browse_console

Read-only

Navigates to a URL once and returns bounded browser console diagnostics for debugging page errors and logs.

Instructions

Navigate once and return bounded console diagnostics.

Input Schema

Name	Required	Description	Default
`os`	No	Optional OS to spoof. Can be 'windows', 'macos', or 'linux'. If not specified, will rotate between all OS types.
`url`	Yes	The URL to navigate to. Must be a fully qualified http or https URL.
`args`	No	Additional browser command-line arguments to pass to the browser. Rejected unless CAMOUFOX_MCP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_OPTIONS=1; denied args are always rejected.
`geoip`	No	Automatically detect geolocation based on IP address.
`proxy`	No	Proxy configuration for routing browser traffic through an HTTP(S) proxy. Proxy servers are checked against the same local-network URL policy as page requests.
`locale`	No	Browser locale (e.g., 'en-US', 'fr-FR').
`window`	No	Set fixed window size [width, height] instead of random generation. An empty array [] is accepted and treated as if the window parameter was not specified.
`timeout`	No	Timeout in milliseconds for page load (5-300 seconds).
`headless`	No	Run browser in headless mode. Auto-detects best mode for environment if not specified.
`humanize`	No	Enable realistic cursor movements and human-like behavior for better stealth and anti-detection.
`viewport`	No	Custom viewport dimensions.
`emulation`	No	Context emulation for diagnosing how the page behaves under other conditions.
`block_webgl`	No	Block WebGL to prevent fingerprinting and tracking.
`block_images`	No	Block all images for faster loading, reduced bandwidth, and lightweight browsing.
`block_webrtc`	No	Block WebRTC entirely for enhanced privacy and stealth.
`disable_coop`	No	Disable Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy for sites that require it.
`enable_cache`	No	Cache pages, requests, etc. Uses more memory but improves performance when revisiting pages.
`waitStrategy`	No	Wait strategy for page load. Defaults to 'domcontentloaded'. 'load' waits for all resources, 'networkidle' waits for network activity to finish.	domcontentloaded
`captchaPolicy`	No	Challenge handling policy. 'detect' reports signals, 'pause' returns state for human action, 'fail' returns an error, 'attempt' returns enhanced challenge metadata, interactive elements, a bounded screenshot, and a suggested strategy. When CAPTCHA_AUTONOMOUS=true, responses are marked for LLM-assisted handling and include provider-specific challengePlaybook context when known.
`exclude_addons`	No	List of default addons to exclude (e.g., ['ublock_origin']). Rejected unless CAMOUFOX_MCP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_OPTIONS=1.
`includeConsole`	No	Include bounded page console diagnostics in the JSON response.
`includeNetwork`	No	Include bounded network diagnostics in the JSON response.
`stealthProfile`	No	Convenience profile for common Camoufox browser settings. Explicit options override profile values.	normal
`firefox_user_prefs`	No	Custom Firefox user preferences to set. Rejected unless CAMOUFOX_MCP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_OPTIONS=1; denied prefs are always rejected.

B3.2/5.0

Behavior3/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, openWorldHint=true, and destructiveHint=false, so the description need not repeat safety basics. It adds 'once' and 'bounded console diagnostics', but omits meaningful behavior around CAPTCHA policy, unsafe-option environment gating, proxy policy, and what 'bounded' actually caps.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The definition is one front-loaded sentence with no filler. It may be terse for a 24-parameter tool, but the dimension measures conciseness and every word contributes.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

A rich schema, output schema, and annotations reduce what the description must carry. Still, for a complex open-world navigation tool with 24 options and many close siblings, one sentence is minimum viable and leaves selection and behavioral context thin.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so all 24 parameters are already documented in the schema. The description adds no parameter-specific meaning; baseline 3 applies for high coverage with no extra parameter guidance.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a clear verb and resource ('Navigate') plus output scope ('bounded console diagnostics'), and 'once' hints at single-shot behavior versus session-based siblings. It does not explicitly name alternatives, so sibling differentiation is implicit.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

There is no when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance, and no mention of alternatives such as browse_session_navigate or browse_diagnose. An agent must infer from the name and schema that this is for one-off console diagnostics rather than persistent browsing.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
