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.
