What

chrome-devtools-mcp added as Permanent 9 — fresh-Chrome Puppeteer-driven MCP with Lighthouse, performance traces, memory snapshots, CPU/network throttling, device emulation. v0.26.0 from Google ChromeDevTools org. R&D exploration of frontend perf characterization, autoresearch loops on Core Web Vitals optimization, or AI-assisted Lighthouse-driven autoresearch experiments now have a native tool surface.

Why

Action Required

Consider whether perf-optimization autoresearch loops (LCP/INP/CLS tuning, bundle-size search) should use chrome-devtools MCP as the measurement-engine. Likely yes for any UI optimization research.
