Anti-detection browser automation MCP skill for OpenClaw agents with 41 tools for navigation, interaction, extraction, downloads, profiles, sessions, and stealth web search.

# CamoFox MCP Skill

CamoFox MCP gives OpenClaw agents a production-ready anti-detection browser automation toolkit over MCP HTTP transport. It connects OpenClaw to CamoFox Browser so agents can browse, click, type, extract content, manage cookies/sessions, run stealth search workflows, and download resources without the high block rates common with standard automation stacks.

## Why this skill exists

Most browser automation flows eventually hit CAPTCHAs, fingerprint checks, or bot detection. CamoFox is purpose-built for that reality:

- Anti-detection fingerprinting per tab/session
- Better resilience on sites that aggressively detect automation
- Token-efficient accessibility snapshots for agent reasoning
- Session persistence via cookie/profile tools
- Built-in search macros across 14 engines

## Setup

### 1) Start CamoFox Browser

CamoFox Browser must be running first (default `http://localhost:9377`).

### 2) Start CamoFox MCP in HTTP mode

CAMOFOX_TRANSPORT=http npx camofox-mcp@1.10.0

Optional examples:

CAMOFOX_TRANSPORT=http CAMOFOX_API_KEY=your-key npx camofox-mcp@1.10.0
CAMOFOX_TRANSPORT=http CAMOFOX_HTTP_PORT=8080 npx camofox-mcp@1.10.0

### 3) Configure OpenClaw

Add this MCP server:

{"mcpServers":{"camofox":{"url":"http://localhost:3000/mcp"}}}

Alternative skill-generation flow:

npx @filiksyos/mcptoskill http://localhost:3000/mcp
