Browser tools is not working for developers that have to use NVM

[it-sha]

As many developers, I have to use NVM on my Windows machine.
In this case, MCP can not be installed via your instructions.

I have tried to use this approach modelcontextprotocol/servers#75 (comment)
It works fine in case of brave-search mcp or fetch mcp

So my config looks like:

    "github.com/AgentDeskAI/browser-tools-server": {
      "command": "C:/Users/User/.nvm/versions/node/v20.10.0/bin/node.exe",
      "args": [
        "C:/Users/User/.nvm/versions/node/v20.10.0/bin/node_modules/@agentdeskai/browser-tools-server/dist/browser-connector.js",
        "--port",
        "3025"
      ],
      "env": {
        "PATH": "C:/Users/User/.nvm/versions/node/v20.10.0;C:/Users/User/.nvm/versions/node/v20.10.0/bin;C:/Windows/system32;C:/Windows",
        "BROWSER_TOOLS_PORT": "3025"
      },
      "disabled": false,
      "autoApprove": [],
      "startupOrder": 1
    },
    "github.com/AgentDeskAI/browser-tools-mcp": {
      "command": "C:/Users/User/.nvm/versions/node/v20.10.0/bin/node.exe",
      "args": [
        "C:/Users/User/.nvm/versions/node/v20.10.0/bin/node_modules/@agentdeskai/browser-tools-mcp/dist/mcp-server.js"
      ],
      "env": {
        "PATH": "C:/Users/User/.nvm/versions/node/v20.10.0;C:/Users/User/.nvm/versions/node/v20.10.0/bin;C:/Windows/system32;C:/Windows",
        "BROWSER_TOOLS_PORT": "3025"
      },
      "disabled": false,
      "autoApprove": [
        "getConsoleLogs"
      ],
      "startupOrder": 2
    },

In this case browser-tools-mcp works, but browser-tools-server return error:
MCP error -2: Request timed out

And getConsoleLogs returns

Error: Failed to discover browser connector server. Please ensure it's running.

Please provide instructions how to install browser tools on Windows with NVM

Environment

• OS: Windows 11
• Browser: Chrome
• MCP Client: Cline in VSCode
• Extension Version: 1.2.0

Same thing on MacOS with Node v16.20.2. MCP initial config looks good on Cursor, the server runs and logs stuff normally on terminal, browser shows server connected, but agent trying to use any tools only get "Failed to discover browser connector server. Please ensure it's running."
