# Browser Act

Browser Act is a browser automation CLI for AI agents. Use it to fetch rendered content from URLs, fill forms and click through workflows, take screenshots, capture network responses, handle verification prompts, maintain sessions, and automate multi-browser tasks.

**Install:**

```bash
npx degit https://github.com/browser-act/skills/tree/main/browser-act ~/.claude/skills/browser-act
```

## README

# browser-act

Built by [BrowserAct](https://www.browseract.com) — Browser automation CLI for AI agents · [GitHub](https://github.com/browser-act/skills/tree/main/browser-act)

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
- Universal compatibility — works with Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, Windsurf, etc.

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

## Start here

This file is a discovery stub, not the usage guide. After loading this
skill, immediately run the following to get the actual workflow content:

```bash
browser-act get-skills core --skill-version 2.0.2
```

The CLI serves skill content that always matches the installed version,
so instructions never go stale. Do NOT truncate the output — none of
which are available through `--help`.
