What is Safari MCP Server?

It is a WebKit MCP server introduced in Safari Technology Preview 247 that exposes Safari browser inspection and automation tools to MCP clients.

How do you start Safari MCP Server?

Install Safari Technology Preview, enable developer features plus remote automation and external agents, then run safaridriver with the --mcp argument through a client such as Claude or Codex.

Does Safari MCP Server send data to Apple?

The WebKit blog says the server runs locally and makes no network calls of its own, but captured browser data goes to the agent and model the user chooses.
