ChromeBoost: MCP server hit-tests before clicking to fix false success reports
Free-Plantain4841 · reddit · 2026-08-17
A developer built ChromeBoost, an MCP server that performs hit-testing before clicking to avoid false success reports caused by overlays. It handles shadow DOM, scrolls clear of pinned bars, temporarily disables pointer events on covering layers, and adds hover and drag support. Works with Claude Code, Gemini CLI, and Codex. MIT licensed, no telemetry.
