Point it at a page and your assistant can click buttons, type into forms, pick from dropdowns, take a picture of the whole page or one element on it, and read what the browser reports behind the scenes. Installation writes the settings for Claude Desktop or Cursor for you, and the browser it drives downloads once. There is nothing to pay for. Do check it still runs, since the code has had no updates since June 2025 and the project points nowhere else.

Which apps does it work in?
Claude Desktop and Cursor are both documented, and the installer writes the settings file for you.

You run one install command and paste a short block into your app's settings, plus a one-time browser download.
