The fastest browser for AI agents to run web automation

English · 简体中文 · 日本語 · 한국어 · Português · Español · Français · Italiano · Русский

ego (lite) is a browser where you and your AI agents work in parallel. Your agents run their browser tasks in their own Spaces, isolated workspaces inside the same browser, while you keep browsing in yours, so no agent ever takes the browser away from you. And the automation itself finishes faster, on fewer tokens.

Existing tools like browser-use and agent-browser are a bridge to the browser, not a browser of their own: they need a separate one to drive, your browser data rarely carries over intact, the connection is unstable, and you and the agent end up fighting over control of the browser. ego lite is one browser designed from the start for the two of you to share. No extra setup, and the agent can always reach your real logins and tabs through ego-browser.

Quick Start

ego lite runs on macOS today, a Windows closed beta is coming soon, and Linux is on the roadmap.

1. Install

Pick whichever fits your flow.

1.1 Download the macOS app

Click to download, then open it to install. Either way, ego lite adds the ego-browser skill to every agent's skills directory on your machine.

1.2 Add the skill with npx

Install just the ego-browser skill:

npx skills add citrolabs/ego-lite

The first time your agent runs a browser task, it walks you through installing the ego lite app.

1.3 Let your agent set it up

Paste this into your agent:

Set up ego lite for me: https://github.com/citrolabs/ego-lite

Read `skills/ego-browser/references/install.md` and follow the steps to install ego lite.

On first launch, ego lite asks one question, whether to migrate your Chrome data. Say yes and your agent inherits your existing logins, cookies, extensions, and bookmarks.

2. Try your first task

In your agent CLI, type /ego-browser followed by a space, then describe what you want in plain language:

ego-browser follow @ego_agent on x.com for me

The agent picks up the ego-browser skill, opens the page in its own Space, reads a Snapshot (the page turned into structured text), acts on the page, and reports back, all while your own tabs stay untouched.

Your browsing data, cookies, and everything else the browser holds stay on your device. ego lite keeps its data collection deliberately narrow: simple product signals, like whether you've set ego lite as your default browser.
