Apple shipped an official Safari MCP. I read all 17 tools — here's why I'm keeping mine.

Short summary

Apple launched Safari MCP in Technology Preview 247 for isolated WebDriver-based browser debugging. The author's open-source safari-mcp drives your real, logged-in Safari via AppleScript and a browser extension—useful for AI agents needing full browser context. Both tools serve different needs: Apple's is the standards-compliant clean-room debugger; the author's is for automation with stored credentials.

• •Apple's Safari MCP (STP 247) provides clean-room WebDriver debugging with ~17 tools, isolated from personal data
• •Author's safari-mcp (MIT license) offers 96 tools for automating real, logged-in Safari using AppleScript and browser extension
• •Tools complement each other: Apple's for reproducible debugging, author's for AI agents needing full browser context and credentials
