Active·★ 386·MIT·Updated 2026-10-15
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.
open-codex-browser-use sits in the Browser Automation category, so it is usually better judged by workflow fit, deployment style, and team needs than by isolated features alone. Based on the available metadata, it leans most clearly toward Browser automation layer. A representative use case is Automate browser tasks via agent. The listed license is MIT. GitHub stars are currently 386. Relevant tags include ai-agent, ai-agents.
