How It Works

This server uses Playwright to connect to a remote browser session via Browserbase's CDP (Chrome DevTools Protocol) endpoint. It navigates Audible pages and extracts data via DOM scraping.

Since Audible does not have a public API, this approach uses browser automation. The Browserbase session maintains cookies and authentication state between calls.
