The Lens

OpenCLI gives you one surface for three jobs: site adapters that turn websites into CLI commands, browser automation for AI agents using your logged-in Chrome session, and a hub for the local CLIs you already use. The pitch is that an agent can drive 100+ sites and your local tools through one consistent interface instead of you wiring up each integration.

The Browser Bridge extension is the real trick. It connects to Chrome over the DevTools Protocol so your agent acts inside your real, authenticated browser session. No headless instance, no separate login. Apache 2.0 licensed, TypeScript core. Plugin support means new site adapters and agent skills land continuously.

Solo devs and small teams using AI agents for web automation get the biggest win. If your agent needs to file an issue in Linear, post to Notion, or pull data from a SaaS dashboard you already log into, this avoids building one-off integrations.

The catch: handing an agent your logged-in browser is powerful and dangerous. The blast radius of a hallucinating agent is everything you're signed into. The ecosystem is still young, and the site adapter list is growing but uneven. Some sites work great. Others are flaky.

Free vs Self-Hosted vs Paid

fully free

Fully open source under Apache 2.0. No paid tier, no hosted version. You install the Browser Bridge extension and the CLI locally and run it on your own machine. The tool itself is free; cost lives in the LLM tokens your agent burns through during automation runs.
