Browser AI Specialist
Overview
The Browser AI specialist wraps lightpanda-io/browser
— a lightweight, Zig-written headless browser engine built specifically for AI agent workloads.
It provides a composable pipeline for web navigation, DOM content extraction, and screenshot
capture, all accessible through a single execute() call or as standalone tool functions.
Capabilities
- browse: Load any HTTP/HTTPS URL in a headless browser context, following redirects and
capturing page-ready timing.
- web_automation: Drive the full browser pipeline — navigate, extract, screenshot — in a
single request with configurable parameters.
- scrape: Extract structured content from the rendered DOM using CSS selectors. Supports
plain text, raw HTML, and Markdown output formats.
- screenshot: Capture a PNG screenshot of the fully-rendered page at an arbitrary viewport
size. Returns the file path and image dimensions.
