Overview

What is AgentKit Browser Automation?

AgentKit Browser Automation is a browser agent built with Inngest-AgentKit and Firebase-Genkit, featuring an agent system for intelligent web navigation and task execution. It integrates with Playwright MCP to control a browser via an MCP server.

How to use AgentKit Browser Automation?

Install Node.js v20+, clone the repository, install dependencies, and set environment variables for OpenAI and/or Google AI keys. Start the Playwright MCP server on port 8931, then run either npx tsx genkit.ts (for Genkit SDK) or npx tsx agentkit.ts (for Inngest-AgentKit). Optional dev servers provide built‑in observability.

FAQ from AgentKit Browser Automation

What are the prerequisites?

Node.js v20+, npm/yarn, an OpenAI API key (for GPT models), and a Google AI key (for Gemini models).

How do I start the Playwright MCP server?

Run npx @playwright/mcp@latest --port 8931 in a separate terminal window before launching the agent.

What is the difference between the Genkit and AgentKit modes?

The Genkit mode (npx tsx genkit.ts) uses the Genkit SDK, while the AgentKit mode (npx tsx agentkit.ts) uses Inngest-AgentKit. Both achieve browser automation but differ in their agent framework.

Can I run a dev server for observability?

Yes. For Genkit mode, run npx genkit start -- npx tsx --watch genkit.ts. For AgentKit mode, run npx inngest-cli@latest dev --no-discovery -u http://localhost:3000/api/inngest -v. Both provide built‑in OpenTelemetry observability.
