# BrowseAgent

> Drives a real browser: navigate, click, screenshot. For what only appears after JavaScript, or behind a login.

Drives a real browser: navigate, click, screenshot. For what only appears after JavaScript, or behind a login.

## Connecting

In the dashboard, open **Connectors**, find BrowseAgent and press **Connect**. The key you enter is checked against BrowseAgent before anything is saved, so a key that is refused never becomes a connection that fails later.

### Getting the credential

1. Install Chrome Extension: Install the [BrowseAgent Chrome Extension](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/browseagent) from the Chrome Web Store.
2. Connect & Use
   * **Open the extension popup** and click "Connect" and copy the BrowseAgent mcp server extension bridge url and use for the extension bridge endpoint.
   * **Start automating** - try saying: *"Take a screenshot of google.com"*
3. That's it! 🎉

## Notes

* This one drives a browser through the BoostGPT extension rather than calling an API, so the extension has
  to be installed and the tab open. Nothing happens server-side.
