Browser Use Cases (Recipes)

How to use this section

Treat each recipe as a standalone entry point. If browser setup is not ready yet, go back to Browser Automation first.

This section is intentionally copy-paste friendly: each recipe is a standalone page so you can open it quickly and run it.

See also: Browser Automation (CDP).

Prerequisites (default: CDP)

• Install a Chromium-based browser (Chrome/Chromium/Edge).
• If LoopForge can’t find it, set LOOPFORGE_BROWSER_CHROME_PATH.

Optional: use the Playwright backend (legacy) by setting LOOPFORGE_BROWSER_BACKEND=playwright and following the install steps in Browser Automation.

Recipes

• Real-world flow: Baidu “today’s weather” (Browser + Ollama)
• Wikipedia: open → summarize → screenshot

Tips

• For search engines, consider opening a results URL directly (more reliable than typing into the homepage search box).
• Always browser_close at the end (even on errors).
• Do not enter credentials or complete purchases without explicit user confirmation.
