Browser Extension
Install the handy browser extension to easily send links from your browser to the app and preview instantly.
MCP Server (AI coding agents)
Responsively App ships a built-in Model Context Protocol server, so AI coding agents like Claude Code and Cursor can drive the app while you build — load your dev server, switch device previews, interact with pages, and visually verify responsive layouts with per-device screenshots.
Install the app, launch it once, then connect from Claude Code:
claude mcp add responsively -- npx -y @responsively/mcp
Or add to Cursor's .cursor/mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"responsively": {"command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@responsively/mcp"]}
}
}
The app is launched on demand — connecting an agent session doesn't open it; the first tool call starts it automatically (and it stays open afterwards). If it's already running, it's reused.
Available tools:
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
get_app_state | Current URL, page title, layout, zoom and active devices |
navigate | Load a URL in all device previews (waits for the page to load) |
list_devices | Full device catalog, including custom devices |
set_active_devices | Change which devices are previewed, by id or name |
screenshot | Capture one or all device previews as JPEG images |
read_page | Read a preview's page text and interactive elements with CSS selectors |
click | Click an element (trusted mouse event; mirrors across previews) |
type_text | Type into a form field with real keystrokes, optionally press Enter |
Screenshots capture the visible viewport and are downscaled to at most 1000px wide.
The app's MCP server listens on http://127.0.0.1:12720/mcp (localhost only) whenever the app is running. If your MCP client can't run npx, connect to it directly — but you'll need to have the app running yourself:
claude mcp add --transport http responsively http://127.0.0.1:12720/mcp
Environment variables understood by @responsively/mcp:
| Variable | Purpose |
|---|---|
RESPONSIVELY_APP_PATH | Path to a custom app install (auto-detected otherwise) |
RESPONSIVELY_MCP_PORT | Port of the app's MCP server (default 12720) |
RESPONSIVELY_MCP_BRIDGE | Direct path to a bridge cli.js (development override) |
Linux note: the app ships as an AppImage, so launch it once before first agent use — that's how the CLI learns where it lives.
