+description: Browser automation CLI for AI agents. Use when the user needs to interact with websites, including navigating pages, filling forms, clicking buttons, taking screenshots, extracting data, testing web apps, or automating any browser task. Triggers include requests to "open a website", "fill out a form", "click a button", "take a screenshot", "scrape data from a page", "test this web app", "login to a site", "automate browser actions", or any task requiring programmatic web interaction.

+
+# Browser Automation with agent-browser
+
+Install package: `npm install -g agent-browser-stealth` (CLI command remains `agent-browser` for compatibility).
+
+## Core Workflow
+
+Every browser automation follows this pattern:
+
+1. **Navigate**: `agent-browser open <url>`
+2. **Snapshot**: `agent-browser snapshot -i` (get element refs like `@e1`, `@e2`)
+3. **Interact**: Use refs to click, fill, select
+4. **Re-snapshot**: After navigation or DOM changes, get fresh refs
+
+```bash
+agent-browser open https://example.com/form
+agent-browser snapshot -i
+# Output: @e1 [input type="email"], @e2 [input type="password"], @e3 [button] "Submit"
+
+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
+```
+
+## Command Chaining
+
+Commands can be chained with `&&` in a single shell invocation. The browser persists between commands via a background daemon, so chaining is safe and more efficient than separate calls.
+
+```bash
+# Chain open + wait + snapshot in one call
+agent-browser open https://example.com && agent-browser wait --load networkidle && agent-browser snapshot -i
+
+# Chain multiple interactions
+agent-browser fill @e1 "user@example.com" && agent-browser fill @e2 "password123" && agent-browser click @e3
+
+# Navigate and capture
+agent-browser open https://example.com && agent-browser wait --load networkidle && agent-browser screenshot page.png
+```
+
+**When to chain:** Use `&&` when you don't need to read the output of an intermediate command before proceeding (e.g., open + wait + screenshot). Run commands separately when you need to parse the output first (e.g., snapshot to discover refs, then interact using those refs).
+
+## Essential Commands
+
+```bash
+# Navigation
+agent-browser open <url>              # Navigate (aliases: goto, navigate)
+agent-browser close                   # Close browser
+agent-browser --version               # Show CLI version (fork builds include upstream/fork)
+
+# Snapshot
+agent-browser snapshot -i             # Interactive elements with refs (recommended)
+agent-browser snapshot -i -C          # Include cursor-interactive elements (divs with onclick, cursor:pointer)
+agent-browser snapshot -s "#selector" # Scope to CSS selector
+
+# Interaction (use @refs from snapshot)
+agent-browser click @e1               # Click element
+agent-browser click @e1 --new-tab     # Click and open in new tab
+agent-browser fill @e2 "text"         # Clear and type text
+agent-browser type @e2 "text" --delay 120  # Type without clearing (human-like pacing)
+agent-browser select @e1 "option"     # Select dropdown option
+agent-browser check @e1               # Check checkbox
+agent-browser press Enter             # Press key
+agent-browser keyboard type "text" --delay 90  # Type at current focus (no selector)
+agent-browser keyboard inserttext "text"  # Insert without key events
+agent-browser scroll down 500         # Scroll page
+
+# Get information
+agent-browser get text @e1            # Get element text
+agent-browser get url                 # Get current URL
+agent-browser get title               # Get page title
+
+# Wait
+agent-browser wait @e1                # Wait for element
+agent-browser wait --load networkidle # Wait for network idle
+agent-browser wait --url "**/page"    # Wait for URL pattern
+agent-browser wait 2000               # Wait milliseconds
+agent-browser wait 2000-5000          # Random wait between 2-5 seconds
+
+# Capture
+agent-browser screenshot              # Screenshot to temp dir
+agent-browser screenshot --full       # Full page screenshot
+agent-browser screenshot --annotate   # Annotated screenshot with numbered element labels
+agent-browser pdf output.pdf          # Save as PDF
+
+# Diff (compare page states)
+agent-browser diff snapshot                          # Compare current vs last snapshot
+agent-browser diff snapshot --baseline before.txt    # Compare current vs saved file
+agent-browser diff screenshot --baseline before.png  # Visual pixel diff
+agent-browser diff url <url1> <url2>                 # Compare two pages
+agent-browser diff url <url1> <url2> --wait-until networkidle  # Custom wait strategy
+agent-browser diff url <url1> <url2> --selector "#main"  # Scope to element
+```
+
+## Common Patterns
+
+### Form Submission
+
+```bash
+agent-browser open https://example.com/signup
+agent-browser snapshot -i
+agent-browser fill @e1 "Jane Doe"
+agent-browser fill @e2 "jane@example.com"
+agent-browser select @e3 "California"
+agent-browser check @e4
+agent-browser click @e5
+agent-browser wait --load networkidle
+```
+
+### Authentication with State Persistence
+
+```bash
+# Login once and save state
+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
+
+# Reuse in future sessions
+agent-browser state load auth.json
+agent-browser open https://app.example.com/dashboard
+```
+
+### Session Persistence
+
+```bash
+# Auto-save/restore cookies and localStorage across browser restarts
+agent-browser --session-name myapp open https://app.example.com/login
+# ... login flow ...
+agent-browser close  # State auto-saved to ~/.agent-browser/sessions/
+
+# Next time, state is auto-loaded
+agent-browser --session-name myapp open https://app.example.com/dashboard
+
+# Encrypt state at rest
+export AGENT_BROWSER_ENCRYPTION_KEY=$(openssl rand -hex 32)
+agent-browser --session-name secure open https://app.example.com
+
+# Manage saved states
+agent-browser state list
+agent-browser state show myapp-default.json
+agent-browser state clear myapp
+agent-browser state clean --older-than 7
+```
+
+### Data Extraction
+
+```bash
+agent-browser open https://example.com/products
+agent-browser snapshot -i
+agent-browser get text @e5           # Get specific element text
+agent-browser get text body > page.txt  # Get all page text
+
+# JSON output for parsing
+agent-browser snapshot -i --json
+agent-browser get text @e1 --json
+```
+
+### Parallel Sessions
+
+```bash
+agent-browser --session site1 open https://site-a.com
+agent-browser --session site2 open https://site-b.com
+
+agent-browser --session site1 snapshot -i
+agent-browser --session site2 snapshot -i
+
+agent-browser session list
+```
+
+### Connect to Existing Chrome
+
+By default in this fork, commands without `--cdp` require an existing browser at `localhost:9333`. If CDP is unavailable, the command fails fast (no automatic local browser launch).
+
+```bash
+# Auto-discover running Chrome with remote debugging enabled
+agent-browser --auto-connect open https://example.com
+agent-browser --auto-connect snapshot
+
+# Or with explicit CDP port
+agent-browser --cdp 9222 snapshot
+```
+
+### Color Scheme (Dark Mode)
+
+```bash
+# Persistent dark mode via flag (applies to all pages and new tabs)
+agent-browser --color-scheme dark open https://example.com
+
+# Or via environment variable
+AGENT_BROWSER_COLOR_SCHEME=dark agent-browser open https://example.com
+
+# Or set during session (persists for subsequent commands)
+agent-browser set media dark
+```
+
+### Visual Browser (Debugging)
+
+```bash
+agent-browser --headed open https://example.com
+agent-browser highlight @e1          # Highlight element
+agent-browser record start demo.webm # Record session
+agent-browser profiler start         # Start Chrome DevTools profiling
+agent-browser profiler stop trace.json # Stop and save profile (path optional)
+```
+
+### Local Files (PDFs, HTML)
+
+```bash
+# Open local files with file:// URLs
+agent-browser --allow-file-access open file:///path/to/document.pdf
+agent-browser --allow-file-access open file:///path/to/page.html
+agent-browser screenshot output.png
+```
+
+### Project Policy
+
+- `--profile` / `AGENT_BROWSER_PROFILE` are forbidden
+- `--channel` / `AGENT_BROWSER_CHANNEL` are forbidden
+- Use existing browser sessions (default CDP `localhost:9333`) or pass `--cdp` explicitly
+
+### Stealth Mode (Always On)
+
+Stealth is always active -- no flags needed. All sessions automatically apply anti-detection patches (navigator.webdriver removal, UA override, plugin injection, WebGL masking, humanized interactions, etc.).
+
+Chromium launches in managed mode use Chrome channel by default for a genuine browser binary fingerprint.
+
+For best results against strong bot detection, use `--headed` and `--session-name`.
+
+### Auto Region Detection
+
+The browser automatically detects the target site's region from the URL TLD and sets matching locale, timezone, and Accept-Language headers. For example, navigating to `shopee.tw` sets locale `zh-TW` and timezone `Asia/Taipei`. This reduces server-side risk scoring from region-signal mismatches.
+
+Override: `AGENT_BROWSER_LOCALE`, `AGENT_BROWSER_TIMEZONE` env vars.
+
+### Captcha Detection & Auto-Retry
+
+When a navigation lands on a captcha/verification page, the browser automatically retries up to 2 times with randomized backoff (3-7s). If detection persists, a warning is shown suggesting `--headed` mode or `--session-name` persistence.
+
+### iOS Simulator (Mobile Safari)
+
+```bash
+# List available iOS simulators
+agent-browser device list
+
+# Launch Safari on a specific device
+agent-browser -p ios --device "iPhone 16 Pro" open https://example.com
+
+# Same workflow as desktop - snapshot, interact, re-snapshot
+agent-browser -p ios snapshot -i
+agent-browser -p ios tap @e1          # Tap (alias for click)
+agent-browser -p ios fill @e2 "text"
+agent-browser -p ios swipe up         # Mobile-specific gesture
+
+# Take screenshot
+agent-browser -p ios screenshot mobile.png
+
+# Close session (shuts down simulator)
+agent-browser -p ios close
+```
+
+**Requirements:** macOS with Xcode, Appium (`npm install -g appium && appium driver install xcuitest`)
+
+**Real devices:** Works with physical iOS devices if pre-configured. Use `--device "<UDID>"` where UDID is from `xcrun xctrace list devices`.
+
+## Diffing (Verifying Changes)
+
+Use `diff snapshot` after performing an action to verify it had the intended effect. This compares the current accessibility tree against the last snapshot taken in the session.
+
+```bash
+# Typical workflow: snapshot -> action -> diff
+agent-browser snapshot -i          # Take baseline snapshot
+agent-browser click @e2            # Perform action
+agent-browser diff snapshot        # See what changed (auto-compares to last snapshot)
+```
+
+For visual regression testing or monitoring:
+
+```bash
+# Save a baseline screenshot, then compare later
+agent-browser screenshot baseline.png
+# ... time passes or changes are made ...
+agent-browser diff screenshot --baseline baseline.png
+
+# Compare staging vs production
+agent-browser diff url https://staging.example.com https://prod.example.com --screenshot
+```
+
+`diff snapshot` output uses `+` for additions and `-` for removals, similar to git diff. `diff screenshot` produces a diff image with changed pixels highlighted in red, plus a mismatch percentage.
+
+## Timeouts and Slow Pages
+
+The default Playwright timeout is 25 seconds for local browsers. This can be overridden with the `AGENT_BROWSER_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT` environment variable (value in milliseconds). For slow websites or large pages, use explicit waits instead of relying on the default timeout:
+
+```bash
+# Wait for network activity to settle (best for slow pages)
+agent-browser wait --load networkidle
+
+# Wait for a specific element to appear
+agent-browser wait "#content"
+agent-browser wait @e1
+
+# Wait for a specific URL pattern (useful after redirects)
+agent-browser wait --url "**/dashboard"
+
+# Wait for a JavaScript condition
+agent-browser wait --fn "document.readyState === 'complete'"
+
+# Wait a fixed duration (milliseconds) as a last resort
+agent-browser wait 5000
+
+# Random wait between 2-5 seconds (useful for anti-detection)
+agent-browser wait 2000-5000
+```
+
+When dealing with consistently slow websites, use `wait --load networkidle` after `open` to ensure the page is fully loaded before taking a snapshot. If a specific element is slow to render, wait for it directly with `wait <selector>` or `wait @ref`.
+
+### Humanized Interactions
+
+agent-browser automatically humanizes interactions to avoid behavioral detection:
+
+- **Randomized typing**: `type --delay` varies each keystroke delay by +-40%
+- **Random wait ranges**: `wait 2000-5000` pauses for a random duration in that range
+- **Bezier curve mouse**: Before every `click`, the mouse moves along a natural-looking curve
+
+These behaviors are always active. For sensitive sites, combine with `--headed` and `--session-name` for best results.
+
+## Session Management and Cleanup
+
+When running multiple agents or automations concurrently, always use named sessions to avoid conflicts:
+
+```bash
+# Each agent gets its own isolated session
+agent-browser --session agent1 open site-a.com
+agent-browser --session agent2 open site-b.com
+
+# Check active sessions
+agent-browser session list
+```
+
+Always close your browser session when done to avoid leaked processes:
+
+```bash
+agent-browser close                    # Close default session
+agent-browser --session agent1 close   # Close specific session
+```
+
+If a previous session was not closed properly, the daemon may still be running. Use `agent-browser close` to clean it up before starting new work.
+
+## Ref Lifecycle (Important)
+
+Refs (`@e1`, `@e2`, etc.) are invalidated when the page changes. Always re-snapshot after:
+
+- Clicking links or buttons that navigate
+- Form submissions
+- Dynamic content loading (dropdowns, modals)
+
+```bash
+agent-browser click @e5              # Navigates to new page
+agent-browser snapshot -i            # MUST re-snapshot
+agent-browser click @e1              # Use new refs
+```
+
+## Annotated Screenshots (Vision Mode)
+
+Use `--annotate` to take a screenshot with numbered labels overlaid on interactive elements. Each label `[N]` maps to ref `@eN`. This also caches refs, so you can interact with elements immediately without a separate snapshot.
+
+```bash
+agent-browser screenshot --annotate
+# Output includes the image path and a legend:
+#   [1] @e1 button "Submit"
+#   [2] @e2 link "Home"
+#   [3] @e3 textbox "Email"
+agent-browser click @e2              # Click using ref from annotated screenshot
+```
+
+Use annotated screenshots when:
+- The page has unlabeled icon buttons or visual-only elements
+- You need to verify visual layout or styling
+- Canvas or chart elements are present (invisible to text snapshots)
+- You need spatial reasoning about element positions
+
+## Semantic Locators (Alternative to Refs)
+
+When refs are unavailable or unreliable, use semantic locators:
+
+```bash
+agent-browser find text "Sign In" click
+agent-browser find label "Email" fill "user@test.com"
+agent-browser find role button click --name "Submit"
+agent-browser find placeholder "Search" type "query"
+agent-browser find testid "submit-btn" click
+```
+
+## JavaScript Evaluation (eval)
+
+Use `eval` to run JavaScript in the browser context. **Shell quoting can corrupt complex expressions** -- use `--stdin` or `-b` to avoid issues.
+
+```bash
+# Simple expressions work with regular quoting
+agent-browser eval 'document.title'
+agent-browser eval 'document.querySelectorAll("img").length'
+
+# Complex JS: use --stdin with heredoc (RECOMMENDED)
+agent-browser eval --stdin <<'EVALEOF'
+JSON.stringify(
+  Array.from(document.querySelectorAll("img"))
+    .filter(i => !i.alt)
+    .map(i => ({ src: i.src.split("/").pop(), width: i.width }))
+)
+EVALEOF
+
+# Alternative: base64 encoding (avoids all shell escaping issues)
+agent-browser eval -b "$(echo -n 'Array.from(document.querySelectorAll("a")).map(a => a.href)' | base64)"
+```
+
+**Why this matters:** When the shell processes your command, inner double quotes, `!` characters (history expansion), backticks, and `$()` can all corrupt the JavaScript before it reaches agent-browser. The `--stdin` and `-b` flags bypass shell interpretation entirely.
+
+**Rules of thumb:**
+- Single-line, no nested quotes -> regular `eval 'expression'` with single quotes is fine
+- Nested quotes, arrow functions, template literals, or multiline -> use `eval --stdin <<'EVALEOF'`
+- Programmatic/generated scripts -> use `eval -b` with base64
+
+## Configuration File
+
+Create `agent-browser.json` in the project root for persistent settings:
+
+```json
+{
+  "headed": true,
+  "proxy": "http://localhost:8080"
+}
+```
+
+Priority (lowest to highest): `~/.agent-browser/config.json` < `./agent-browser.json` < env vars < CLI flags. Use `--config <path>` or `AGENT_BROWSER_CONFIG` env var for a custom config file (exits with error if missing/invalid). All CLI options map to camelCase keys (e.g., `--executable-path` -> `"executablePath"`). Boolean flags accept `true`/`false` values (e.g., `--headed false` overrides config). Extensions from user and project configs are merged, not replaced.

+
+## Basic Login Flow
+
+```bash
+# Navigate to login page
+agent-browser open https://app.example.com/login
+agent-browser wait --load networkidle
+
+# Get form elements
+agent-browser snapshot -i
+# Output: @e1 [input type="email"], @e2 [input type="password"], @e3 [button] "Sign In"
+
+# Fill credentials
+agent-browser fill @e1 "user@example.com"
+agent-browser fill @e2 "password123"
+
+# Submit
+agent-browser click @e3
+agent-browser wait --load networkidle
+
+# Verify login succeeded
+agent-browser get url  # Should be dashboard, not login
+```
+
+## Saving Authentication State
+
+After logging in, save state for reuse:
+
+```bash
+# Login first (see above)
+agent-browser open https://app.example.com/login
+agent-browser snapshot -i
+agent-browser fill @e1 "user@example.com"
+agent-browser fill @e2 "password123"
+agent-browser click @e3
+agent-browser wait --url "**/dashboard"
+
+# Save authenticated state
+agent-browser state save ./auth-state.json
+```
+
+## Restoring Authentication
+
+Skip login by loading saved state:
+
+```bash
+# Load saved auth state
+agent-browser state load ./auth-state.json
+
+# Navigate directly to protected page
+agent-browser open https://app.example.com/dashboard
+
+# Verify authenticated
+agent-browser snapshot -i
+```
+
+## OAuth / SSO Flows
+
+For OAuth redirects:
+
+```bash
+# Start OAuth flow
+agent-browser open https://app.example.com/auth/google
+
+# Handle redirects automatically
+agent-browser wait --url "**/accounts.google.com**"
+agent-browser snapshot -i
+
+# Fill Google credentials
+agent-browser fill @e1 "user@gmail.com"
+agent-browser click @e2  # Next button
+agent-browser wait 2000
+agent-browser snapshot -i
+agent-browser fill @e3 "password"
+agent-browser click @e4  # Sign in
+
+# Wait for redirect back
+agent-browser wait --url "**/app.example.com**"
+agent-browser state save ./oauth-state.json
+```
+
+## Two-Factor Authentication
+
+Handle 2FA with manual intervention:
+
+```bash
+# Login with credentials
+agent-browser open https://app.example.com/login --headed  # Show browser
+agent-browser snapshot -i
+agent-browser fill @e1 "user@example.com"
+agent-browser fill @e2 "password123"
+agent-browser click @e3
+
+# Wait for user to complete 2FA manually
+echo "Complete 2FA in the browser window..."
+agent-browser wait --url "**/dashboard" --timeout 120000
+
+# Save state after 2FA
+agent-browser state save ./2fa-state.json
+```
+
+## HTTP Basic Auth
+
+For sites using HTTP Basic Authentication:
+
+```bash
+# Set credentials before navigation
+agent-browser set credentials username password
+
+# Navigate to protected resource
+agent-browser open https://protected.example.com/api
+```
+
+## Cookie-Based Auth
+
+Manually set authentication cookies:
+
+```bash
+# Set auth cookie
+agent-browser cookies set session_token "abc123xyz"
+
+# Navigate to protected page
+agent-browser open https://app.example.com/dashboard
+```
+
+## Token Refresh Handling
+
+For sessions with expiring tokens:
+
+```bash
+#!/bin/bash
+# Wrapper that handles token refresh
+
+STATE_FILE="./auth-state.json"
+
+# Try loading existing state
+if [[ -f "$STATE_FILE" ]]; then
+    agent-browser state load "$STATE_FILE"
+    agent-browser open https://app.example.com/dashboard
+
+    # Check if session is still valid
+    URL=$(agent-browser get url)
+    if [[ "$URL" == *"/login"* ]]; then
+        echo "Session expired, re-authenticating..."
+        # Perform fresh 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 "$STATE_FILE"
+    fi
+else
+    # First-time login
+    agent-browser open https://app.example.com/login
+    # ... login flow ...
+fi
+```
+
+## Security Best Practices
+
+1. **Never commit state files** - They contain session tokens
+   ```bash
+   echo "*.auth-state.json" >> .gitignore
+   ```
+
+2. **Use environment variables for credentials**
+   ```bash
+   agent-browser fill @e1 "$APP_USERNAME"
+   agent-browser fill @e2 "$APP_PASSWORD"
+   ```
+
+3. **Clean up after automation**
+   ```bash
+   agent-browser cookies clear
+   rm -f ./auth-state.json
+   ```
+
+4. **Use short-lived sessions for CI/CD**
+   ```bash
+   # Don't persist state in CI
+   agent-browser open https://app.example.com/login
+   # ... login and perform actions ...
+   agent-browser close  # Session ends, nothing persisted
+   ```
