## Description

Drive Chrome with OpenCLI to inspect pages, interact with logged-in sites, capture API evidence, and manage native tabs, groups and windows. For reusable adapters, see opencli-adapter-author.

# Browser tools for agents

Use the capability that fits the task. Discover commands with `opencli list <query>`;
read exact arguments with `opencli browser <command> --help -f json`.
Run `opencli doctor` when diagnosing a connection problem.

## Scope and results

Page commands require `--session <name>`. Reuse that name across a task; different
sessions isolate page work. `--profile <name>` selects a Chrome profile when needed.
Options can follow command arguments:

```sh
opencli browser open https://example.com --session research
opencli browser state --session research
opencli browser click --role button --name Search --session research
opencli browser close --session research
```

Default output is one JSON value: `{ "ok": true, "data": ... }`.
Failures return `{ "ok": false, "error": { "code": "...", "message": "...", "hint": "..." } }`
and a nonzero exit code. Diagnostic logs go to stderr. `network --follow` and
`console --follow` stream one envelope per line. Help, version and shell completion
are inspection/export surfaces; structured help uses `--help -f json`.

Read the returned data and error fields. When `error.outcome` is `unknown`, inspect
the affected state before retrying a write.
