Install OpenCLI globally with npm, add the browser bridge extension to Chrome, then use opencli browser commands with a named session to open pages, click elements, fill forms, and extract data. Built-in adapters cover popular sites like Reddit and HackerNews out of the box.

Run opencli browser recon analyze on the target URL to detect its architecture, then opencli browser recon init to scaffold the adapter. The adapter's index.js uses browser automation primitives and schema.json defines its arguments and output columns.

Yes, OpenCLI supports multiple Chrome profiles. Use opencli profile list to see connected profiles, opencli profile use to set a default, or pass --profile per command to target a specific logged-in browser context.

Empty results usually mean you are not logged in to the target site in Chrome. Log in manually in the browser, confirm the extension is active at chrome://extensions, then rerun the command. OpenCLI relies on the browser's authenticated session.

Yes, set the OPENCLI_CDP_ENDPOINT environment variable to the Chrome DevTools Protocol websocket address, such as ws://localhost:9222. Use OPENCLI_CDP_TARGET to filter when multiple targets exist, then verify connectivity with opencli doctor.

Browser automation depends on a running Chrome instance with the extension installed and valid login sessions, so it is slower and more fragile than direct API access. Sites with heavy anti-bot measures or frequent DOM changes may require adapter maintenance.
