The browser connects to the user's running Chrome (not a headless instance). **These tools coexist with all other standard pi tools** — read, bash, edit, write, and any other built-in tools are still available. Use browser_* tools to interact with pages visually, and other tools alongside them. ### Browser-Specific Tools | Tool | Purpose | |------|---------| | browser_snapshot | Accessibility-tree snapshot. Assigns every interactive element a stable **ref** (\`[eN]\`) plus \`@(x,y)\`. Refs are the primary handle for interaction tools — they survive re-renders, coordinates don't. | | browser_screenshot | Capture a PNG or JPEG screenshot of the current page (rendered inline in the TUI; the LLM reads the image via the saved file path) | | browser_click | Click an element by **ref** (preferred — re-resolves position, survives re-renders) or viewport x/y. Appends a compact diff of page changes. | | browser_type | Type text into the focused element (real keystrokes; requires a focused field) | | browser_fill | Fill an input/textarea by **ref** (preferred) or selector — updates React/Vue controlled components, verifies the value, appends a page-changes diff | | browser_select_option | Select an option in a native by ref → browser_click({ ref: "e12" }) // e.g. Save — re-resolves position even if the form reflowed // each mutating call appends a compact "Page changes" diff — read it to confirm // the change landed (e.g. a save closed the form, a new field appeared as *[eN]). \`\`\` **Why ref over selector/coordinates:** refs are keyed to the element's identity, so they survive the re-renders that React/Vue forms trigger on every edit and save — coordinates go stale and selectors you guess often don't match. If a call returns "ref is stale", the page changed: re-run browser_snapshot for fresh refs. Prefer browser_fill for text inputs/textareas — it fires input/change so controlled components update, and returns the field's value for verification. Use browser_click + browser_type only for keystroke-sensitive widgets (autocomplete, masked inputs); browser_type requires an already-focused field and errors if none is focused. **Data extraction:** \`\`\` browser_execute_js("document.querySelector('.price').innerText") // or for APIs: browser_http_get("https://api.example.com/data") \`\`\` **Scrolling:** \`\`\` browser_screenshot() → browser_scroll({ deltaY: 500 }) → browser_screenshot() \`\`\` Note: deltaY follows W3C wheel-event convention: positive=down, negative=up. Default deltaY=300 scrolls down. **Research Workflow (search + browser):** \`\`\` browser_navigate("https://google.com/search?q=...") → search engine in a tab browser_open_urls(urls: ["url1", "url2", ...]) → open result pages in parallel tabs browser_list_tabs() → see all open tabs with targetIds browser_switch_tab(targetId: "...") → switch to a tab browser_screenshot() → visually inspect the page browser_execute_js("document.querySelector('.main').innerText") → extract content \`\`\` **Temporary Scripts (extending the harness):** \`\`\` write("/tmp/extract.js", "...script with daemon access...") → browser_run_script("/tmp/extract.js") \`\`\` ### Additional Tools | Tool | Purpose | |------|---------| | browser_upload_file | Upload a file to a file input by **ref** (preferred) or selector (bypasses file picker) | | browser_dispatch_key | Dispatch a DOM KeyboardEvent on an element by **ref** (preferred) or selector (for React/Vue inputs); returns details.matched | | browser_download | Configure download directory and disable save-as prompts | | browser_viewport_resize | Resize the viewport for responsive testing | | browser_drag_and_drop | Perform drag-and-drop from one coordinate to another | | browser_print_to_pdf | Print the current page to a PDF file | | browser_get_network_log | Get buffered network request/response events | `; }
