Browser Use's API design and agent discoverability are strong, but two areas are holding back partner adoption: partners and their AI agents lack the structured context needed to understand and integrate the API confidently, and onboarding friction is high without a self-service portal or in-doc code samples. Closing the agent instructions and runnable collection gaps should be the immediate priority, followed by a self-service portal with embedded code samples — together these compress partner evaluation time and give AI coding agents the grounded context they need to integrate correctly without guessing.
API DesignA clean, typed, well-governed API contract agents can reason about4 pass1 warn0 fail98A+
| Signal | Points | Findings | Rationale | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| pass | Machine-readable, versioned contractvia spec | 25/25 | Versioning declared (info.version="3.0.0") and url-versioning detected. Investigated: spec 100%, docs 100%. | A current OpenAPI version with a declared versioning scheme lets agents reason about the contract. |
| pass | Auth declared & discoverablevia spec | 25/25 | authentication documented in the docs site at https://docs.browser-use.com/cloud/agent-signup. Investigated: spec 100%, docs 100%. | Agents can only authenticate when auth is declared, scoped, and discoverable. |
| warn | Schema coverage & depthvia sdk | 22.6/25 | 69/73 (95%) public params are fully typed (no any/**kwargs). Analyzer reports not all methods have a derivable input schema. Investigated: sdk 91%, spec 67%. | Typed, complete request/response schemas are what make agent function-calling possible. |
| pass | Security & governance hygienevia spec | 15/15 | No credential-shaped strings detected in spec. Investigated: spec 100%, wellknown 0%. | No leaked secrets, no critical lint violations, no OWASP API Top-10 spec smells, and a published vulnerability-disclosure channel. |
| pass | Example coveragevia sdk | 10/10 | README is present and includes a runnable quickstart. Investigated: sdk 100%, spec 0%, docs 0%. | Examples carry shape semantics schemas under-specify — for humans and agents alike. |
Developer ExperienceThe context both developers and agents need to integrate fast — onboarding, code samples, complete descriptions and worked examples2 pass1 warn2 fail62C
| Signal | Points | Findings | Rationale | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| pass | Quickstart presentvia docs | 25/25 | Quickstart at https://docs.browser-use.com/open-source/quickstart with a runnable first-call sample. Investigated: docs 100%. | A quickstart is the fastest path from landing page to first successful call. |
| warn | Description completenessvia sdk | 14/15 | 40/43 operations carry a description. Investigated: sdk 93%, spec 0%. | Complete descriptions are the context humans and agents need to use endpoints. |
| pass | Changelog publishedvia sdk | 13/13 | Newest official SDK activity 0 day(s) ago. Investigated: sdk 100%, spec 0%, docs 0%. | A published changelog lets partners track changes without surprise. |
| fail | Self-service developer portalvia docs | 0/29 | No signup page detected across conventional paths (/signup, /sign-up, /register, /get-started, /console/signup, /dashboard/signup, /try, /try-free, /free, /free-trial, /start, /start-free). Investigated: docs 0%. | Self-serve key/account creation is the fast first call for partners, with no sales gate. |
| fail | Code samples in docsvia docs | 0/18 | No detectable code samples across 20 sampled docs pages. Investigated: docs 0%. | Multi-language samples shorten time-to-first-call. |
Agent DiscoveryPartners and their agents can find your APIs — llms.txt, registries, crawlable and reachable docs3 pass1 warn0 fail97A+
| Signal | Points | Findings | Rationale | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| pass | Docs reachable, not hard auth-gatedvia docs | 30/30 | All 50 sampled pages are publicly accessible. Investigated: docs 100%. | Agents can only index and fetch docs they can reach — past auth gates and over correct HTTP semantics. |
| pass | Registry & SDK presencevia docs | 28/28 | Indexed on Context7 (browser-use/browser-use, 1002 snippets). Investigated: docs 100%, sdk 100%, mcp 50%, cli 0%, wellknown 0%. | Listing in MCP registries and publishing SDKs puts the API where agents and their tooling look. |
| warn | llms.txt present, valid & comprehensivevia docs | 26.3/30 | llms.txt covers 32/211 sitemap doc pages (15%); 179 missing. Investigated: docs 88%, sdk 0%. | A valid, comprehensive llms.txt is the machine-readable entry point for agents. |
| pass | Crawlable / AEOvia wellknown | 12/12 | Docs paths crawlable by all monitored AI agents. Investigated: wellknown 100%. | Bots allowed plus a fresh sitemap make docs findable by agent crawlers. |
Agent UnderstandingAgents can correctly interpret your APIs — machine-readable errors, consistent descriptions, structured data, parseable docs3 pass2 warn1 fail86A
| Signal | Points | Findings | Rationale | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| pass | Machine-readable errors (RFC 9457)via docs | 28/28 | 5 distinct 4xx/5xx response codes documented. Investigated: docs 100%, spec 50%, sdk 0%. | RFC 9457 problem details and a documented error-code inventory let agents parse failures without burning tokens. |
| pass | Operation purpose clarityvia spec | 25/25 | 96% of operations have a clear summary + operationId an agent can select on. Investigated: spec 100%. | Agents select the right endpoint from its summary + operationId; clear, named operations make tool-selection reliable — the strongest driver of correct tool choice. |
| warn | Agent-navigable, token-efficient docsvia docs | 20.9/22 | 3 of 50 pages have minor content differences between markdown and HTML. Investigated: docs 95%. | Server-rendered, clean, small-footprint docs are what an agent can cheaply fetch and parse correctly. |
| pass | Docs structured datavia docs | 8/8 | JSON-LD Article markup on 19/19 assessed pages (100%) with dateModified present. Investigated: docs 100%. | Structured data (JSON-LD/schema.org) on docs pages gives agents an unambiguous parse target and is what answer engines cite. Detected on the JS-rendered head (Firecrawl) for a bounded page budget, so JS-injected JSON-LD is now caught; pages we can't render are excluded rather than failed. |
| warn | Description consistency across surfaces | 2.2/7 | Mean pairwise description similarity across 2 surfaces (docs, sdk) is 11% (threshold 35% for full credit). | Every surface tells the same story about what the product is. |
| fail | Agent instructions file (AGENTS.md)via wellknown | 0/10 | No AGENTS.md at the site root or /.well-known/. Investigated: wellknown 0%. | An AGENTS.md gives coding agents explicit setup, auth, and usage instructions to interpret and operate the API — beyond llms.txt's link index. |
Agent UsabilityAgents have the context to use your APIs reliably, not just find them3 pass0 warn2 fail74B
| Signal | Points | Findings | Rationale | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| pass | Idempotency documentedvia sdk | 27/27 | Built-in retry machinery is present (grep-derived). Investigated: sdk 100%, spec 0%, docs 0%. | Documented idempotency lets agents retry safely. |
| pass | Pagination documented & consistentvia docs | 22/22 | pagination documented in the docs site at https://docs.browser-use.com/cloud/guides/mcp-server. Investigated: docs 100%, spec 50%, sdk 40%. | Consistent, documented pagination lets agents traverse collections. |
| pass | Sandbox separationvia sdk | 20/20 | Sandbox environments are exposed (sandbox). Investigated: sdk 100%, spec 0%, docs 0%. | An isolated environment lets agents exercise destructive operations safely. |
| fail | Rate-limit signalingvia spec | 0/22 | No rate-limit response headers documented. Investigated: spec 0%, docs 0%. | Machine-readable rate-limit headers let agents throttle adaptively. |
| fail | Runnable collection with test scriptsvia platform | 0/9 | No public Postman workspace discovered for the org. Investigated: platform 0%. | A public, maintained collection with assertions is runnable truth agents validate against. |
