Gbrow — The Browser Your AI Agent Actually Needs
A full-featured headless browser powered by Playwright and Bun. Uses the accessibility tree for page reading — not expensive vision models.
Why Gbrow?
| Traditional (screenshots + vision) | Gbrow (accessibility tree) |
|---|---|
| Screenshot → upload to GPT-4o → wait → read | ariaSnapshot() → instant structured text |
| ~$0.01 per page read | Free |
| 3-10 seconds per page | < 100ms |
| Fails on API key issues | Always works |
| Click by fragile CSS selector | Click by @ref (@e1, @e2, etc.) |
Quick Setup
# Clone and install
git clone https://github.com/ashish797/Gbrow.git ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/Gbrow
cd ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/Gbrow
bash setup.sh
Or one-liner:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ashish797/Gbrow/main/setup.sh | bash
How It Works
1. Start the server
cd ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/Gbrow
bun run src/server.ts
2. Read the page (accessibility tree)
The snapshot gives you a structured view with clickable refs:
@e1 [heading] "Welcome" [level=1]
@e2 [link] "Get Started"
@e3 [button] "Sign in"
@e4 [textbox] "Search"
3. Click by ref
click @e2 → clicks "Get Started"
fill @e4 "query" → types into search box
