fastbrowse: open-source browser agent cites an exact quote for every claim
teortaxesTex · x · 2026-09-21
Furqan R. introduced fastbrowse, an open-source fast browser agent: the model picks each action directly from the page, an LLM plans, and every claim cites an exact quote — making agent web browsing significantly cheaper and faster. It's early and experimental.
Quoting commentary from LinusMixson: the design will work well, but you can tell an LLM implemented it start-to-finish, since no human cares about "every claim citing an exact quote" — LLMs care intensely because it placates the devouring Grader.
