Playwright MCP provides a perfect server deployment program that supports headless mode operation. In monitorless environments such as Linux, remote control can be realized through the client-server mode: first run playwright run-server on a machine with a monitor to start the service, and then specify the WebSocket terminal address in the MCP configuration to establish a connection. This architectural design allows Playwright MCP to easily integrate into CI/CD processes and excel in large-scale automated task processing. The headless model not only saves computing resources, but also improves the efficiency of task execution, making it the preferred solution for deployment in production environments.
