What is BrowserOS neo (formerly BrowserClaw), and how does it work?
BrowserOS neo is a secondary desktop browser built for AI agents. You import logins from Chrome, connect agents such as Claude Code, Cowork, Codex or Cursor through MCP with one click, and the agent opens its own tabs to browse, click and read while signed in as you. A new-tab dashboard shows every running agent, several can work in parallel, and each session is saved as a scrubbable replay on disk. The browser is open source under AGPL-3.0, runs entirely on your machine and is free; you bring your own AI provider.
