Use Browser Tools
Give your agent a real browser — navigate pages, extract content, fill forms via agent-browser.

When to use browser vs. search
| Use case | Tool |
|---|---|
| Find information across the web | Search |
| Read a specific page you know the URL of | Browser |
| Interact with a web app (login, fill forms) | Browser |
| Extract structured data from a page | Browser |
| Quick factual lookup | Search |
Search is faster for general queries. Browser is for when you need to interact with a specific page or extract content that search engines don't index.
