What are the main requirements for using Browser?

You need Chrome or Edge installed and Node 18+ to run Browser. It's designed for integration with AI assistants via the Model Context Protocol (MCP), such as GitHub Copilot in VS Code.

How does Browser maintain login sessions across multiple requests?

It features domain-aware tab reuse, which means it automatically reuses the same browser tab for subsequent requests to the same domain. This preserves your authenticated session, eliminating the need to re-login repeatedly.

Does Browser support Single Sign-On (SSO) and complex authentication flows?

Yes, it automatically detects and handles various authentication redirects, including corporate SSO and OAuth processes. It waits for you to complete sign-in, then proceeds to fetch the target page.

How does Browser access authenticated or restricted web pages?

It leverages your existing authenticated Chrome or Edge browser session via the DevTools Protocol. This enables it to inherit your login cookies and session tokens, acting as you within your browser to securely fetch content.

Fetches login-protected web resources and bypasses access restrictions for AI assistants using a browser session.

This tool empowers GitHub Copilot and other AI assistants to access web pages protected by authentication, corporate SSO, or anti-crawler mechanisms. It leverages your existing Chrome or Edge browser session through the DevTools Protocol, inheriting your authenticated cookies to seamlessly fetch content from virtually any site, including internal corporate intranets. The system intelligently handles login redirects, waits for dynamic web pages to fully load, and reuses browser tabs to maintain session continuity, ensuring reliable content retrieval from complex web environments without manual intervention after initial setup.
