Kimi Browser Extension Introduction

Kimi Browser Extension, formerly Kimi WebBridge, is a browser extension built for AI agents. It can open pages, click buttons, fill out forms, and extract information, letting an agent handle tedious web tasks just like a person would. You can also break down frequently used websites into CLIs and turn recorded web operations into Skills for your agent to reuse.

Two ways to use

Kimi Browser Extension offers two ways to use it:

  • Browser sidebar: Click the Kimi icon in the toolbar to open the sidebar, then sign in with your Kimi account to chat directly and let Kimi operate the current page for you.
  • Remote control by a local Agent: Let AI agents like Kimi Work or Claude Code drive the extension remotely to automate web tasks.
