CitroLabs Launches Ego-Lite, an Open-Source Browser Built for Human-AI Co-Browsing

CitroLabs has released Ego-Lite, an open-source desktop browser designed to let humans and AI agents browse the web simultaneously without interfering with each other. Traditional automation tools like Playwright and Selenium typically hijack a user's screen and mouse, but Ego-Lite isolates agent tasks to background tabs while the developer continues working normally. The browser allows AI agents to inherit an existing logged-in session, eliminating the need to handle passwords, MFA, or API keys separately. Ego-Lite includes a built-in skill compatible with terminal-based AI coding agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex, enabling them to click, type, and read page content via simple commands. The project is available as an open-source repository on GitHub and is positioned as a lightweight, low-resource alternative to conventional browser automation setups.
