dsh-browser-use

Browser Use bridge for DeepSeek Harness: let your dsh agent run real web tasks — open pages, click, type, fill forms, extract data — through the Browser Use Cloud API.

English | 中文

What it is

A thin, honest bridge. It registers one model-facing tool, browser_use_run, forwards the task to Browser Use's cloud endpoint, and returns the raw run result. It does not reimplement Browser Use and does not claim to be a full integration.

Install

dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-browser-use

Then set your Browser Use API key (config apiKey, or the BROWSER_USE_API_KEY env var).

Two modes: cloud vs. local

Mode	Needs	Tools you get
Cloud (this plugin)	Browser Use API key	browser_use_run
Local (free, no key)	Python + browser-use installed	mcp__browser_use__browser_exec, mcp__browser_use__browser_screenshot

Local mode (no Browser Use API key)

Browser Use also runs locally as an MCP stdio server — no cloud subscription. DeepSeek Harness already ships @deepseek-ai/dsh-mcp-client, so you do not need this plugin for the local path. Install Browser Use once (pip install 'browser-use[cli]'), then add this to your profile's cordis.yml:

- insert:
    - id: browser-use-local
      name: '@deepseek-ai/dsh-mcp-client'
      config:
        serverName: browser_use
        transport: stdio
        command: browser-use
        args: ['--cli-mcp']
        cwd: !!js process.cwd()

That registers mcp__browser_use__browser_exec and mcp__browser_use__browser_screenshot. A ready-to-copy file is in examples/local-mcp.cordis.yml.

Tool

Parameter	Type	Description
task	string	The task, e.g. "Find the stars of the browser-use repo".
model	string	Optional provider-prefixed model id, e.g. openai/gpt-5.5.

Returns { result } — the raw Browser Use run result.

Config

Key	Type	Default	Description
apiKey	string	(env)	Browser Use API key
baseUrl	string	https://api.browser-use.com	Cloud API base URL
timeoutMs	number	300000	Request timeout
model	string	(none)	Default model

Verified

• pnpm typecheck · pnpm build · pnpm test (4 tests, mocked HTTP).
• Tested with @deepseek-ai/dsh-tools ^0.1.0-rc.6.

Honest limits

• This is a cloud-API bridge; it needs a Browser Use API key.
• Local mode is provided by DeepSeek Harness's own mcp-client, not by this package; this README documents both so you can pick the cheaper path.
• It returns the raw response; it does not stream or poll for completion.
• Community plugin, not an official Browser Use or DeepSeek product.

中文

给 DeepSeek Harness 的 Browser Use 桥接：让 dsh agent 通过 Browser Use 云 API 执行真实网页任务（打开页面、点击、输入、填表、抽取数据）。

注册一个 browser_use_run 工具：把任务转发给 Browser Use，返回原始运行结果。 这是薄桥接，不重新实现 Browser Use，也不冒充官方。

dsh plugin --profile web add dsh-browser-use

需要配置 Browser Use API key（apiKey 配置项，或环境变量 BROWSER_USE_API_KEY）。

两种模式：云端 vs. 本地

模式	需要	得到的工具
云端（本插件）	Browser Use API key	browser_use_run
本地（免费，无需 key）	Python + browser-use 已安装	mcp__browser_use__browser_exec、mcp__browser_use__browser_screenshot

本地模式（无需 Browser Use API key）

Browser Use 也能以本地 MCP stdio 服务运行，无需云订阅。DeepSeek Harness 已经内置 @deepseek-ai/dsh-mcp-client，所以本地路径不需要本插件。先安装一次 Browser Use（pip install 'browser-use[cli]'），然后把你 profile 的 cordis.yml 加上：

- insert:
    - id: browser-use-local
      name: '@deepseek-ai/dsh-mcp-client'
      config:
        serverName: browser_use
        transport: stdio
        command: browser-use
        args: ['--cli-mcp']
        cwd: !!js process.cwd()

这会注册 mcp__browser_use__browser_exec 和 mcp__browser_use__browser_screenshot。现成可复制的文件在 examples/local-mcp.cordis.yml。
