    Hi HN, My team and I are building Tabstack to handle the "web layer" for AI agents. Launch Post: https://tabstack.ai/blog/intro-browsing-infrastructure-ai-ag... Maintaining a complex infrastructure stack for web browsing is one of the biggest bottlenecks in building reliable agents. You start with a simple fetch, but quickly end up managing a complex stack of proxies, handling client-side hydration, and debugging brittle selectors. and writing custom parsing logic for every site. Tabstack is an API that abstracts that infrastructure. You send a URL and an intent; we…

    I've been building computer-use tools for a while, and I quietly launched this about a month ago (122 Stars on GH). I figured it was worth sharing here. Over the last few months, a lot of computer-use agents have come out: Codex, Claude Code, CUA, and others. Most of them seem to work roughly like this: 1. Take a screenshot 2. Have the model predict pixel coordinates 3. Click x,y 4. Take another screenshot 5. Repeat That works, but it's slow, expensive in tokens, and fragile. If the UI shifts a few pixels, things break. And the model still doesn't know what any element actually is. But the…

    Hey HN, I'm excited to share BrowserBee, a privacy-first AI assistant in your browser that allows you to run and automate tasks using your LLM of choice (currently supports Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, and Ollama). Short demo here: https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/209c7042-6d54-4fc... Inspired by projects like Browser Use and Playwright MCP, its main advantage is the browser extension form factor which makes it more convenient for day to day use, especially for less technical users. Its also a bit less cumbersome to use on websites that require you to be…

    I wanted to query Google's AI Mode programmatically, and there's no official API. So I built a browser extension that gives you a private API endpoint tied to your browser. Install the extension → it connects to a relay server → you get a unique, private endpoint. Send POST requests from your scripts/terminal. Your browser receives the query, the extension fires up AI Mode, executes the query, returns JSON with the answer, follow-ups, and sources. The endpoint is private (only you can query it). Extension only touches the AI Mode page, nothing else in your browser. Demo video:…

    Hello HN, My friend and I have spent the last month building an AI-powered browser tab manager. It's a Chrome extension that automatically categorizes all tabs into topics. It also supports some basic organization features like custom groups and locked groups (groups that AI doesn't touch). We would like to experiment with a few other things like nested folders, sync with browser tab grouping, user controlled prompt & categories soon! At the moment we just started looking for early adopters to help us test it + provide suggestions and feedback! Please consider giving it a try if this sounds…
