description: Set up or diagnose the Kitsuvo browser plugin when its MCP tools are missing or cannot launch the desktop browser.
---

Kitsuvo must be installed on the same computer as its MCP process. The plugin runs `kitsuvo mcp`; it starts an isolated agent browser when needed.

Check whether Kitsuvo's `browser_tabs` tool is available (hosts may namespace it). Call it with `action: list` to verify the connection. Explain that this uses a separate profile, so normal browsing cookies and history are absent.

If tools are missing, enable the installed plugin and start a new conversation. If the executable cannot be found, put the installed Kitsuvo executable on PATH or replace `command` in the client's MCP configuration with its absolute path; keep `args: ["mcp"]`. Restart the client. Do not download or run an unrelated binary.

Cloud clients cannot execute a local stdio server directly. Use the bridge and Secure MCP Tunnel setup in the [integration guide](https://github.com/leancoderkavy/kitsuvo/blob/main/docs/marketplace-integrations.md). Do not invent a server URL or a registered app ID.

When ready, offer a first task: open a user-selected page and read its Kitsuvo report. Do not enable `--main-profile` or `--allow-sensitive` as a setup shortcut.
