Local Agent Can Run Commands, Why Is Browser Automation Still Unavailable?
Local browser capabilities depend on actual installation; a successful connection does not mean the browser tools are ready.
Distinguish Between Command Connection and Browser Dependencies
The Local Agent or desktop can execute ordinary commands, which only indicates that the local execution chain is available. Browser automation also depends on whether the target machine has the appropriate browser and automation tools installed. The current implementation indicates that related tools are pre-installed in the cloud environment, but need to be checked locally first; therefore, a task that succeeds in the cloud does not directly prove that the same browser steps will succeed on your computer.
First Check the Actual Conditions of the Target Machine
Verify the environment selector, then have the Agent check whether the required browser tools are installed, can start, and identify at which step errors occur. Distinguish between 'tool not found,' 'browser startup failure,' and 'target webpage inaccessible,' as they require different handling. Do not immediately assume tools are missing just because the browser screen temporarily does not refresh; if the interface indicates a real-time update disconnection, first use the corresponding reconnection entry.
Clearly Decide on Installation or Alternative Solutions
When installation is needed, first understand the software source, system dependencies, permissions, and scope of impact before granting authorization. You can also use already installed tools or select an environment with dependencies available when the account permits. Do not assume that completing a browsing task justifies automatically installing all components. After fixing, first perform a simple page verification to confirm that the machine and network meet requirements, then resume the remaining steps of the original task.
