Seems your install instructions are hitting a 404? bun and the sh script

self-published benchmark in README claims a 16% lower workflow token cost than Vercel's agent-browser on a Google Flights task (plus a much smaller install footprint).

I was using https://www.brow.sh/ for page fetching. This looks more interesting, but also it is just wrapper around Chrome Developer Tools? `kuri-fetch` is not stand-alone then, it needs chrome running somewhere.

In the comparison table, kuri-fetch is described as "no Chrome needed".

Yes, this is why I wrote this comment.

I did some (really shallow) research and there is lightpanda that seams a bit better solution to search the web from some agent than some wrapper around the Chrome Developer Tools.

There is also my engine https://github.com/DioxusLabs/blitz (which compared to lightpanda: has layout and rendering but does not have JS execution).

Nice this is great! Maybe we finally will have new browser in this 'AI age' :)`
