|
|
Eigent can launch or connect to Chrome DevTools Protocol browsers for research and browser automation. Browser agents can navigate pages, interact with controls, capture screenshots, and maintain session state.
|
|
|
|
## Open Browser settings
|
|
|
|
1. Open the Eigent dashboard.
|
|
2. Select **Browser**.
|
|
3. Choose **Connections**, **Plugins**, or **Cookies**.
|
|
|
|
> **Screenshot placeholder:** Add a screenshot of the Browser settings page with the three navigation items and an active browser pool.
|
|
|
|
## Browser Connections
|
|
|
|
Connections manage browsers available to agents. You can:
|
|
|
|
- Open a new managed browser
|
|
- Connect an existing CDP-enabled browser
|
|
- Review browser names and ports
|
|
- Remove a browser from the pool
|
|
|
|
See [Browser connections](/browser/connections).
|
|
|
|
## Browser Cookies
|
|
|
|
Cookies let agents use authenticated sessions. Open a dedicated login browser, sign in to required services, then let Eigent import the resulting cookie domains.
|
|
|
|
See [Browser cookies](/browser/cookies).
|
|
|
|
## Browser Plugins
|
|
|
|
Browser Plugins are currently marked **Coming soon**.
|
|
|
|
<Note>
|
|
Do not present browser extension or plugin features as available until the product page includes active installation controls.
|
|

## Use a browser in a Session
|
|
|
|
When a Browser agent starts work, its workspace appears in the Project Session.
|
|
|
|
The agent can:
|
|
|
|
- Search and navigate
|
|
- Click and type
|
|
- Read page content
|
|
- Capture visual state
|
|
- Use available authenticated cookies
|
|
|
|
When manual interaction is required, use **Take Control**, complete the action, and return control to the agent.
|
|
|
|
## Security
|
|
|
|
- Use a dedicated browser profile.
|
|
- Avoid storing unnecessary privileged sessions.
|
|
- Delete cookies when a task no longer needs them.
|
|
- Review actions before giving an agent access to sensitive services.
|
|
- Do not connect a remote-debugging port to an untrusted network.
|
|
|
|
> **Video placeholder:** Add a 60-second MP4 showing a browser connection, a Browser-agent task, Take Control, and return of control. Include captions.
