Description

DOMShell allows AI agents and humans to browse and interact with web pages using familiar Linux commands like ls, cd, cat, and click through a terminal in the Chrome Side Panel. It maps browser windows, tabs, and DOM elements into a hierarchical filesystem structure, enabling deterministic and semantic navigation and interaction without relying on brittle selectors or screenshots. This abstraction facilitates robust automation, content extraction, and navigation on any website without site-specific adapters.
