Agentic Browser

Browser automation for AI agents via inference.sh.

Quick Start

curl -fsSL https://cli.inference.sh | sh && infsh login

# Open a page and get interactive elements
infsh app run agentic-browser --function open --input '{"url": "https://example.com"}' --session new

Core Workflow

Every browser automation follows this pattern:

1. Open: Navigate to URL, get element refs
2. Snapshot: Re-fetch elements after DOM changes
3. Interact: Use @e refs to click, fill, etc.
4. Re-snapshot: After navigation, get fresh refs

# Start session
RESULT=$(infsh app run agentic-browser --function open --session new --input '{
  "url": "https://example.com/login"
}')
SESSION_ID=$(echo $RESULT | jq -r '.session_id')

# Elements returned like: @e1 [input] "Email", @e2 [input] "Password", @e3 [button] "Sign In"

# Fill form
infsh app run agentic-browser --function interact --session $SESSION_ID --input '{
  "action": "fill", "ref": "@e1", "text": "[e-mail]"
}'

infsh app run agentic-browser --function interact --session $SESSION_ID --input '{
  "action": "fill", "ref": "@e2", "text": "password123"
}'

# Click submit
infsh app run agentic-browser --function interact --session $SESSION_ID --input '{
  "action": "click", "ref": "@e3"
}'

# Close when done
infsh app run agentic-browser --function close --session $SESSION_ID --input '{}'

Functions

open

Navigate to URL and configure browser. Returns page snapshot with @e refs.

infsh app run agentic-browser --function open --session new --input '{
  "url": "https://example.com",
  "width": 1280,
  "height": 720,
  "user_agent": "Mozilla/5.0..."
}'

Returns:

• url: Current page URL
• title: Page title
• elements: List of interactive elements with @e refs
• screenshot: Page screenshot (for vision agents)

snapshot

Re-fetch page state after DOM changes. Always call after clicks that navigate.

infsh app run agentic-browser --function snapshot --session $SESSION_ID --input '{}'

interact

Interact with elements using @e refs from snapshot.

Action	Description	Required Fields
click	Click element	ref
fill	Clear and type text	ref, text
type	Type text (no clear)	text
press	Press key	text (e.g., "Enter")
select	Select dropdown	ref, text
hover	Hover over element	ref
scroll	Scroll page	direction (up/down)
back	Go back in history	-
wait	Wait milliseconds	wait_ms

# Click
infsh app run agentic-browser --function interact --session $SESSION_ID --input '{
  "action": "click", "ref": "@e5"
}'

# Fill input
infsh app run agentic-browser --function interact --session $SESSION_ID --input '{
  "action": "fill", "ref": "@e1", "text": "[e-mail]"
}'

# Press Enter
infsh app run agentic-browser --function interact --session $SESSION_ID --input '{
  "action": "press", "text": "Enter"
}'

# Scroll down
infsh app run agentic-browser --function interact --session $SESSION_ID --input '{
  "action": "scroll", "direction": "down"
}'

screenshot

Take page screenshot.

infsh app run agentic-browser --function screenshot --session $SESSION_ID --input '{
  "full_page": true
}'

execute

Run JavaScript on the page.

infsh app run agentic-browser --function execute --session $SESSION_ID --input '{
  "code": "document.title"
}'

close

Close browser session.

infsh app run agentic-browser --function close --session $SESSION_ID --input '{}'

Element Refs

Elements are returned with @e refs like:

@e1 [a] "Home" href="/"
@e2 [input type="text"] placeholder="Search"
@e3 [button] "Submit"
@e4 [select] "Choose option"

Important: Refs are invalidated after navigation. Always re-snapshot after:

• Clicking links/buttons that navigate
• Form submissions
• Dynamic content loading

Examples

Form Submission

SESSION=$(infsh app run agentic-browser --function open --session new --input '{
  "url": "https://example.com/contact"
}' | jq -r '.session_id')

# Get elements: @e1 [input] "Name", @e2 [input] "Email", @e3 [textarea] "Message", @e4 [button] "Send"

infsh app run agentic-browser --function interact --session $SESSION --input '{"action": "fill", "ref": "@e1", "text": "John Doe"}'
infsh app run agentic-browser --function interact --session $SESSION --input '{"action": "fill", "ref": "@e2", "text": "[e-mail]"}'
infsh app run agentic-browser --function interact --session $SESSION --input '{"action": "fill", "ref": "@e3", "text": "Hello!"}'
infsh app run agentic-browser --function interact --session $SESSION --input '{"action": "click", "ref": "@e4"}'

# Check result
infsh app run agentic-browser --function snapshot --session $SESSION --input '{}'

infsh app run agentic-browser --function close --session $SESSION --input '{}'

Search and Extract

SESSION=$(infsh app run agentic-browser --function open --session new --input '{
  "url": "https://google.com"
}' | jq -r '.session_id')

# Fill search box and submit
infsh app run agentic-browser --function interact --session $SESSION --input '{"action": "fill", "ref": "@e1", "text": "weather today"}'
infsh app run agentic-browser --function interact --session $SESSION --input '{"action": "press", "text": "Enter"}'
infsh app run agentic-browser --function interact --session $SESSION --input '{"action": "wait", "wait_ms": 2000}'

# Get results page
infsh app run agentic-browser --function snapshot --session $SESSION --input '{}'

infsh app run agentic-browser --function close --session $SESSION --input '{}'

Extract Data with JavaScript

infsh app run agentic-browser --function execute --session $SESSION --input '{
  "code": "Array.from(document.querySelectorAll(\"h2\")).map(h => h.textContent)"
}'

Sessions

Browser state persists within a session. Always:

1. Start with --session new on first call
2. Use returned session_id for subsequent calls
3. Close session when done
