What is web-agent-proxy-sdk?

Web Agent Proxy, or WAP, is infrastructure that lets AI agents browse and interact with real web pages through browser sessions that a person controls, rather than giving the agent direct, unrestricted internet access. It works by routing an agent's requests through a bridge server, which then forwards them over a connection to a registered browser runner, such as a Playwright browser instance, that actually loads the page and sends the result back. The project offers several pieces working together. There is a bridge server that coordinates traffic between agents and browser runners, small SDKs for JavaScript and Python that make it easy to send requests from an agent's code, and a browser runner component built on Playwright that performs the actual page visits. Optional end-to-end encryption can scramble the request and response content so that even the bridge server relaying the traffic cannot read the URLs, cookies, or page content being accessed. The system can also manage a pool of multiple browser runners, spreading requests across them and queuing requests when all runners are busy. It includes a real-time web dashboard for watching traffic and browser status, optional API key authentication, and the ability to capture full-page screenshots alongside scraped content. It also ships a Model Context Protocol server so tools like Claude Desktop or Cursor can use it directly, plus ready-made adapters for the LangChain and LlamaIndex agent frameworks, and a benchmark tool for testing how well agent browsing setups work against different websites. The README is explicit about intended use, stating the tool is meant for legitimate, consented automation on sites and accounts the user is authorized to access, and that it should not be used to bypass access controls, solve CAPTCHAs automatically, scrape data from services that forbid it, or access systems without permission. It can be run quickly with Docker Compose, or set up manually using Node.js for development. The README does not state a software license.
