- ## 1. Project Identity
8
-
9
- - **Name**: Web Agent Bridge (WAB)
10
- - **Tagline**: Open protocol for AI agent ↔ website interaction
11
- - **Version**: 1.2.0
12
- - **Protocol Version**: WAB Protocol 1.0
13
- - **License**: MIT
14
- - **Language**: JavaScript / Node.js
15
- - **Created**: 2026
16
- - **Website**: https://webagentbridge.com

24
-
25
- ## 2. Problem Statement
26
-
27
- The current web was designed for humans browsing with screens. AI agents attempting to interact with websites face:
28
-
29
- - **Fragile selectors**: CSS/XPath selectors break when UI changes
30
- - **No permission model**: Agents scrape without consent or boundaries
31
- - **Bias toward large platforms**: AI models recommend known brands over small businesses
32
- - **No standard protocol**: Each automation tool invents its own approach
33
- - **JavaScript dependency**: Many agents cannot execute JavaScript
34
-
35
- WAB solves all of these by providing a standardized, fair, permission-aware protocol for AI-website interaction.
36
-
37
- ---
38
-
39
- ## 3. Architecture
40
-
41
- WAB consists of three decoupled layers:
42
-
43
- ### 3.1 WAB Protocol (Specification)
44
- The protocol defines:
45
- - **Discovery Protocol**: How sites declare capabilities via `agent-bridge.json`
46
- - **Command Protocol**: Standardized JSON format for actions
47
- - **Lifecycle Protocol**: Five-phase interaction model
48
- - **Security Model**: Permission-based access control
49
- - **Fairness Protocol**: Anti-bias algorithms for equitable discovery
50
-
51
- ### 3.2 WAB Runtime (JavaScript SDK)
52
- Client-side script (`ai-agent-bridge.js`) that:
53
- - Exposes `window.AICommands` interface
54
- - Registers and executes actions
55
- - Enforces permissions and rate limits
56
- - Provides auto-discovery of page elements
57
- - Falls back to NoScript mode when JS is disabled
58
-
59
- ### 3.3 WAB Transport (Server)
60
- Node.js server providing:
61
- - REST API endpoints (`/api/wab/*`)
62
- - License verification and tier management
63
- - Analytics and audit logging
64
- - Stripe billing integration
65
- - WebSocket real-time analytics
66
-
67

68
-
69
- ## 4. Discovery Protocol
70
-
71
- Websites serve a discovery document at one of these URLs:
72
- - `/agent-bridge.json`
73
- - `/.well-known/wab.json`
74
- - `/api/wab/discover`
75
-
76
- Example discovery document:
77
-
78
- ```json

153
-
154
- ## 6. Lifecycle Protocol
155
-
156
- Every agent interaction follows five phases:
157
-
158
- 1. **Discover** — Agent fetches `agent-bridge.json` to learn site capabilities
159
- 2. **Authenticate** — Agent presents license key or API key
160
- 3. **Plan** — Agent analyzes available actions and plans execution
161
- 4. **Execute** — Agent sends commands; site processes them
162
- 5. **Confirm** — Agent verifies results; site logs the interaction
163
-
164
- ---
165
-
166
- ## 7. Fairness Engine
167
-
168
- WAB includes a built-in fairness system to prevent AI bias:
169
-
170
- - **Neutrality Score** (0-100): Calculated per site based on config completeness, trust signals, commission transparency
171
- - **Anti-monopoly**: Agents must consider small businesses alongside large platforms
172
- - **Transparent commissions**: Sites declare commission rates in discovery document
173
- - **Local priority**: Supports `support_local` flag for local business preference
174
-
175
- ---
176
-
177
- ## 8. MCP Integration
178
-
179
- The `wab-mcp-adapter` package converts WAB commands into MCP (Model Context Protocol) tools:
180
-
181
- ```bash
182
- npm install wab-mcp-adapter
183
- ```
184
-
185
- ```javascript
186
- const { WABMCPAdapter } = require('wab-mcp-adapter');
187
- const adapter = new WABMCPAdapter('https://example.com');
188
- await adapter.connect();
189
- const tools = adapter.getMCPTools(); // Returns MCP-compatible tool definitions
190
- ```
191
-
192
- This means any MCP-enabled AI agent (Claude, LangChain, etc.) can interact with any WAB-enabled website.

248
- ## 12. Comparison with Alternatives
249
-
250
- ### WAB vs Screen Scraping (Puppeteer, Playwright)
251
- - WAB uses declared actions; scraping guesses from DOM
252
- - WAB has permission model; scraping has none
253
- - WAB survives UI changes; scraping breaks
254
-
255
- ### WAB vs Browser Automation (Selenium, Cypress)
256
- - WAB works without a browser; automation needs one
257
- - WAB is website-initiated; automation is agent-initiated
258
- - WAB has built-in fairness; automation has bias
259
-
260
- ### WAB vs OpenAPI
261
- - OpenAPI describes REST APIs; WAB describes website interactions
262
- - WAB includes visual elements (click, scroll); OpenAPI is data-only
263
- - WAB has discovery protocol; OpenAPI needs manual URL
264
-
265
- ### WAB vs MCP (Model Context Protocol)
266
- - WAB and MCP are complementary, not competing
267
- - WAB handles website interaction; MCP handles tool orchestration
268
- - `wab-mcp-adapter` bridges both protocols
269
-

272
- ## 13. Frequently Asked Questions
273
-
274
- **Q: Is WAB free?**
275
- A: The core protocol and runtime are MIT-licensed and free forever. Premium features (analytics, CRM, stealth mode) require a subscription.
276
-
277
- **Q: Does WAB work without JavaScript?**
278
- A: Yes. The NoScript fallback provides meta tags, link elements, and REST API endpoints for HTTP-only agents.
279
-
280
- **Q: How does WAB prevent abuse?**
281
- A: Through permission model (sites declare what agents can do), rate limiting, blocked selectors, and audit logging.
282
-
283
- **Q: Can I use WAB with ChatGPT/Claude?**
284
- A: Yes. Via the MCP adapter, any MCP-enabled AI can interact with WAB sites. Direct API access is also available.
285
-
286
- **Q: Is there a WordPress plugin?**
287
- A: Yes. The official WordPress plugin adds discovery protocol, REST API endpoints, and NoScript fallback with one click.
288
-
289
- **Q: What makes WAB different from robots.txt?**
290
- A: robots.txt says "what you can crawl." WAB says "what you can do" — it's actionable, not just permissive.

24
+
25
+ ## 2. Problem Statement
26
+
27
+ The current web was designed for humans browsing with screens. AI agents attempting to interact with websites face:
28
+
29
+ - **Fragile selectors**: CSS/XPath selectors break when UI changes
30
+ - **No permission model**: Agents scrape without consent or boundaries
31
+ - **Bias toward large platforms**: AI models recommend known brands over small businesses
32
+ - **No standard protocol**: Each automation tool invents its own approach
33
+ - **JavaScript dependency**: Many agents cannot execute JavaScript
34
+
35
+ WAB solves all of these by providing a standardized, fair, permission-aware protocol for AI-website interaction.
36
+
37
+ ---
38
+
39
+ ## 3. Architecture
40
+
41
+ WAB consists of three decoupled layers:
42
+
43
+ ### 3.1 WAB Protocol (Specification)
44
+ The protocol defines:
45
+ - **Discovery Protocol**: How sites declare capabilities via `agent-bridge.json`
46
+ - **Command Protocol**: Standardized JSON format for actions
47
+ - **Lifecycle Protocol**: Five-phase interaction model
48
+ - **Security Model**: Permission-based access control
49
+ - **Fairness Protocol**: Anti-bias algorithms for equitable discovery
50
+
51
+ ### 3.2 WAB Runtime (JavaScript SDK)
52
+ Client-side script (`ai-agent-bridge.js`) that:
53
+ - Exposes `window.AICommands` interface
54
+ - Registers and executes actions
55
+ - Enforces permissions and rate limits
56
+ - Provides auto-discovery of page elements
57
+ - Falls back to NoScript mode when JS is disabled
58
+
59
+ ### 3.3 WAB Transport (Server)
60
+ Node.js server providing:
61
+ - REST API endpoints (`/api/wab/*`)
62
+ - License verification and tier management
63
+ - Analytics and audit logging
64
+ - Stripe billing integration
65
+ - WebSocket real-time analytics
66
+
67
+ ---
68
+
69
+ ## 4. Discovery Protocol
70
+
71
+ Websites serve a discovery document at one of these URLs:
72
+ - `/agent-bridge.json`
73
+ - `/.well-known/wab.json`
74
+ - `/api/wab/discover`
75
+
76
+ Example discovery document:
77
+
78
+ ```json
79
+ {
80
+ "wab_version": "1.2.0",
81
+ "protocol": "1.0",
82
+ "site": {
83
+ "name": "Example Store",
84
+ "domain": "example.com",

104
+ {"name": "addToCart", "description": "Add item to cart", "category": "commerce"},
105
+ {"name": "checkout", "description": "Proceed to checkout", "category": "commerce"}
106
+ ],
107
+ "restrictions": {
108
+ "rate_limit": 60,
109
+ "blocked_selectors": [".private", "[data-no-agent]"]
110
+ },
111

113
+ }
114
+ ```
115
+
116

117
+
118
+ ## 5. Command Protocol
119
+
120
+ Commands follow this JSON format:
121
+
122
+ ```json
123

124
+ "action": "click",
125
+ "target": "#submit-button",
126

+ "sessionId": "abc123"
133
+ }
134
+ }
135
+ ```

185
+ ```javascript
186
+ const { WABMCPAdapter } = require('wab-mcp-adapter');
187
+ const adapter = new WABMCPAdapter('https://example.com');
188
+ await adapter.connect();
189
+ const tools = adapter.getMCPTools(); // Returns MCP-compatible tool definitions
190
+ ```
191
+
192
+ This means any MCP-enabled AI agent (Claude, LangChain, etc.) can interact with any WAB-enabled website.

253
+ - WAB survives UI changes; scraping breaks
254
+
255
+ ### WAB vs Browser Automation (Selenium, Cypress)
256
+ - WAB works without a browser; automation needs one
257
+ - WAB is website-initiated; automation is agent-initiated
258
+ - WAB has built-in fairness; automation has bias
259
+
260
+ ### WAB vs OpenAPI
261
+ - OpenAPI describes REST APIs; WAB describes website interactions
262
+ - WAB includes visual elements (click, scroll); OpenAPI is data-only
263
+ - WAB has discovery protocol; OpenAPI needs manual URL
264
+
265
+ ### WAB vs MCP (Model Context Protocol)
266
+ - WAB and MCP are complementary, not competing
267
+ - WAB handles website interaction; MCP handles tool orchestration
268
+ - `wab-mcp-adapter` bridges both protocols

272
+ ## 13. Frequently Asked Questions
273
+
274
+ **Q: Is WAB free?**
275
+ A: The core protocol and runtime are MIT-licensed and free forever. Premium features (analytics, CRM, stealth mode) require a subscription.
276
+
277
+ **Q: Does WAB work without JavaScript?**
278
+ A: Yes. The NoScript fallback provides meta tags, link elements, and REST API endpoints for HTTP-only agents.
279
+
280
+ **Q: How does WAB prevent abuse?**
281
+ A: Through permission model (sites declare what agents can do), rate limiting, blocked selectors, and audit logging.
282
+
283
+ **Q: Can I use WAB with ChatGPT/Claude?**
284
+ A: Yes. Via the MCP adapter, any MCP-enabled AI can interact with WAB sites. Direct API access is also available.
285
+
286
+ **Q: Is there a WordPress plugin?**
287
+ A: Yes. The official WordPress plugin adds discovery protocol, REST API endpoints, and NoScript fallback with one click.
288
+
289
+ **Q: What makes WAB different from robots.txt?**
290
+ A: robots.txt says "what you can crawl." WAB says "what you can do" — it's actionable, not just permissive.
