Can I target specific browsers like Chrome or Safari?

Yes, you can specify your preferred browser by adding the '--browser=safari' or '--browser=chrome' flag to your commands.

Can Tab Agent handle form filling and file exports?

Yes, it includes dedicated 'fill' commands for forms and a 'pdf' command to save the current webpage as a PDF file.

Why should I use snapshots instead of screenshots?

Snapshots provide a text-based representation of the page with element references, which is significantly faster and easier for AI models to parse than visual images.

Do element references (e.g., [e1]) stay the same?

No, references are reset after each snapshot to reflect the current state of the page. It is best practice to take a snapshot immediately before interacting with elements.

How do I start using Tab Agent with Claude?

Ensure the tab-agent server is running using 'npx tab-agent start' and activate the browser extension by clicking the icon on your target tab.

Browser Automation

Automates browser tab interactions through CLI commands for navigation, data extraction, and element manipulation.

Tab Agent (Codex) is a powerful browser automation bridge that allows Claude to interact directly with active browser tabs via the CLI. It provides a comprehensive suite of tools for navigating pages, interacting with DOM elements using a unique reference system, and extracting data such as text, attributes, and cookies. This skill is ideal for developers needing to perform end-to-end testing, visual debugging, or complex web scraping tasks without leaving their terminal environment, offering a faster and more integrated alternative to traditional headless automation tools.
