Fortress MCP server

Read from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.

• click_button

  Click a BUTTON or link by its visible text on the current page (navigates to `url` first if given). Use to press buttons, submit, open menus, follow links. Returns the resulting {clicked, url, title}.

• close_tab

  Close a tab by index (from list_tabs).

• crawl_site

  Crawl a whole website (BFS, auto-handles SPA/JS + lazy-load) through the stealth browser and return every discovered page/document + a sitemap. Use to map or harvest a site that blocks conventional crawlers.

• current_page

  Get the current working page's URL and title WITHOUT navigating — use to check where you landed after click_button / fill_field(submit=True). Returns {open, url, title}.

• download_file

  Download a file (preserving the stealth browser's cookies/session) to a sandboxed path. Use for PDFs/CSVs/exports behind auth or bot detection. Returns {url, path, bytes}.

• evaluate_jswrite action

  Run a JavaScript expression on the current (or a navigated) page and return its result. Use for custom scraping the high-level tools don't cover, e.g. `Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('.price')).map(e=>e.innerText)`.

• extract_document

  Extract clean text/markdown + tables from a DOCUMENT — a PDF, DOCX, XLSX, CSV, or HTML file, given a local path OR a URL (even one behind bot detection). Use for reports, datasheets, filings, or any file the agent must read.

• extract_page

  Extract clean, LLM-ready content from a page that may be behind bot detection — returns markdown + tables + metadata (or a schema-shaped record if `schema` is given). Use instead of raw HTML scraping when you want structured, readable content and the site blocks normal scrapers.

• fetch_protected_page

  Fetch a web page that normal HTTP clients / headless browsers CAN'T get — pages behind Cloudflare, DataDome, PerimeterX, Akamai, or that return 403 / 'Access Denied' / 'Are you a robot' / CAPTCHA challenges.

• fill_field

  Type `value` into a form FIELD (CSS selector, e.g. 'input[name=q]') on the current page (navigates to `url` first if given). Set submit=True to press Enter and submit — the reliable way to submit a search box. Pair with page_elements to find field selectors.

• get_cookies

  Get the cookies on the current (or a navigated) page — inspect or export an authenticated session. Returns {cookies:[...]}.

• get_page_html

  Get the RAW HTML of a page (behind bot detection or not). Use when you need the exact markup rather than cleaned markdown. Returns {url, html} (capped).

• get_stealth_cdp_endpoint

  Return a Chrome DevTools Protocol (CDP) websocket URL for a running stealth browser you can connect your OWN automation stack to — browser-use, Playwright, Puppeteer, Crawl4AI, Stagehand all accept a `cdp_url`.

• list_browser_tasks

  List the browser-automation flow names accepted by run_browser_task (login, paginate_collect, infinite_scroll_collect, extract_table, multi_step_checkout, download_file, navigate_spa, ...).

• list_tabs

  List the open browser tabs (index + url + which is current).

• load_profile

  Restore a saved session (cookies + localStorage) from a named profile — reuse a login without re-authenticating. Navigate to the site afterward.

• page_elements

  Map a page's interactive STRUCTURE — its buttons, links, form fields, and headings (the layout/design overview). Use to discover what you can click or fill before calling click_button / fill_field. Returns {url, buttons[], links[], fields[], headings[]}.

• press_key

  Press a key on the current page: Enter (submit a focused field), Tab, Escape (dismiss a dialog), ArrowDown, PageDown, etc. Returns the resulting {url}.

• read_page

  Get clean, reader-mode MARKDOWN of ANY web page (protected or not) — the readable article/content as markdown plus any tables. Use to read a page's content without the HTML noise. Returns {url, title, markdown, tables}.

• recon_site_apis

  Reverse-engineer a site's PRIVATE API: drive the page in a stealth browser and capture the XHR/fetch endpoints, auth flow, and JSON traffic behind it (secret-scrubbed). Use when you want to hit a site's real backend API directly instead of scraping HTML.

• run_browser_taskwrite action

  Run a multi-step browser automation on a stealth browser that won't get flagged as a bot — logging in, paginating, infinite-scroll collection, table extraction, form fill, file download, multi-step checkout, SPA navigation.

• save_page

  Save a page (behind bot detection or not) as pdf | html | text | screenshot to `path`. Use to archive/export a protected page as a PDF.

• save_profile

  Save the current authenticated session (cookies + localStorage) to a named profile so you can restore the login later with load_profile — no need to log in again. Do this AFTER a successful login (e.g. via run_browser_task).

• screenshot_page

  Screenshot a page (that may be behind bot detection) as PNG. Writes to `path` if given, else returns base64 (large images are saved to a temp file instead, to avoid flooding context). Use for visual verification/QA.

• search_webwrite action

  Run a web search through a real stealth browser (not a paid SERP API) and return organic results. Useful when you need fresh search results and SERP APIs are unavailable or the search engine blocks scripted queries.

• wait_for

  Wait for a CSS selector to appear (navigates to `url` first if given). Use before reading a page whose content loads late via JavaScript.
