Browse.sh
Browse.sh is a browser CLI built for AI agents that need to interact with real websites. It combines an open catalog of website-specific automation skills with low-level browser commands, live debugging, and optional cloud browser sessions through Browserbase. Install it globally with npm and wire it into agent workflows that need to search listings, fill forms, or pull structured data from the live web.
The headline feature is the open web catalog: hundreds of community skills for domains like SAM.gov, Ticketmaster, Airbnb, Glassdoor, and Craigslist. Each skill documents selectors, API paths, and site-specific gotchas so agents spend fewer tokens guessing how a page works. Browse.sh claims suggested DOM selectors and XHR hints can cut token costs by roughly 50x compared with raw page dumps.
Beyond packaged skills, the CLI exposes browser primitives your agent can call directly: click, type, scroll, hover, press keys, take screenshots, and address elements by CSS selector or accessibility refs. Network and console output can be tailed in real time so you see exactly what the page fetched or logged during a session.
Everything runs against local Chromium by default. Prefix any command with cloud to spin up remote sessions on Browserbase, including Search and Fetch APIs for pages that are easier to reach from their infrastructure. The project is built by Browserbase and surfaced on Product Hunt as a catalog for giving agents muscle memory on the web.
400+ open web skills for sites like SAM.gov, Airbnb, and Ticketmaster
Suggested selectors and XHR paths aimed at cutting agent token use ~50x
Primitive commands for click, type, scroll, hover, press, and screenshots
Live network and console tails so agents see requests and JS errors

Large open catalog of ready-made website skills saves agents from reverse-engineering every domain.
Combines high-level skills and low-level browser primitives in one CLI.
Local Chromium works out of the box; cloud sessions are optional via Browserbase.
Live network and console tails make debugging agent browser runs much easier.
No pricing or docs pages on browse.sh itself; cloud usage depends on separate Browserbase billing.
Skill quality and maintenance vary because the catalog is community-contributed across many sites.
Some skills require Browserbase verified browsers or proxies for anti-bot protected sites.
Is Browse.sh free to use?
Yes. Browse.sh is distributed as a free CLI you install with `npm i -g browse`, and the open web catalog on browse.sh is free to browse. Optional remote browser sessions run on Browserbase, which has its own paid plans separate from the Browse.sh catalog.
How do I install Browse.sh?
Browse.sh installs as the `browse` npm package. Run `npm i -g browse` on your machine, then use commands like `browse skills add sam.gov` or `browse click` from your terminal or agent harness.
What is the Browse.sh open web catalog?
The open web catalog on browse.sh lists website-specific automation skills contributed for real domains. Each entry documents what the skill does, its method (API, browser, fetch, or hybrid), and installation via `browse skills add`. Examples include federal contract search on SAM.gov, Ticketmaster event lookup, and Glassdoor company reviews.
Can Browse.sh run without Browserbase cloud?
Yes. Browse.sh CLI commands work natively with local Chromium. You only need Browserbase when you prefix a command with `cloud`, such as `browse cloud sessions create` for remote sessions or Browserbase Search and Fetch APIs.
What browser debugging does Browse.sh support?
Browse.sh can tail network traffic and console output from any active browse session using `browse network --tail` and `browse console --tail`. That lets agents (and developers) see HTTP requests, responses, warnings, and JavaScript errors as the page runs.
Who built Browse.sh?
Browse.sh is built by Browserbase, the hosted browser infrastructure company. The browse.sh homepage links to Browserbase for cloud sessions and verified browser profiles used by some skills.
