agent-browser

Use it when

• An AI agent needs to drive a real Chrome browser from shell commands, reading pages via accessibility-tree snapshots and clicking elements by stable refs instead of brittle CSS selectors
• Your automation keeps forcing re-login every run and you need saved auth state, Chrome profile reuse, or session persistence so the agent stays authenticated across restarts

What it solves

Not the fit when

• Bypassing bot detection, CAPTCHAs, or anti-scraping defenses
• Accessibility audits on Safari or iOS WebDriver sessions (a11y requires a CDP browser)
• High-volume distributed scraping behind provider rate limits
• bot-detection-challenge
• geo-block
• rate-limit-throttle

Install

npm install -g agent-browser && agent-browser install

Invoke

agent-browser open example.com; agent-browser snapshot; agent-browser click @e2; agent-browser fill @e3 "text"; or run agent-browser mcp for an MCP stdio server
