BROWSER USE

- Browser Use Agents: give Browser Use a task and receive completed work. API V4 is current for new integrations.
- Browser Infrastructure: connect your agent or automation to managed browsers through SDK, REST, or CDP. Starts at $0.02/browser-hour.
- Developer tools: Open Source, Browser Harness, SDK, and MCP support the two products above.

# The browser for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and Gemini CLI

> One prompt installs the Browser Use CLI and its skill. The agent then drives your own logged-in Chrome, a Browser Use cloud stealth browser, or any CDP endpoint, and writes the Python it needs as it goes. Hermes Agent ships it as the default browser driver.

## Setup prompt

Paste into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another coding agent:

```text
Install or upgrade browser-use with `uv tool install --python 3.12 --upgrade --force 'browser-use @ git+https://github.com/browser-use/browser-use.git'`, run `browser-use skill install`, and connect it to my browser. Follow https://github.com/browser-use/browser-use if setup or connection fails.
```

Or by hand: `uv tool install browser-use`, then `browser-use skill install`. The skill is discoverable on skills.sh.

## Three browser modes

- Local Chrome: attaches to your running Chrome over CDP, so the agent works with your open tabs, cookies, extensions and logged-in sessions. Chrome asks once for remote-debugging permission.
- Browser Use cloud browsers: `browser-use auth login`, then `start_remote_daemon("name")`. $0.02 per browser-hour with stealth, CAPTCHA solving and residential proxies. One browser per parallel sub-agent.
- Any CDP endpoint: set `BU_CDP_URL` or `BU_CDP_WS`.

## What the agent gets

A CLI it runs Python inside: `new_tab`, `click_at_xy`, `type_text`, `page_info`, `js`, the accessibility tree via raw CDP, screenshots, downloads and uploads. The skill file tells the agent to target elements by role and name from the accessibility tree and to verify with page state. MIT licensed.

## Supported agents

Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Pi, OpenClaw, and Hermes Agent, where Browser Use is the default browser mode. Two MCP servers exist as well: `browser-harness-mcp` over stdio for the local helpers, and the hosted server at `https://api.browser-use.com/v3/mcp` for full agent runs.
