browser-use stateandbrowser-use get textallow the agent to read external web content from any URL. - Boundary markers: The documentation does not specify the use of strong delimiters or clear instructions to the agent to ignore embedded commands within the processed web data.
- Capability inventory: The agent has the capability to perform secondary network requests, navigate to new domains, and simulate user inputs based on the content it reads.
- Sanitization: There is no evidence of content sanitization or filtering to prevent malicious web-based instructions from being executed by the agent.
