Webcmd

Self-learning browser infra for AI agents.

WebCMD learns the navigational context of websites as agents use them, then compiles that knowledge into deterministic commands for faster, cheaper, more reliable browser automation. The goal is simple: stop making agents rediscover the same sites on every run and cut browser-agent token spend by up to 90%.

On top of live browser control, WebCMD adds 3 layers of learnings. Each layer collapses cost and variance for the layer above it.

Layer	Scenario	What Webcmd Helps With
1. Live browser control	The site is unfamiliar.	Use webcmd browser to inspect, click, type, extract, capture network calls, and complete the task in a real browser.
2. Sitemap memory	The site is familiar, but the action space is not fully known.	Capture an agent-facing sitemap of observed pages, states, actions, workflows, APIs, pitfalls, and fallback paths.
3. CLI authoring	The action space is known, but the path is still too variable for one fixed sequence.	Explicitly author a reusable webcmd <site> adapter with structured output, so future agents spend tokens on the task instead of navigation.
4. Extend existing CLIs	The workflow is deterministic enough to stop browsing.	Extend the webcmd <site> adapter with a tailored command so the workflow runs instantly with the least amount of tokens.

Quick Start

Webcmd requires Node.js 20+.

npm install -g @agentrhq/webcmd
webcmd skills add

When prompted, choose a supported harness such as Codex or Claude, or enter a custom skills path.

In your agent harness, load or tag webcmd-usage, then describe the outcome you want.

Use webcmd to research the latest discussions about browser automation across Hacker News and Reddit, then return a concise comparison with source links.

What You Can Ask

• “Use webcmd to research agentic browser automation on PubMed and return the title, authors, publication date, abstract, and URL for each result.”
• “Use webcmd to find active AI infrastructure companies in the YC company directory and return the company, batch, description, location, profile URL, and source links. Keep it read-only.”
• “Use webcmd to look up parts on Grainger by part number and return price, stock, minimum order quantity, lead time, and product URL.”
• “Use webcmd with my logged-in work profile to summarize unread LinkedIn messages from the last seven days and return the sender, subject or opening text, received time, and conversation URL.”
• “Repair webcmd reddit popular --limit 10 and keep returning the title, subreddit, score, comment count, and URL.”
• “Use webcmd to check Grainger part prices and SAP Ariba purchase-order status, then return a combined summary.”

See It in Action: X → CLI

Use webcmd with my logged-in `social` profile to collect my recent X bookmarks and return the author, text, and URL.

The agent explores the X workflow once using the logged-in profile. It creates a stable command that returns the requested bookmark fields. Later agents reuse that command instead of repeating browser exploration; learn the pattern in X → CLI.

Where Webcmd Works

Beyond website adapters, Webcmd can work through authenticated browser sessions, APIs, desktop apps, and local tools.

Group	Supported surfaces	Representative outcomes
research and communities	Hacker News, Reddit, PubMed	Compare current discussions, find primary research, and return concise summaries with source links.
social and professional	X/Twitter, LinkedIn, TikTok	Collect bookmarks, monitor public posts, or research people and creators with a named profile when needed.
AI tools	ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, NotebookLM	Retrieve conversations, research outputs, notebooks, and generated materials from the tools you already use.
shopping and bookings	Amazon, Blinkit, Zepto, BigBasket, District, Practo	Compare products, availability, prices, appointments, events, and delivery options.

This list is illustrative; ask your agent to use webcmd to discover what is currently available.
