Was just looking over the Safari 27 release notes¹, which is part of macOS 27, and noticed this:

New Features

- Allow your agent to connect to a Safari browser for development and debugging via the Safari MCP server. (176038457)

It's really powerful. I have been using it in Chrome for a while.

This is how to enable: chrome://inspect/#remote-debugging

This MCP server for Safari is pretty neat. I think I'm going to start automatting some tasks for our corporate websites.
