bb-browser

The bb-browser skill is a powerful web browsing and automation tool designed to enable both public and private information retrieval seamlessly. By leveraging the user's browser and active login sessions, it can access a wide range of web resources, including public websites, internal systems, and authenticated pages. This eliminates the common barriers of authentication, manual navigation, and repetitive tasks, providing an automated way to gather data, perform actions, and interact with web applications without triggering anti-bot mechanisms.

bb-browser offers a variety of core features. Its 'site' system transforms websites into command-line APIs, allowing users to access over 36 platforms with prebuilt adapters for search, data retrieval, and interactions. The fetch functionality enables HTTP requests with preserved login states and custom headers directly within the browser context. Users can perform detailed tab management, including opening, closing, and operating within specific tabs, as well as capturing snapshots of web page structures for element interaction. Advanced automation includes form filling, clicking, scrolling, selecting options, and executing keyboard actions, all using reference identifiers for precise control. Additionally, bb-browser supports network request interception, mock responses, and operation recording, providing a robust framework for complex web automation.

Typical use cases include automated data extraction from news sites, social media platforms, enterprise applications, and research repositories. It is suitable for users such as data analysts, web automation engineers, researchers, and IT administrators who require programmatic interaction with web content while maintaining user authentication. Its capabilities make repetitive tasks like content monitoring, report generation, and bulk operations more efficient, reducing manual effort and improving accuracy.
