agentcore

A way to run agent-browser in browser sessions hosted by AWS Bedrock AgentCore. AWS is a cloud platform, and AgentCore supplies managed browser sessions in the cloud.

In plain words
What is it for?
Opening websites in an AgentCore browser, inspecting and interacting with pages, taking screenshots, and configuring the AWS region, browser, profile, and session timeout.
Why use it?
It moves browser work from the local computer to AWS infrastructure. The same browser commands can be used while AWS handles the remote session.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

agentcore scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 3d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

AWS Bedrock AgentCore

Run agent-browser on cloud browser sessions hosted by AWS Bedrock AgentCore. All standard agent-browser commands work identically; the only difference is where the browser runs.

Setup

Credentials are resolved automatically:

  1. Environment variables (AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, optionally AWS_SESSION_TOKEN)
  2. AWS CLI fallback (aws configure export-credentials), which supports SSO, IAM roles, and named profiles

No additional setup is needed if the user already has working AWS credentials.

Core Workflow

# Open a page on an AgentCore cloud browser
agent-browser -p agentcore open https://example.com

# Everything else is the same as local Chrome
agent-browser snapshot -i
agent-browser click @e1
agent-browser screenshot page.png
agent-browser close

Environment Variables

Variable Description Default
AGENTCORE_REGION AWS region us-east-1
AGENTCORE_BROWSER_ID Browser identifier aws.browser.v1
AGENTCORE_PROFILE_ID Persistent browser profile (cookies, localStorage) (none)
AGENTCORE_SESSION_TIMEOUT Session timeout in seconds 3600
AWS_PROFILE AWS CLI profile for credential resolution default

Persistent Profiles

Use AGENTCORE_PROFILE_ID to persist browser state across sessions. This is useful for maintaining login sessions:

# First run: log in
AGENTCORE_PROFILE_ID=my-app agent-browser -p agentcore open https://app.example.com/login
agent-browser snapshot -i
agent-browser fill @e1 "[email protected]"
agent-browser fill @e2 "password"
agent-browser click @e3
agent-browser close

# Future runs: already authenticated
AGENTCORE_PROFILE_ID=my-app agent-browser -p agentcore open https://app.example.com/dashboard

Live View

When a session starts, AgentCore prints a Live View URL to stderr. Open it in a browser to watch the session in real time from the AWS Console:

Session: abc123-def456
Live View: https://us-east-1.console.aws.amazon.com/bedrock-agentcore/browser/aws.browser.v1/session/abc123-def456#

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

agentcore is a skill published in the GitHub repository vercel-labs/agent-browser (41,715 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 89 tokens to every session and 936 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
