import McpDoc from '../../../../MCP.md'

<Note>
The **CLI with the skill** is the recommended way to use Playwriter. It gives agents comprehensive instructions and the full Playwright API through a single `execute` command. Use the MCP setup below only if your client doesn't support skills or you specifically need the MCP protocol.
