Browser automation for AI agents: one compact page view, then only what changed, and batched guarded actions. Usually 2 to 3 calls per task instead of a dozen, with far less context. For MCP clients like Claude Desktop. Runs locally; free tier, no card.
Overview
Reflex
Browser automation built for AI agents that drive a browser from MCP clients like Claude Desktop.
Reflex sends one compact view of the page and then only what changed, and batches several actions into a single guarded call. In practice a task is usually 2 to 3 calls instead of a dozen, with far less context going into the model.
If your agent has a shell, the Playwright CLI and Vercel's agent browser are great and free. Reflex is for clients that only speak MCP. It runs locally so your pages and sessions stay on your machine, and there is a free tier with no card.
Install: npx -y reflex-browser mcp
