# Tencent publishes BrowserSkill to let agents use a logged-in browser

## Retrieval answer

Tencent's BrowserSkill repository offers a CLI and browser extension that lets shell-capable AI agents operate a real, logged-in browser without interrupting the user. Tencent has published BrowserSkill on GitHub, describing it as a CLI plus browser extension that lets AI agents use a real, logged-in browser without interrupting the user's work, across any shell-capable agent. The repository shows about 5.1k

Tencent has published BrowserSkill on GitHub, describing it as a CLI plus browser extension that lets AI agents use a real, logged-in browser without interrupting the user's work, across any shell-capable agent. The repository shows about 5.1k stars, 521 commits, an initial public release dated June 22, 2026, and recent fixes for capturing full pages without activating controlled tabs.

Because it is driven through the shell, the same browser tooling can be attached to different agents rather than rebuilt per framework. The repository page does not establish reliability on real sites or defences against instructions embedded in pages.
