This is basically our approach with Herd[0]. We operate agents that develop, test and heal trails[1, 2], which are packaged browser automations that do not require browser use LLMs to run and therefore are much cheaper and reliable. Trail automations are then abstracted as a REST API and MCP[3] which can be used either as simple functions called from your code, or by your own agent, or any combination of such. You can build your own trails, publish them on our registry, compose them ... You can also run them in a distributed fashion over several Herd clients where we take care of the signaling and communication but you simply call functions. The CLI and npm & python packages [4, 5] might be interesting as well. Note: The automation stack is entirely home-grown to enable distributed orchestration, and doesn't rely on puppeteer nor playwright but the browser automation API[6] is relatively similar to ease adoption. We also don't use the Chrome Devtools Protocol and therefore have a different tradeoff footprint. 0: https://herd.garden https://herd.garden 1: https://herd.garden/trails https://herd.garden/trails 2: https://herd.garden/docs/trails-automations https://herd.garden/docs/trails-automations 3: https://herd.garden/docs/reference-mcp-server https://herd.garden/docs/reference-mcp-server 4: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@monitoro/herd https://www.npmjs.com/package/@monitoro/herd 5: https://pypi.org/project/monitoro-herd/ https://pypi.org/project/monitoro-herd/ 6: https://herd.garden/docs/reference-page https://herd.garden/docs/reference-page
