AI agents and automation

ego-lite

by citrolabs

ego lite is a desktop browser that lets AI agents such as Claude Code or Codex carry out web tasks in their own separate workspaces, using your existing logins. It is meant for people who want agents to automate browser work without taking over their own browsing.

What you can do with it

  • Ask an AI agent to carry out tasks on websites where you are already logged in, while you keep browsing
  • Run several agents in parallel, for example enriching leads or checking competitor sites in separate Spaces
  • Add the ego-browser skill to Claude Code, Codex or Cursor so they can click, fill in forms and read pages

Could replace

  • Browserbase

Our suggestion based on what it does, not a feature-by-feature comparison.

Make money with it

A freelancer could offer browser-based research or lead-enrichment services, using agents to do the repetitive work faster.

An idea, not financial advice. Check the licence before charging for anything built on it.

Ways a business could use it

  • Automate repetitive web admin, such as data entry or checking supplier and competitor sites, without paying for a cloud browser service
  • Gather and enrich sales leads in parallel using your own logged-in accounts

Can you use it commercially?

Free to use, change and sell, including in paid products. Keep the copyright notice.

Not legal advice. Read the project's licence file before building a product on it.

Getting it running

Download the macOS or Windows installer, or run "npx skills add citrolabs/ego-lite" and let your agent guide you through installing the app.

Follow the official instructions in the project README.

Things to check

  • Needs an AI agent (such as Claude Code or Codex), which may involve paid subscriptions or API costs
  • Giving agents access to your real logged-in sessions carries security and account risks
  • Scraping and automating sites may breach their terms of service
  • Linux is not yet supported
  • Downloads come from a vendor CDN, and the app may collect limited product usage data

Worth a look

iFixAi is a command-line tool that tests an AI agent by placing it in a simulation of your business and sending it realistic requests, including ones that push it beyond its role. A separate AI judge grades each reply, so you can see whether the agent behaves as intended.

Worth a look

Claude-mem records what an AI coding assistant does during a session, summarises it with AI, and feeds the relevant parts back into later sessions. It is for people who want their coding agent to remember project decisions and history instead of starting from scratch each time.
