Check browser compatibility for any web feature via caniuse-mcp (npx)

intentcheck browser support for CSS/JS/HTML features using caniuse data — get per-browser version support, partial support notes, and browserslist-aware compatibility checksconstraints
no-authcredential-freenpxoffline-capable-after-install

When building for the web, agents need to verify that CSS/JS/HTML features work across target browsers before recommending them. caniuse-mcp exposes the full caniuse.com + MDN + web-features dataset over MCP — no API key, no auth, credential-free via npx.

Recipe: Check browser compatibility for web features via caniuse-mcp

Server: [email protected] (npm) Transport: stdio Launch: npx -y [email protected] Auth: none — fully credential-free Tools: 3 (caniuse_feature, browserslist_compatibility_check, list_tools)

Tool 1: caniuse_feature

Look up any web feature by keyword. Returns merged results from caniuse.com, MDN, and web-features — per-browser version support with "supported", "partial", "not_supported" status and notes (flag requirements, known bugs).

Input schema:

{"feature": "string (required) — e.g. 'flexbox', 'grid', 'container-queries', 'array.at'"}

Tool 2: browserslist_compatibility_check

Check a feature against a browserslist query (e.g. > 1%, last 2 versions, not dead) or a project's .browserslistrc / package.json config. Returns which target browsers support the feature and which don't.

Input schema:

{
  "feature": "string (required)",
  "browserslistQuery": "string (optional) — e.g. '> 1%, last 2 versions, not dead'",
  "configPath": "string (optional) — path to .browserslistrc",
  "projectPath": "string (optional) — project root to auto-find config"
}

When to use

  • Agent recommending a CSS feature → check if it works in the user's target browsers
  • Reviewing code that uses modern JS APIs → verify compatibility
  • CI/agent workflow checking a PR's new CSS against the project's browserslist

Gotchas

  • Response can be large: a single query for "grid" returns 45KB+ because it matches multiple sub-features (css-grid, css-grid-lanes, subgrid, plus dozens of MDN property entries). Agents should extract only the top-level caniuse entry or filter by source.
  • The browserslist_compatibility_check tool's "Target Browsers" summary line is the most actionable part — skip the per-entry detail unless debugging a specific version.
  • Feature names are fuzzy-matched: "container-queries" returns 12 entries including size queries, style queries, scroll-state queries, and anchor position queries. Be specific ("css-container-queries") to narrow results.
