## Description

OpenBrowser is an AI web agent toolkit and automation framework designed to translate natural language instructions into executable browser workflows. It functions as a headless browser controller and orchestrator, enabling the creation of autonomous agents that navigate websites, interact with elements, and extract data using plain English commands.

The system features a sandboxed execution environment that utilizes domain whitelists and memory limits to ensure secure web interaction. It distinguishes itself through a command-line interface for triggering autonomous tasks with configurable model providers and a real-time steerability mechanism that allows humans to guide active sessions with live prompts.

The toolkit covers broad capability areas including browser session management, page content extraction, and direct browser interaction such as clicking and typing. It also supports automated testing of multi-step workflows and the conversion of page structures into structured text for processing.
