agent-browser wait <selector>         # Wait for element
agent-browser wait <ms>               # Wait for time
agent-browser wait --text "Welcome"   # Wait for text (substring match)

Tabs & frames

agent-browser tab                     # List tabs
agent-browser tab new [url]           # New tab
agent-browser tab <n>                 # Switch to tab
agent-browser tab close [n]           # Close tab
agent-browser window new              # Open new browser window
agent-browser frame <sel>             # Switch to iframe by CSS selector
agent-browser frame @e3               # Switch to iframe by element ref
agent-browser frame main              # Back to main frame

Iframe support

Iframes are detected automatically during snapshots. Iframe nodes are resolved and their content is inlined beneath the iframe element in the snapshot output. Refs assigned to elements inside iframes carry frame context, so click, fill, and other interactions work without manually switching frames.

agent-browser snapshot -i
# @e3 [Iframe] "payment-frame"
#   @e4 [input] "Card number"
#   @e5 [button] "Pay"

# Interact directly using refs — no frame switch needed
agent-browser fill @e4 "4111111111111111"
agent-browser click @e5

# Or switch frame context for scoped snapshots
agent-browser frame @e3
agent-browser snapshot -i             # Only elements inside that iframe
agent-browser frame main              # Return to main frame

The frame command accepts element refs (@e3), CSS selectors ("#my-iframe"), or frame name/URL.

Dialogs

agent-browser dialog accept [text]    # Accept dialog (with optional prompt text)
agent-browser dialog dismiss          # Dismiss dialog

Debug

agent-browser trace start [path]      # Start trace
agent-browser trace stop [path]       # Stop and save trace
agent-browser profiler start          # Start Chrome DevTools profiling
agent-browser profiler stop [path]    # Stop and save profile (.json)
agent-browser record start <path>     # Start video recording (WebM)
agent-browser record stop             # Stop and save video
agent-browser record restart <path>   # Stop current and start new recording
agent-browser console                 # View console messages
agent-browser console --clear         # Clear console log
agent-browser errors                  # View page errors
agent-browser errors --clear          # Clear error log
agent-browser highlight <sel>         # Highlight element
agent-browser inspect                 # Open Chrome DevTools for the active page

Auth vault

agent-browser auth save <name> [opts]    # Save auth profile
agent-browser auth login <name>          # Login using saved credentials
agent-browser auth list                  # List saved profiles (names and URLs only)
agent-browser auth show <name>           # Show profile metadata (no passwords)
agent-browser auth delete <name>         # Delete a saved profile

Save options:

--url <url> -- login page URL (required)
--username <user> -- username (required)
--password <pass> -- password (required unless --password-stdin)
--password-stdin -- read password from stdin (recommended to avoid shell history exposure)
--username-selector <sel> -- custom CSS selector for username field
--password-selector <sel> -- custom CSS selector for password field
--submit-selector <sel> -- custom CSS selector for submit button

auth login navigates with load and then waits for the username/password/submit selectors to appear before interacting. This improves reliability on SPA login pages where fields render after initial page load.

echo "pass" | agent-browser auth save github --url https://github.com/login --username user --password-stdin
agent-browser auth login github
agent-browser auth list

Confirmation

When --confirm-actions is set, certain action categories return a confirmation_required response instead of executing immediately. Use confirm or deny to approve or reject the action.

agent-browser confirm <confirmation-id>  # Approve a pending action
agent-browser deny <confirmation-id>     # Deny a pending action

Pending confirmations auto-deny after 60 seconds.

agent-browser --confirm-actions eval,download eval "document.title"
# Returns confirmation_required with ID
agent-browser confirm c_8f3a1234

State management

agent-browser state save <path>       # Save auth state to file
agent-browser state load <path>       # Load auth state from file
agent-browser state list              # List saved state files
agent-browser state show <file>       # Show state summary
agent-browser state rename <old> <new> # Rename state file

Batch execution

Execute multiple commands in a single invocation by piping a JSON array of string arrays to batch:

echo '[
  ["open", "https://example.com"],
  ["snapshot", "-i"],
  ["click", "@e1"],
  ["screenshot", "result.png"]
]' | agent-browser batch --json

# Stop on first error
agent-browser batch --bail < commands.json

Option	Description
`--bail`	Stop on first error (default: continue all commands)
`--json`	Output results as a JSON array

Command chaining

Chain commands with && in a single shell invocation. The browser persists via a background daemon, so chaining works naturally and is more efficient than separate calls:

agent-browser open example.com && agent-browser wait --load networkidle && agent-browser snapshot -i
agent-browser fill @e1 "user@example.com" && agent-browser fill @e2 "pass" && agent-browser click @e3
agent-browser open example.com && agent-browser wait --load networkidle && agent-browser screenshot page.png

Use && when you don't need to read intermediate output. Run commands separately when you need to parse output first (e.g., snapshot to discover refs, then interact with those refs).

Local files

Open local files (PDFs, HTML) using file:// URLs:

agent-browser --allow-file-access open file:///path/to/document.pdf
agent-browser --allow-file-access open file:///path/to/page.html
agent-browser screenshot output.png

The --allow-file-access flag enables JavaScript to access other local files. Chromium only.
