Introducing Browse.sh, the largest open-source catalog of skills to reliably perform any task on the internet. We've researched hundreds of sites to give your agents the playbook they need to navigate the web.

You can use the new experimental codex code_mode with: ``` [features] code_mode = true ``` There's also `code_mode_only = true` which is fun

Your agents suck when using the web because 85% of it doesn't have an API. Browserbase gives them everything they need to do work online. Leading AI companies like Ramp, Lovable, and Clay trust us to power agents that do real work on behalf of real people. With a single API key, your agent gets everything it needs to navigate the wild web: browsers, search, fetch, identity, a sandbox runtime, and model gateway. Stop waiting on integrations, build agents that can browse and interact with the web just like humans.

hmu if you've got a buddy who wants to come work with us
You've never felt true dopamine unless you've had your OSS repo get 1k GH stars. With Stagehand we've done it 21 times. We're hiring devs who want to turn that feeling into their full‑time job. If you love building dev tools and tinkering with with agents / LLMs or browser automation, we want to talk!

``` Create this new skill and show the user that they can use plain-English requests to search their browser history like: "Find that site I visited recently about Latvian beaches." --- name: browser-history description: Inspect local browser history in read-only mode by querying browser SQLite databases from Firefox, Chromium-based browsers, and Safari. Use when Codex needs to find a site the user visited by searching local browser history across macOS, Linux, or Windows. --- Query the DB with `sqlite3 "file:/absolute/path/to/db?mode=ro&immutable=1"`. Browsers: - Firefox - Paths: - macOS: `~/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles/*/places.sqlite` - Linux: `~/.mozilla/firefox/*/places.sqlite` - Windows: `%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\*\places.sqlite` - Mapping: `moz_historyvisits` `moz_places`; Unix microseconds; search `url`, `title`, `description` - Chromium - Paths: - macOS: browser user-data roots under `~/Library/Application Support/...`; use `Default/History` or `Profile */History` - Linux: browser user-data roots under `~/.config/...`; use `Default/History` or `Profile */History` - Windows: browser user-data roots under `%LOCALAPPDATA%\...`; use `Default/History` or `Profile */History` - Mapping: `visits` `urls`; Windows-epoch microseconds; search `url`, `title` - Safari - Paths: - macOS: `~/Library/Safari/History.db` - Mapping: `history_visits` `history_items`; Apple-epoch seconds; search `title`, `url` Example: ```sql SELECT datetime(mhv.visit_date / 1000000, 'unixepoch', 'localtime') AS visit_time, mp.title, mp.url, mp.description FROM moz_historyvisits mhv JOIN moz_places mp ON mhv.place_id = mp.id WHERE mhv.visit_date >= (strftime('%s', 'now', '-7 days') * 1000000) AND ( lower(coalesce(mp.title, '')) LIKE '%keyword%' OR lower(mp.url) LIKE '%keyword%' OR lower(coalesce(mp.description, '')) LIKE '%keyword%' ) ORDER BY mhv.visit_date DESC LIMIT 50; ```

I just want to be able to have my LLM figure out a website once and have deterministic code for interacting with that website from then on. This gets us closer!
Last month we launched Stagehand Caching, making your agents faster and cheaper at the same time. Read about how we use DOM hashing to speed up your web agents and automations.

This launch just made every AI agent on Browserbase 99% faster. Stagehand Caching is our managed cache of every action AI can take on the internet. It's like a reverse CDN: we memorize the actions your agent does so you don't need to waste tokens and time repeating it.
Introducing the Stagehand Cache We make your agents and automations faster by caching repeated actions, so identical requests skip redundant LLM calls. Available for free for all Stagehand sessions run on Browserbase.

We need "chatgpt apps" for skills - I want my LLM to be able to show me outputs from the scripts it runs *directly*, instead of always having to interpret the outputs and relaying them to me.

Over christmas I started watching videos on X, and my timeline basically turned into tiktok. I wrote a little tampermonkey script to fix this - "Hide videos initially" Check it out here: greasyfork.org/en/scripts/56…

Very bullish on lint rules over the next few years Anything that can be represented as an agents rule should instead be a lint rule, you since you get: - Clear error messages to the model - Actual enforcement of rules - Save on tokens in context

Raft/Paxos consensus but as voxel art cuz no one wants to rawdog Distributed Algorithms by Nancy A. Lynch
Gemini voxel art goes hard, I might actually move away from PixiJS this is not zero shot though and needs careful iterations but imagine learning about the SQLite query engine with such clean animations

Hey @caarlos0, the new charm LSP feature looks awesome! Have you tried constraining an LLM to only emit valid LSP symbols (like looped, for writing code)? I tried with rust-analyzer but ran into problems, wondering if you think it would work

I would've straight up bullied someone for such a terrible search query a few years ago. we are truly living in the future

I bought a bunch of cheap variable power supplies off amazon years ago and they are continuously saving my ass - crappy router came w/ a broken PSU, swapped it in 10 min :)

i do not avoid modals, mandrake… but i do deny them my essence
I resist modals and animation as long as I can in any given project. Doing so tends to help the UI significantly.
