SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

AI agents often struggle with brittle or manual browser interactions, hindering repeatable automation and data extraction across websites. agent-browser provides a robust CLI to reliably navigate, snapshot the page, and interact with elements using refs, enabling AI-driven web tasks.

Core Features & Use Cases

Interactive snapshot workflow with refs (e.g., @e1, @e2) to minimize context.
Multi-session isolation for concurrent browsing and authenticated flows.
Data extraction, form automation, and screenshot/video capture across dynamic sites.

Quick Start

Open a URL with agent-browser open <url>, then snapshot to discover refs, and start interacting with elements.

FAQPage Schema

How do I automate web tasks with AI browser control?▼

AI browser control automates web tasks by using a CLI to open URLs, snapshot page structures, and interact with elements. It enables reliable navigation and data extraction across dynamic web apps for repeatable workflows.

What is the best way to extract data from dynamic web apps using an AI agent?▼

Data extraction from dynamic web apps is handled by snapshotting the page structure to discover element refs, then interacting with those refs. This minimizes context while allowing the AI agent to reliably extract data across dynamic sites.

How do I interact with specific page elements during browser automation?▼

Browser automation uses an interactive snapshot workflow that assigns refs like @e1 and @e2 to page elements. You interact with elements by referencing these specific tags, which minimizes context and ensures accurate targeting.

Can I run concurrent browsing sessions with isolated authenticated flows?▼

Yes, concurrent browsing is supported through multi-session isolation. This allows you to run multiple isolated browsing sessions simultaneously, enabling authenticated flows and parallel web scraping or form automation tasks.

Does AI browser automation work for form automation and taking screenshots?▼

AI browser automation supports form automation, screenshot capture, and video recording across dynamic sites. By navigating URLs and interacting with element refs, it reliably executes these repetitive web tasks for AI agents.

Why does AI browser automation use element refs instead of raw HTML?▼

Element refs are used instead of raw HTML to minimize context and prevent brittle interactions. By snapshotting the page structure and assigning refs like @e1, AI agents can reliably interact with dynamic web app elements.
