Summary

  • Catch saveAs rejections from the MCP tab download handler; when the browser was closed mid-download the rejection fired after the context stopped listening for unhandled rejections and took down the server.

Fixes #42831

Hi, I'm the Playwright bot and I took a first look at the CI failures here.

🟡 Nothing points at this PR, but two failures aren't proven flakes

The PR only changes the download listener in tools/backend/tab.ts to log a rejected _downloadStarted() instead of leaving it unhandled, and adds one test in mcp/files.spec.ts. None of the three failing tests start a download. The annotate.spec.ts failure is a confirmed flake. The other two, http.spec.ts:624 on [webkit] and cli-json.spec.ts:191 on [chromium], have no earlier failures of their own in the DB. The same errors have shown up on sibling projects on main, which points toward flakes.

Details

The failures come from the MCP merge report, which matches test run 36074277043 (sha 0fc10c0f). The new test, closing browser during download does not crash the server, passes in that run. It timed out on macOS in an earlier push (0d05cbad) and passed after it was switched to isolated: true.

Pre-existing flake / infra

Uncertain

  • [webkit] › mcp/http.spec.ts:624 › should close session when heartbeat ping is not answered (macOS): Expected: 1, Received: undefined after the 5s poll. The only [webkit] failure in the DB is this PR's run. The identical error hit [firefox] on Windows on main (0f5a946a, run 33657515908) and passed on retry. The failure is in HTTP session heartbeat handling, which this PR doesn't touch.
  • [chromium] › mcp/cli-json.spec.ts:191 › tool error on bad navigation returns JSON error (macOS): 30s timeout with SyntaxError: Unexpected end of JSON input. The [chromium] project has no other failure in the DB, so this is its first recorded one and I can't strictly call it a flake. The test is a bad goto and never fires a download event, so the changed code doesn't run. The identical error failed [chrome] on macOS on main (80ef9143, run 33186806849) and [webkit] on macOS on feat(reporter): report step params in the chrome://tracing report #42358, which strongly suggests a flake. A green rerun of the MCP macOS chromium job would settle it.

#### Bug Fixes

- `browser_find` takes `filename` to save matches to a file instead of the response ([microsoft/playwright#42077](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/issues/42077)). ([microsoft/playwright#42968](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42968))
- `browser_navigate` and `browser_reload` report a dialog opened during page load instead of timing out ([microsoft/playwright#42817](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/issues/42817)). ([microsoft/playwright#42908](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42908))
- The server no longer crashes when the browser is closed during a download ([microsoft/playwright#42831](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/issues/42831)). ([microsoft/playwright#42922](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42922))
- `browser_wait_for` reports when `time` is capped at 30 seconds ([#&#8203;1767](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright-mcp/issues/1767)). ([microsoft/playwright#42932](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42932))
- WebMCP tools no longer stay bound to a stale tab or frame ([microsoft/playwright#42816](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/issues/42816)). ([microsoft/playwright#42821](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42821))
- WebMCP tool calls work with Chromium 155+. ([microsoft/playwright#42915](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42915))
- Snapshots quote accessible names that look like regexes, e.g. `"/home/"` ([microsoft/playwright#42807](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/issues/42807)). ([microsoft/playwright#42811](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42811))
- The Docker image reaps orphaned browser processes ([#&#8203;1769](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright-mcp/issues/1769)). ([#&#8203;1771](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright-mcp/pull/1771))

[Compare Source](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright-mcp/compare/v0.0.81...v0.0.82)

#### ✨ Highlights

- **🎬 Smooth 60 fps, styleable videos** — `browser_start_video` (opt-in via `--caps=devtools`) takes `fps`, so `fps: 60` records smooth 60 fps videos instead of the default 25, and `cursor: true` renders an animated mouse cursor that travels to each action point and stays visible between actions. `browser_video_show_actions` takes a `style` with `point`, `highlight` and `title` CSS declarations; the action point marker and the target highlight are now only shown when styled. ([microsoft/playwright#42752](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42752), [microsoft/playwright#42758](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42758))
- **🧰 WebMCP tools become real MCP tools** — the tools a page registers through the [WebMCP](https://webmachinelearning.github.io/webmcp/) API now show up right in the tool list as `webmcp_<tool>`, with the page's own input schema and annotations, so an agent can call them directly and let the page do the work instead of driving its UI. The list follows the current tab, and clients get a `tools/list_changed` notification when it changes. This replaces `browser_webmcp_list` / `browser_webmcp_call` from v0.0.81, which are no longer exposed over MCP. Tool names, descriptions, schemas and results come from the page, so treat them as untrusted input. Pass `--no-webmcp` (config `webmcp: false`, env `PLAYWRIGHT_MCP_WEBMCP=false`) to opt out. WebMCP is experimental, see [WebMCP in Chrome](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/ai/webmcp) for how to enable it. ([microsoft/playwright#42671](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42671))
- **🌗 Switch between light and dark color scheme** ([microsoft/playwright#42243](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/issues/42243)) — an agent working on a dark theme had no way to see it mid-session. The new **`browser_emulate_media`** tool emulates media features on the fly: `colorScheme`, `reducedMotion`, `forcedColors`, `contrast` and the `media` type (screen / print). Omitted parameters are left unchanged, `null` clears an override. ([microsoft/playwright#42668](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42668))
- **📁 Absolute paths in results** ([microsoft/playwright#42497](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/issues/42497)) — links to snapshots, screenshots, console logs and downloads are relative to the workspace root, which a client without one cannot resolve. Pass `--file-paths=absolute` (config `filePaths: "absolute"`, env `PLAYWRIGHT_MCP_FILE_PATHS=absolute`) to get absolute paths instead. ([microsoft/playwright#42673](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42673))

#### 🐛 Fixes

- `fix(mcp): keep upload modal and reject bad headers` — a failed `browser_file_upload` (e.g. a missing file) reports the error and keeps the file chooser open so it can be retried, and `browser_route` (opt-in via `--caps=network`) returns an error for a header that is not in the `Name: Value` form instead of setting a header named `""`. ([microsoft/playwright#42713](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42713))
- `fix(chromium): bypass service workers on the storage state page` — `browser_storage_state` (opt-in via `--caps=storage`) no longer runs the site's own scripts, or fails when they redirect, for origins with an active service worker ([microsoft/playwright#42656](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/issues/42656)). ([microsoft/playwright#42664](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42664), [microsoft/playwright#42741](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42741))

#### What's New

##### 🎉 New Tools

- **`browser_webmcp_list` / `browser_webmcp_call`** — List and call the tools a page registers through the [WebMCP](https://webmachinelearning.github.io/webmcp/) API, letting the page do the work instead of driving its UI. When a page has WebMCP tools, the page status reports how many are available ([#&#8203;42613](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42613)). WebMCP is experimental, see [WebMCP in Chrome](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/ai/webmcp) for how to enable it.

##### Other Changes

- New `--profile-dir-name <name>` option (env `PLAYWRIGHT_MCP_PROFILE_DIR_NAME`) selects the Chrome profile to connect to in extension mode when the extension is installed in several profiles, for example `"Profile 1"` ([#&#8203;42527](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42527))
- Headless browsers launched by the server are now closed after one hour without tool calls; the next tool call launches a new one. Use `--idle-timeout <ms>` (config `timeouts.idle`, env `PLAYWRIGHT_MCP_IDLE_TIMEOUT`) to change the timeout, `0` disables it. Headed and attached browsers are not closed unless a timeout is set explicitly ([#&#8203;42663](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42663), [#&#8203;42676](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42676))
- `--image-responses` accepts `only`: a response that carries an image consists of the image parts alone, without the text part ([#&#8203;42672](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42672))

#### Bug Fixes

- `browser_close` returns an error when the browser context is shared (`--shared-browser-context`) instead of breaking the calling client's session. This supersedes the v0.0.80 change that dropped the backend after `browser_close` ([#&#8203;42495](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42495))
- With `--shared-browser-context`, `browser_start_recording` / `browser_stop_recording` (opt-in via `--caps=devtools`) keep each client's recording separate instead of delivering one client's recorded actions to another ([#&#8203;42622](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42622), [#&#8203;42627](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42627))
- The file access check follows symlinks, so a symlink inside the workspace can no longer be used to read or write files outside the allowed roots ([#&#8203;42628](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42628))
- Explicitly named output files in a nested directory (e.g. `sub/shot.png`) no longer fail with `ENOENT`; `browser_file_upload` and `browser_drop` resolve relative paths against the workspace root ([#&#8203;42540](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42540))
- In extension mode with `PLAYWRIGHT_MCP_EXTENSION_TOKEN` set, a connection that never completes (e.g. the token belongs to another Chrome profile) now fails after 30 seconds with a hint instead of hanging the tool call forever ([#&#8203;42525](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42525))
- Disable the Chromium sandbox by default on Linux for the bundled Chromium build, which lacks the setuid sandbox helper ([#&#8203;42490](https://redirect.github.com/microsoft/playwright/pull/42490))
