caps=devtools`) no longer mistakes a
Windows drive-letter colon for the line-number separator.
([microsoft/playwright#43349](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43349))
- `fix(mcp): report run-code route handler exceptions once and verbatim`
— `browser_run_code_unsafe` reports a route handler's thrown value
without duplicating it or wrapping non-Error values in another error.
([microsoft/playwright#43203](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43203))
- `fix(extension): release debugger when attach completes after
connection close` — disconnecting while `browser_tabs` attaches to a new
tab no longer leaves that tab attached to the extension's debugger.
([microsoft/playwright#43025](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43025))
- `fix(chromium): close pages that crashed before connecting over CDP` —
connecting through `--cdp-endpoint` no longer stalls on an already
crashed or discarded page; those pages are omitted from the tab list.
([microsoft/playwright#43075](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43075))
- `fix(aria): skip text nodes that are not rendered` —
`browser_snapshot` and accessible names omit unrendered text, including
unslotted shadow-host text and text directly inside closed `<details>`.
([microsoft/playwright#43150](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43150))
- `fix(a11y): treat inert elements and content outside of modal dialogs
as hidden` — snapshots exclude inert content and content outside the
topmost modal `<dialog>`. Click and fill actions wait for targets to
stop being inert instead of silently misfiring.
([microsoft/playwright#43211](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43211))
- `fix(aria): do not count whitespace-only contributors as name sources`
— snapshots retain button names when whitespace around a hidden icon
previously caused the name to disappear.
([microsoft/playwright#43317](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43317))
- `fix(aria): resolve label references consistently` — snapshots and
role locators recognize tab- or newline-separated label IDs and labels
assigned through `ariaLabelledByElements`, while retaining
attribute-based labels in older browsers.
([microsoft/playwright#43361](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43361),
[microsoft/playwright#43577](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43577),
[microsoft/playwright#43722](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43722))
- `fix(aria): quote ~, .inf and .nan in aria snapshots` — YAML-like
names remain strings rather than being parsed as null or special
floating-point values.
([microsoft/playwright#43469](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43469))
- `fix(aria): preserve iframe snapshots with fallback text` — snapshots
retain an iframe's contents when the iframe element also contains
fallback text.
([microsoft/playwright#43635](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43635))
- `fix(aria): match mixed-case roles and states` — snapshots and role
locators recognize mixed-case `role` and ARIA state values, including
checked, pressed and expanded states.
([microsoft/playwright#43727](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/43727))
