## What it does

The default Dexto agent includes browser automation tools powered by Puppeteer:
- Navigate websites
- Fill out forms
- Click buttons and links
- Extract information
- Make purchases (with approval)
- Screenshot and analyze pages

## How it works

The agent uses browser tools to:
1. Open websites in a real browser
2. Understand page content
3. Interact with elements (click, type, scroll)
4. Complete multi-step tasks
5. Return results or confirmations

## Use Cases

- **Shopping**: Find and add items to cart
- **Research**: Collect data from multiple sources
- **Form Filling**: Automate repetitive data entry
- **Price Comparison**: Check prices across sites
- **Booking**: Reserve hotels, flights, restaurants
- **Content Extraction**: Scrape information from websites

## Try it

```bash
# Use default agent (includes browser tools)
dexto

# Example prompts
"Find the cheapest wireless mouse on Amazon"
"Book a table at an Italian restaurant nearby for 2 people at 7pm"
"Compare prices for iPhone 15 on Best Buy and Amazon"
```

## Safety Features

- **Approval prompts** before purchases or sensitive actions
