Domain knowledge for Remote Browser — workflow patterns, data models, and gotchas for your AI agent.

Remote Browser (Steel)

Drive a hosted Chromium instance: multi-tab navigation, pointer and keyboard automation, form completion, uploads, and iframe-aware actions. Capture accessibility snapshots or raster screenshots for grounding, stream console logs and network activity, and run arbitrary page scripts when needed.

Data Model

  • Navigation — URLs, history, and tab lifecycle.
  • Input — clicks, drags, typing, key chords, selects, and multi-field forms.
  • Observability — DOM/accessibility trees, PNG captures, HAR-style network summaries, console streams.
  • Automation hooks — scripted evaluation, waits, viewport tweaks, dialog handling.

Gotchas

  • Local services: Reach developer machines through the desktop proxy tunnel (mcpbundles proxy expose <port>).
  • Ephemeral VMs: Sessions expire—re-open pages after long idle gaps.
