Browser Use
A core primitive capability of AI agents that enables them to operate web interfaces directly (clicking, filling forms, scraping, etc.), covering the long tail of scenarios unreachable via APIs, such as JavaScript rendering, logged-in states, and dynamic interactions.

Asynchronous sub-agents and browser use were cited by this expert as two examples of tight harness-infra integration.
The expert announced that the asynchronous sub-agent and browser use features are already included in MDA version 0.10.
The difficulty of testing browser use lies in dynamically changing web content, dependence on JavaScript rendering, anti-scraping measures and login-state management, among other issues; mocking alone struggles to cover real behavior.
In browser use scenarios, lifecycle management of browser instances, resource quotas and network policies are the infra's responsibility, while assertion and evaluation logic are the harness's responsibility.
Browser use capability is considered the key differentiator between Agent systems and pure coding harnesses, enabling Agents to access virtually any web service.
