No longer using Docker containers — agents run as direct host processes. The directory name now reflects the actual purpose. Updated all references across source code, docs, and skills.

# Browser Automation with agent-browser
|
|
|
|
## Quick start
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
agent-browser open <url> # Navigate to page
|
|
agent-browser snapshot -i # Get interactive elements with refs
|
|
agent-browser click @e1 # Click element by ref
|
|
agent-browser fill @e2 "text" # Fill input by ref
|
|
agent-browser close # Close browser
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Core workflow
|
|
|
|
1. Navigate: `agent-browser open <url>`
|
|
2. Snapshot: `agent-browser snapshot -i` (returns elements with refs like `@e1`, `@e2`)
|
|
3. Interact using refs from the snapshot
|
|
4. Re-snapshot after navigation or significant DOM changes
|
|
|
|
## Commands
|
|
|
|
### Navigation
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
agent-browser open <url> # Navigate to URL
|
|
agent-browser back # Go back
|
|
agent-browser forward # Go forward
|
|
agent-browser reload # Reload page
|
|
agent-browser close # Close browser
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Snapshot (page analysis)
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
agent-browser snapshot # Full accessibility tree
|
|
agent-browser snapshot -i # Interactive elements only (recommended)
|
|
agent-browser snapshot -c # Compact output
|
|
agent-browser snapshot -d 3 # Limit depth to 3
|
|
agent-browser snapshot -s "#main" # Scope to CSS selector
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Interactions (use @refs from snapshot)
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
agent-browser click @e1 # Click
|
|
agent-browser dblclick @e1 # Double-click
|
|
agent-browser fill @e2 "text" # Clear and type
|
|
agent-browser type @e2 "text" # Type without clearing
|
|
agent-browser press Enter # Press key
|
|
agent-browser hover @e1 # Hover
|
|
agent-browser check @e1 # Check checkbox
|
|
agent-browser uncheck @e1 # Uncheck checkbox
|
|
agent-browser select @e1 "value" # Select dropdown option
|
|
agent-browser scroll down 500 # Scroll page
|
|
agent-browser upload @e1 file.pdf # Upload files
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Get information
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
agent-browser get text @e1 # Get element text
|
|
agent-browser get html @e1 # Get innerHTML
|
|
agent-browser get value @e1 # Get input value
|
|
agent-browser get attr @e1 href # Get attribute
|
|
agent-browser get title # Get page title
|
|
agent-browser get url # Get current URL
|
|
agent-browser get count ".item" # Count matching elements
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Screenshots & PDF
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
agent-browser screenshot # Save to temp directory
|
|
agent-browser screenshot path.png # Save to specific path
|
|
agent-browser screenshot --full # Full page
|
|
agent-browser pdf output.pdf # Save as PDF
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Wait
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
agent-browser wait @e1 # Wait for element
|
|
agent-browser wait 2000 # Wait milliseconds
|
|
agent-browser wait --text "Success" # Wait for text
|
|
agent-browser wait --url "**/dashboard" # Wait for URL pattern
|
|
agent-browser wait --load networkidle # Wait for network idle
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Semantic locators (alternative to refs)
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
agent-browser find role button click --name "Submit"
|
|
agent-browser find text "Sign In" click
|
|
agent-browser find label "Email" fill "user@test.com"
|
|
agent-browser find placeholder "Search" type "query"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Authentication with saved state
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Login once
|
|
agent-browser open https://app.example.com/login
|
|
agent-browser snapshot -i
|
|
agent-browser fill @e1 "username"
|
|
agent-browser fill @e2 "password"
|
|
agent-browser click @e3
|
|
agent-browser wait --url "**/dashboard"
|
|
agent-browser state save auth.json
|
|
|
|
# Later: load saved state
|
|
agent-browser state load auth.json
|
|
agent-browser open https://app.example.com/dashboard
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Cookies & Storage
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
agent-browser cookies # Get all cookies
|
|
agent-browser cookies set name value # Set cookie
|
|
agent-browser cookies clear # Clear cookies
|
|
agent-browser storage local # Get localStorage
|
|
agent-browser storage local set k v # Set value
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### JavaScript
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
agent-browser eval "document.title" # Run JavaScript
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Example: Form submission
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
agent-browser open https://example.com/form
|
|
agent-browser snapshot -i
|
|
# Output shows: textbox "Email" [ref=e1], textbox "Password" [ref=e2], button "Submit" [ref=e3]
|
|
|
|
agent-browser fill @e1 "user@example.com"
|
|
agent-browser fill @e2 "password123"
|
|
agent-browser click @e3
|
|
agent-browser wait --load networkidle
|
|
agent-browser snapshot -i # Check result
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Example: Data extraction
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
agent-browser open https://example.com/products
|
|
agent-browser snapshot -i
|
|
agent-browser get text @e1 # Get product title

|
agent-browser get attr @e2 href # Get link URL
|
