Browser Act

Browser automation CLI for specialized multi-session browser workflows. Use only when the user explicitly requests BrowserAct, specifies a browser-act CLI command, or requires pre-configured persistent/multi-account sessions. For exploratory QA of local application UI under development, use playwright-qa instead. Never use chrome-direct.

OpenCode browser contract

Follow the browser engine rules. Invocation only:

Create browsers only with --type chrome. Never --type chrome-direct (deliberate OCBF policy ban).
Do not reuse a chrome-direct browser (including pulse-test).
stealth-extract is allowed for sessionless fetch.

browser-act

Built by BrowserAct — Browser automation CLI for AI agents · GitHub

Runs a full browser engine: navigation & interaction, data extraction & network capture, screenshots, form automation, multi-browser parallel operation, user-configured proxy support, and human-agent collaboration.

Features

Lightweight extraction — fast JS-rendered content fetch without opening a browser session, advanced WebFetch/curl replacement
Session management — multi-browser isolation, multi-account parallel operation
Verification assistance — when automation encounters interactive challenges, assists completion with user authorization
Complex interaction — DOM content extraction, screenshots, form filling, file upload
Human-agent collaboration — headed mode + remote assist for manual steps
Safety controls — Confirmation Gate protocol requires explicit user approval before browser creation, deletion, and sensitive operations

Install: uv tool install browser-act-cli --python 3.12
