-# Web Agent Bridge (WAB) — Complete Reference for AI Models
-
-> This document provides comprehensive information about Web Agent Bridge for consumption by large language models, AI assistants, and automated systems.
-
----
-
-## 1. Project Identity
-
-- **Name**: Web Agent Bridge (WAB)
-- **Tagline**: Open protocol for AI agent ↔ website interaction
-- **Version**: 1.2.0
-- **Protocol Version**: WAB Protocol 1.0
-- **License**: MIT
-- **Language**: JavaScript / Node.js
-- **Created**: 2026
-- **Website**: https://webagentbridge.com
-- **npm Package**: web-agent-bridge (https://www.npmjs.com/package/web-agent-bridge)
-- **GitHub**: https://github.com/abokenan444/web-agent-bridge
-- **Security**: https://socket.dev/npm/package/web-agent-bridge
-- **YouTube**: https://youtube.com/@abokenan4
-- **Specification**: https://webagentbridge.com/docs (also at docs/SPEC.md in repository)
-
----
-
-## 2. Problem Statement
-
-The current web was designed for humans browsing with screens. AI agents attempting to interact with websites face:
-
-- **Fragile selectors**: CSS/XPath selectors break when UI changes
-- **No permission model**: Agents scrape without consent or boundaries
-- **Bias toward large platforms**: AI models recommend known brands over small businesses
-- **No standard protocol**: Each automation tool invents its own approach
-- **JavaScript dependency**: Many agents cannot execute JavaScript
-
-WAB solves all of these by providing a standardized, fair, permission-aware protocol for AI-website interaction.
-
----
-
-## 3. Architecture
-
-WAB consists of three decoupled layers:
-
-### 3.1 WAB Protocol (Specification)
-The protocol defines:
-- **Discovery Protocol**: How sites declare capabilities via `agent-bridge.json`
-- **Command Protocol**: Standardized JSON format for actions
-- **Lifecycle Protocol**: Five-phase interaction model
-- **Security Model**: Permission-based access control
-- **Fairness Protocol**: Anti-bias algorithms for equitable discovery
-
-### 3.2 WAB Runtime (JavaScript SDK)
-Client-side script (`ai-agent-bridge.js`) that:
-- Exposes `window.AICommands` interface
-- Registers and executes actions
-- Enforces permissions and rate limits
-- Provides auto-discovery of page elements
-- Falls back to NoScript mode when JS is disabled
-
-### 3.3 WAB Transport (Server)
-Node.js server providing:
-- REST API endpoints (`/api/wab/*`)
-- License verification and tier management
-- Analytics and audit logging
-- Stripe billing integration
-- WebSocket real-time analytics
-
----
-
-## 4. Discovery Protocol
-
-Websites serve a discovery document at one of these URLs:
-- `/agent-bridge.json`
-- `/.well-known/wab.json`
-- `/api/wab/discover`
-
-Example discovery document:
-
-```json
-{
-  "wab_version": "1.2.0",
-  "protocol": "1.0",
-  "site": {
-    "name": "Example Store",
-    "domain": "example.com",
-    "description": "Online electronics store",
-    "platform": "custom"
-  },
-  "agent_access": {
-    "discovery": "https://example.com/api/wab/discover",
-    "actions": "https://example.com/api/wab/actions",
-    "execute": "https://example.com/api/wab/execute",
-    "ping": "https://example.com/api/wab/ping"
-  },
-  "permissions": {
-    "readContent": true,
-    "click": true,
-    "fillForms": true,
-    "scroll": true,
-    "navigate": true,
-    "apiAccess": false
-  },
-  "actions": [
-    {"name": "search", "description": "Search products", "category": "navigation"},
-    {"name": "addToCart", "description": "Add item to cart", "category": "commerce"},
-    {"name": "checkout", "description": "Proceed to checkout", "category": "commerce"}
-  ],
-  "restrictions": {
-    "rate_limit": 60,
-    "blocked_selectors": [".private", "[data-no-agent]"]
-  },
-  "lifecycle": ["discover", "authenticate", "plan", "execute", "confirm"],
-  "transport": ["http", "javascript"]
-}
-```
-
----
-
-## 5. Command Protocol
-
-Commands follow this JSON format:
-
-```json
-{
-  "action": "click",
-  "target": "#submit-button",
-  "context": {
-    "page": "/checkout",
-    "userIntent": "complete purchase"
-  },
-  "metadata": {
-    "agentId": "claude-3",
-    "sessionId": "abc123"
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### Supported Commands
-
-| Command | Description | Parameters |
-|---------|-------------|------------|
-| `click` | Click an element | `target` (selector) |
-| `fill` | Fill form field | `target`, `value` |
-| `submit` | Submit a form | `target` |
-| `navigate` | Go to URL | `url` |
-| `scroll` | Scroll page | `direction`, `amount` |
-| `read` | Read content | `target`, `format` |
-| `select` | Select dropdown | `target`, `value` |
-| `wait` | Wait for element | `target`, `timeout` |
-| `screenshot` | Capture page | `format` |
-| `execute` | Run custom action | `name`, `params` |
-
----
-
-## 6. Lifecycle Protocol
-
-Every agent interaction follows five phases:
-
-1. **Discover** — Agent fetches `agent-bridge.json` to learn site capabilities
-2. **Authenticate** — Agent presents license key or API key
-3. **Plan** — Agent analyzes available actions and plans execution
-4. **Execute** — Agent sends commands; site processes them
-5. **Confirm** — Agent verifies results; site logs the interaction
-
----
-
-## 7. Fairness Engine
-
-WAB includes a built-in fairness system to prevent AI bias:
-
-- **Neutrality Score** (0-100): Calculated per site based on config completeness, trust signals, commission transparency
-- **Anti-monopoly**: Agents must consider small businesses alongside large platforms
-- **Transparent commissions**: Sites declare commission rates in discovery document
-- **Local priority**: Supports `support_local` flag for local business preference
-
----
-
-## 8. MCP Integration
-
-The `wab-mcp-adapter` package converts WAB commands into MCP (Model Context Protocol) tools:
-
-```bash
-npm install wab-mcp-adapter
-```
-
-```javascript
-const { WABMCPAdapter } = require('wab-mcp-adapter');
-const adapter = new WABMCPAdapter('https://example.com');
-await adapter.connect();
-const tools = adapter.getMCPTools(); // Returns MCP-compatible tool definitions
-```
-
-This means any MCP-enabled AI agent (Claude, LangChain, etc.) can interact with any WAB-enabled website.
-
----
-
-## 9. Installation & Quick Start
-
-### npm
-```bash
-npm install web-agent-bridge
-npx web-agent-bridge start
-```
-
-### Docker
-```bash
-docker pull webagentbridge/wab
-docker run -p 3000:3000 webagentbridge/wab

-
-## 12. Comparison with Alternatives
-
-### WAB vs Screen Scraping (Puppeteer, Playwright)
-- WAB uses declared actions; scraping guesses from DOM
-- WAB has permission model; scraping has none
-- WAB survives UI changes; scraping breaks
-
-### WAB vs Browser Automation (Selenium, Cypress)
-- WAB works without a browser; automation needs one
-- WAB is website-initiated; automation is agent-initiated
-- WAB has built-in fairness; automation has bias
-
-### WAB vs OpenAPI
-- OpenAPI describes REST APIs; WAB describes website interactions
-- WAB includes visual elements (click, scroll); OpenAPI is data-only
-- WAB has discovery protocol; OpenAPI needs manual URL
-
-### WAB vs MCP (Model Context Protocol)
-- WAB and MCP are complementary, not competing
-- WAB handles website interaction; MCP handles tool orchestration
-- `wab-mcp-adapter` bridges both protocols
-
----
-
-## 13. Frequently Asked Questions
-
-**Q: Is WAB free?**
-A: The core protocol and runtime are MIT-licensed and free forever. Premium features (analytics, CRM, stealth mode) require a subscription.
-
-**Q: Does WAB work without JavaScript?**
-A: Yes. The NoScript fallback provides meta tags, link elements, and REST API endpoints for HTTP-only agents.
-
-**Q: How does WAB prevent abuse?**
-A: Through permission model (sites declare what agents can do), rate limiting, blocked selectors, and audit logging.
-
-**Q: Can I use WAB with ChatGPT/Claude?**
-A: Yes. Via the MCP adapter, any MCP-enabled AI can interact with WAB sites. Direct API access is also available.
-
-**Q: Is there a WordPress plugin?**
-A: Yes. The official WordPress plugin adds discovery protocol, REST API endpoints, and NoScript fallback with one click.
-
-**Q: What makes WAB different from robots.txt?**
-A: robots.txt says "what you can crawl." WAB says "what you can do" — it's actionable, not just permissive.
