Ghost Browser

Automated Chrome browser for AI agent web tasks. Powered by nodriver for reliable browser control. Every command is designed to minimize token usage and maximize accuracy. Use for: web automation, screenshots, page reading, form filling, scraping, cookie/session management, and persistent browser profiles.

How to Browse — Follow This Workflow

ALWAYS use this workflow. Never use raw content (HTML) or CSS-selector click/type as your first choice.

Step 1: Navigate and understand the page

ghost-browser navigate https://example.com ghost-browser wait-ready ghost-browser page-summary page-summary returns: page title, URL, element counts (links/buttons/inputs/forms), whether there's a login form, and a short text preview. Costs ~10 tokens.

Step 2: See what you can interact with

ghost-browser elements # Numbered list of ALL interactive elements ghost-browser elements --form-only # Just form inputs (for login/signup/search) Output: [0] link "Home" → / [1] link "Products" → /products [2] button "Sign In" [3] input[email] "Email address" [4] input[password] "Password" [5] submit "Log In"

Step 3: Interact by visible text (NOT CSS selectors)

ghost-browser interact click "Sign In" ghost-browser interact type "Email" --type-text "user@example.com" ghost-browser interact type "Password" --type-text "secret123" # Or fill entire forms at once ghost-browser fill-form '{"email":"user@example.com","password":"secret123"}' --submit

Step 4: Read page content as markdown

ghost-browser readable # Full page as clean markdown ghost-browser readable --max-length 5000 # Limit length to save tokens Never use content — it returns raw HTML which wastes thousands of tokens. Use readable instead.

Step 5: Wait for dynamic pages

ghost-browser wait-ready # Wait for network idle + DOM stable ghost-browser wait-ready --timeout 10

Complete Login Example

ghost-browser start ghost-browser navigate https://mysite.com/login ghost-browser wait-ready ghost-browser elements --form-only ghost-browser fill-form '{"email":"me@example.com","password":"mypass"}' --submit ghost-browser wait-ready ghost-browser page-summary # Verify login succeeded ghost-browser session save mysite # Save auth state for later

Restore a Previous Session

ghost-browser start --profile mysite ghost-browser session load mysite ghost-browser navigate https://mysite.com/dashboard ghost-browser page-summary

Lifecycle

ghost-browser start # Start browser daemon ghost-browser start --headless # Run without visible window ghost-browser start --profile work # Use named profile (persistent data) ghost-browser start --extension /path/ext # Load unpacked Chrome extension ghost-browser start --proxy socks5://host:port # Use proxy ghost-browser stop # Graceful shutdown ghost-browser status # Check if running ghost-browser status --json # Machine-readable status ghost-browser health # Quick health check

Navigation & Tabs

ghost-browser navigate <url> # Navigate current tab (or reuse matching tab) ghost-browser navigate <url> --force-new # Always open new tab ghost-browser tabs # List open tabs with IDs ghost-browser tabs --json # Machine-readable tab list ghost-browser activate-tab <ID> # Switch to a tab by ID ghost-browser close-tab <ID> # Close a tab by ID ghost-browser wait-ready # Wait for page to fully load ghost-browser wait-ready --timeout 10 # Custom timeout in seconds After navigate, all commands automatically target the navigated tab.

Page Understanding

ghost-browser page-summary # Quick overview (~10 tokens) ghost-browser elements # All interactive elements (numbered) ghost-browser elements --form-only # Form inputs only ghost-browser elements --limit 50 # Cap at 50 elements ghost-browser readable # Full page as markdown ghost-browser readable --max-length 5000 # Limit output length ghost-browser content # Raw HTML (avoid — use readable instead)

Text-Based Interaction (preferred)

ghost-browser interact click "Sign In" # Click by button/link text ghost-browser interact type "Email" --type-text "user@example.com" # Type by label ghost-browser interact click "Products" --index 1 # Click 2nd match if multiple ghost-browser fill-form '{"email":"a@b.com","password":"x"}' --submit ghost-browser hover "Menu" --by-text # Hover by visible text

CSS Selector Interaction (fallback)

Use these only when text-based interaction fails. ghost-browser click "button.submit" # Click by CSS selector ghost-browser type "input#email" "a@b.com" # Type by CSS selector ghost-browser find "h1" # Find elements by selector ghost-browser hover ".dropdown" # Hover by CSS selector ghost-browser wait ".loaded" --timeout 10 # Wait for element to appear ghost-browser scroll --down # Scroll down ghost-browser scroll --up # Scroll up ghost-browser scroll --to 500 # Scroll to Y position ghost-browser eval "document.title" # Execute arbitrary JavaScript

Cookies & Storage

ghost-browser cookies # List all cookies ghost-browser cookies --domain example.com # Filter by domain ghost-browser set-cookie name value # Set a cookie ghost-browser set-cookie name value --domain .example.com # Set with domain ghost-browser clear-cookies # Clear all cookies ghost-browser clear-cookies --domain example.com # Clear for domain ghost-browser save-cookies --file cookies.json # Export cookies to JSON ghost-browser load-cookies cookies.json # Import cookies from JSON ghost-browser storage list # List localStorage entries ghost-browser storage list --session # List sessionStorage entries ghost-browser storage get <key> # Get a value ghost-browser storage set <key> <value> # Set a value ghost-browser storage delete <key> # Delete a key ghost-browser storage clear # Clear all localStorage

Session Management

ghost-browser session save <name> # Save cookies + localStorage + sessionStorage ghost-browser session load <name> # Restore full auth state Sessions are saved locally under state/sessions/<name>.json. They contain cookies and storage data needed to restore an authenticated state. Delete session files when no longer needed.

Files & Media

ghost-browser screenshot # Screenshot to auto-named file ghost-browser screenshot --output ./page.png # Screenshot to specific file ghost-browser pdf --output page.pdf # Save page as PDF ghost-browser pdf --output page.pdf --landscape # Landscape PDF ghost-browser upload photo.jpg # Upload file (auto-detect file input) ghost-browser upload doc.pdf --selector "#file" # Upload to specific file input ghost-browser download <url> --output file.pdf # Download a file

Debugging

ghost-browser network-log # View recent network requests ghost-browser network-log --limit 20 # Limit entries ghost-browser network-log --filter api # Filter by URL substring ghost-browser network-log --clear # Clear the log ghost-browser console-log # View JS console output ghost-browser console-log --level error # Show only errors ghost-browser console-log --clear # Clear the log ghost-browser eval "document.title" # Execute JavaScript and return result Network and console logging run automatically in the background.

Window

ghost-browser window --size 1920x1080 # Resize window ghost-browser window --position 0x0 # Reposition window

Profile Management

Profiles persist browser data (history, cookies, extensions) across sessions. ghost-browser profile list # List profiles with sizes ghost-browser profile create <name> # Create new profile ghost-browser profile delete <name> # Delete a profile and its data ghost-browser profile default # Show default profile ghost-browser profile default <name> # Set default profile ghost-browser profile clone <src> <dst> # Clone a profile

Extension Management

ghost-browser install-extension <source> # Install from Web Store URL/ID or .crx file ghost-browser install-extension <source> --name custom-name # Install with custom folder name ghost-browser list-extensions # List all installed extensions ghost-browser remove-extension <name> # Remove an installed extension ghost-browser load-extension <name> # Load extension into running browser ghost-browser load-extension # Load all extensions ghost-browser unload-extension <name> # Unload extension from running browser

Challenge Handling

ghost-browser cf-solve # Handle Cloudflare challenges (all tabs) ghost-browser cf-solve --tab <ID> # Handle on specific tab Challenges are also detected and handled automatically in the background.
