## AI that uses the browser like humans.

Sign in once, keep the session, and pull structured data out the other side.

```typescript
import { localBrowser, Stagehand } from "@browserbasehq/stagehand";
import { z } from "zod/v4";

// Cookies persist in ./browser-data, so the next run starts already signed in
const browser = await localBrowser.launch({ userDataDir: "./browser-data" });
const stagehand = await Stagehand.create({
  browser,
  model: { modelName: "openai/gpt-5.4-mini", apiKey: process.env.OPENAI_API_KEY },
});

const [page] = await browser.context.pages();
await page.goto("https://app.example.com/login");

// observe() returns real selectors, so credentials never reach the model
const { data: email } = await stagehand.observe("find the email input");
const { data: password } = await stagehand.observe("find the password input");
await page.locator(email[0].selector).fill(process.env.APP_EMAIL!);
await page.locator(password[0].selector).fill(process.env.APP_PASSWORD!);

// act() self-heals when the site redesigns its form
await stagehand.act("click the sign in button");
await stagehand.act("open the billing page");

// extract() returns schema-validated data
const { data } = await stagehand.extract(
  "extract every invoice in the table",
  z.object({
    invoices: z.array(z.object({ number: z.string(), amount: z.number(), paid: z.boolean() })),
  }),
);

console.log(data.invoices);

await stagehand.close();
await browser.close();

## Install

```bash
pnpm add @browserbasehq/stagehand 'zod@~4.4.3'
```

<details>
<summary><b>Python</b></summary>

```bash
pip install stagehand
```

</details>

<details>
<summary><b>Go</b></summary>

```bash
go get github.com/browserbase/stagehand/packages/sdk-go/v4@v4.0.0
```

</details>

Local runs need [Chrome](https://www.google.com/chrome/) installed. Full setup: [Quickstart](https://docs.stagehand.dev/v4/first-steps/quickstart).

<details>
<summary><b>Using a coding agent? (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex)</b></summary>

Install the `browse` CLI and skill instead of using the SDK directly:

```bash
npm install -g browse
npx skills add browserbase/stagehand --skill browse
browse open https://example.com --local
browse snapshot
browse get title
```

No LLM key or Browserbase account needed for local use. See [CLI vs SDK vs hosted MCP](https://docs.stagehand.dev/v4/first-steps/choosing-your-path) for when to use each.

## Why Stagehand

<table>
  <tr>
    <td><strong>Familiar APIs</strong></td>
    <td>The Playwright-style methods you and your agents already know: <code>goto</code>, <code>click</code>, <code>locator</code>, <code>screenshot</code>.</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><strong>Token efficiency</strong></td>
    <td>Hybrid accessibility-tree trimming gives agents exactly the page context they need and nothing more.</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><strong>Faster in production</strong></td>
    <td>Stagehand runs as an extension next to the browser, cutting round-trip latency on every action.</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><strong>Self-healing</strong></td>
    <td><code>act</code>, <code>observe</code>, and <code>extract</code> refresh how an action happens when the site changes underneath it.</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><strong>Built for agents</strong></td>
    <td>WebMCP, clipboard support, batch commands, deep locators for nested iframes and closed Shadow DOMs, OTel traces.</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><strong>Three languages</strong></td>
    <td>One complete browser driver across TypeScript, Python, and Go.</td>
  </tr>
</table>

## Run it on Browserbase

Point the same script at [Browserbase](https://www.browserbase.com) and get 2x faster execution than Playwright cloud equivalent browsers. Configure the [Model Gateway](https://docs.stagehand.dev/v4/configuration/models#model-gateway) so you never wire up a provider, and enable [server-side caching](https://docs.stagehand.dev/v4/best-practices/caching) to cache repeated actions.

```typescript
import { browserbase, Stagehand } from "@browserbasehq/stagehand";

const browser = await browserbase.launch({ apiKey: process.env.BROWSERBASE_API_KEY! });

// No model configuration: the Model Gateway picks the cheapest model for each action
// cache: true: identical calls come back from Browserbase, no tokens spent
const stagehand = await Stagehand.create({ browser, cache: true });
```

<details>
<summary><b>Python</b></summary>

```python
import os

from stagehand import Stagehand, browserbase

browser = await browserbase.launch(api_key=os.environ["BROWSERBASE_API_KEY"])

# No model configuration: the Model Gateway picks the cheapest model for each action
# cache=True: identical calls come back from Browserbase, no tokens spent
stagehand = await Stagehand.create(browser=browser, cache=True)
```

</details>

<details>
<summary><b>Go</b></summary>

```go
browser, err := stagehand.LaunchBrowserbase(ctx, stagehand.BrowserbaseLaunchOptions{
	APIKey: os.Getenv("BROWSERBASE_API_KEY"),
})
if err != nil {
	return err
}

// No model configuration: the Model Gateway picks the cheapest model for each action
// CacheEnabled(true): identical calls come back from Browserbase, no tokens spent
cache := stagehand.CacheEnabled(true)
client, err := stagehand.Create(ctx, stagehand.CreateOptions{
	Browser: browser,
	Cache:   &cache,
})
if err != nil {
	return err
}
```

[Verified mode](https://docs.browserbase.com/platform/identity/verified-customization), [residential proxies](https://docs.browserbase.com/platform/identity/proxies), [persistent contexts](https://docs.browserbase.com/platform/browser/core-features/contexts), and [session recordings](https://docs.browserbase.com/platform/browser/observability/session-replay) come with it. [Get an API key](https://www.browserbase.com/overview) and learn how to configure your browser [here](https://docs.stagehand.dev/v4/configuration/browser).

## Hosted MCP: browser tools without installing anything

The hosted Browserbase [MCP server](https://docs.stagehand.dev/integrations/mcp/setup) puts `navigate`, `act`, `observe`, and `extract` in any MCP client — no install, no local browser. Requires a [Browserbase API key](https://www.browserbase.com/overview).

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http browserbase https://mcp.browserbase.com/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $BROWSERBASE_API_KEY"
```

<details>
<summary><b>Cursor, Codex, and other MCP clients</b></summary>

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "browserbase": {
      "url": "https://mcp.browserbase.com/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer <API_KEY>" }
    }
  }
}
```

</details>

For local browsing without an API key, use the [`browse` CLI](./packages/cli#readme) instead.

## Search and fetch without a browser

[Fetch](https://docs.stagehand.dev/v4/add-ons/fetch) lets you grab the content of any URL as markdown. [Search](https://docs.stagehand.dev/v4/add-ons/search) provides fast, token-efficient web search results.
Both as a lightweight complement to browser sessions.

```typescript
import { browserbase } from "@browserbasehq/stagehand";

const { results } = await browserbase.search({
  apiKey: process.env.BROWSERBASE_API_KEY!,
  query: "browser agent frameworks",
  numResults: 5,
});

const fetched = await browserbase.fetch({
  apiKey: process.env.BROWSERBASE_API_KEY!,
  url: results[0].url,
  format: "markdown",
});

console.log(fetched.content);
```

Stagehand is a TypeScript, Python, and Go monorepo driven by [`just`](https://github.com/casey/just):

```bash
git clone https://github.com/browserbase/stagehand.git
cd stagehand
just install
just generate
just build

export OPENAI_API_KEY="your-openai-api-key"
just example act # runs packages/sdk-ts/examples/act.ts
```
