MCP support
The plugin connects to BugBug’s hosted MCP endpoint, providing clients with live BugBug data and actions for tests, runs, exports, and diagnostics. Changes to BugBug resources require explicit user authorization.
Configuration
Remote servers need no local install. Pick your client, then copy the config or install in one click.
https://mcp.bugbug.io/mcpclaude mcp add --transport http bugbug-io https://mcp.bugbug.io/mcp{"mcpServers":{"bugbug-io":{"type":"http","url":"https://mcp.bugbug.io/mcp"}}}Open in Cursor{"servers":{"bugbug-io":{"type":"http","url":"https://mcp.bugbug.io/mcp"}}}Open in VS Code{"mcpServers":{"bugbug-io":{"type":"http","url":"https://mcp.bugbug.io/mcp"}}}{"mcpServers":{"bugbug-io":{"serverUrl":"https://mcp.bugbug.io/mcp"}}}Run commands in a terminal; paste JSON into the client’s MCP config and restart. Servers that need sign-in will prompt on first connect.

BugBug Agent Plugin
Install BugBug's skills and hosted MCP connection into your AI client with the BugBug CLI:
npx @bugbug-io/cli plugin --agent=<agent>
Choose exactly one supported client: cursor, claude, vscode, codex, or
copilot. Use --dry-run to preview the installation.
The installer does not accept --token. The AI client you select completes its
own MCP OAuth sign-in after installation. The plugin connects to the production
endpoint at https://mcp.bugbug.io/mcp.
Features
- Ready in one command — Set up Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, or VS Code with the BugBug CLI; the selected client completes OAuth sign-in.
- Turn requirements into coverage — Use BugBug's workflow guidance and live project context to plan coverage, then create tests from an approved plan.
- Build with live BugBug context — Combine 50 MCP tools and 8 workflow prompts with 9 skills so your agent can inspect the tests, suites, profiles, and project details it needs.
- Debug from evidence — Investigate failed runs with run details, failure diagnostics, screenshots, and DOM snapshots, guided by a safe debugging workflow.
- Keep suites reliable as they grow — Review selectors, tests, reusable components, and suites with BugBug-specific guidance before making targeted improvements.
- Turn run history into decisions — Summarize project and run health for actionable QA and product insights, using live data instead of guesswork.
Skills provide safe workflow guidance; MCP supplies the live BugBug data and actions. Changes to BugBug resources require the user's explicit authorization.

New to MCP?
From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
