# Remote Browser Use this skill when an agent runs on a machine without a usable local Chrome and needs an isolated browser. The current Browser Use CLI runs Python from stdin. Do not use the removed `open`, `state`, `click`, `input`, `tab`, `cloud connect`, or `--connect` commands. ## Check the CLI ```bash browser-use --doctor browser-use skill show ``` If setup fails, follow the current [Browser Use skill](../browser-use/SKILL.md). ## Start an isolated browser Authenticate once: ```bash browser-use auth login ``` Pick a short unique name. `r7k2` below is only an example. ```bash browser-use <<'PY' start_remote_daemon("r7k2") PY ``` Use the same name for every command in this browser: ```bash BU_NAME=r7k2 browser-use <<'PY' new_tab("https://example.com") wait_for_load() print(page_info()) PY ``` Each remote daemon is a separate Browser Use Cloud browser. Use a different name for each parallel task. Remote browsers can bill until they stop or time out. ## Inspect and interact Helpers are pre-imported. Keep multi-step work in one heredoc when practical. ```bash BU_NAME=r7k2 browser-use <<'PY' print(page_info()) print(js("document.title")) fill_input('input[name="q"]', "browser automation") press_key("Enter") wait_for_load() print(page_info()) PY ``` Useful helpers: - Navigate: `new_tab(url)`, `goto_url(url)`, `wait_for_load()` - Inspect: `page_info()`, `js(code)`, `cdp(method, ...)` - Interact: `click_at_xy(x, y)`, `type_text(text)`, `fill_input(selector, text)`, `press_key(key)`, `scroll(x, y)` - Tabs: `list_tabs()`, `switch_tab(target)`, `close_tab(target)` - Files and proof: `capture_screenshot()`, `wait_for_element(selector)` Prefer the accessibility tree for element discovery: ```python nodes = cdp("Accessibility.getFullAXTree")["nodes"] ``` Use a targeted `js(...)` query when the accessibility tree lacks the element. Verify each action with `page_info()`, a focused DOM check, or a screenshot. ## Stop the browser When the work is done, stop the exact named browser: ```bash browser-use <<'PY' stop_remote_daemon("r7k2") PY ``` Do not leave an unused remote browser running.
