Baidu Weather (Browser + Ollama)

Goal: open a Baidu results page, extract today’s weather info, and save evidence.

See also: Browser Automation (CDP).

Make sure Ollama has a strong instruction model (example):

1
ollama pull qwen3:4b

Then set it as default in ~/.loopforge/config.toml:

1
2
[providers.ollama]
default_model = "qwen3:4b"

Run (GUI mode)

1

3
export LOOPFORGE_BROWSER_HEADLESS=0

loopforge agent run --workspace . --prompt "Use browser tools to open https://www.baidu.com/s?wd=%E5%8C%97%E4%BA%AC%20%E4%BB%8A%E5%A4%A9%E5%A4%A9%E6%B0%94 . Wait for #content_left, then read the page. Extract today's weather info (conditions, temperature range, wind) from the page text. Write it to notes/weather.md. Save a screenshot to .loopforge/browser/baidu_weather.png. Close the browser. If you can't find the weather, say so, but still save the screenshot."

Some sites may show CAPTCHAs or block automation. If that happens, try a different query/site, or switch to web_search + web_fetch when the content is not JS-heavy.
