# Open Browser Use

A platform-neutral browser automation layer for AI agents that pairs a Chrome extension with a CLI, JavaScript, Python, and Go SDKs, and an MCP server for driving real Chrome sessions.

Open Browser Use gives AI agent runtimes real Chrome automation without locking them into one vendor. It pairs a Chrome extension with a CLI and SDKs in JavaScript, Python, and Go, so an agent can drive an actual browser session rather than a synthetic one.

It installs as a global CLI or Homebrew formula, sets up the native host for its Chrome extension, and can also be added as a skill or an MCP server; the MCP server exposes browser tools such as tab control over a standard MCP client connection.

The project positions itself as an open-source alternative to the browser automation capability built into Codex.app, usable independently of any single coding agent.
