webcli source                      # Get full visible text of the page
webcli links                       # List all links (text + href)

webcli title                       # Get the page title

webcli enabled <selector>          # Check if element is enabled
webcli checked <selector>          # Check if checkbox is checked

Accessibility Snapshot (Recommended for AI agents)

webcli snapshot                    # Get accessibility tree with refs (@e1, @e2...)
webcli snapshot --all              # Include non-interactive elements
webcli snapshot --max-depth 5      # Limit tree depth

The snapshot assigns deterministic refs to interactive elements. Use these refs in other commands:

webcli snapshot                    # Get tree: [button @e1] "Submit", [textbox @e2] "Email"
webcli fill @e2 "[email protected]" # Fill using ref
webcli click @e1                   # Click using ref
