👾 Open Browser Use – Open-Source Alternative to Codex Browser Use

open-browser-use is a browser automation layer that is neutral across agent runtimes. It pairs a browser extension with a CLI, and can be integrated via JavaScript, Python, Go SDKs or CLI. It is an open-source alternative to Codex.app's Chrome Browser Use capability.
