Outcrawl open-sources Scout, a browser agent that works with any model

Outcrawl released Scout under the Apache-2.0 licence. You describe a task in plain words, and it uses a real browser to click, type and scroll until the job is done, or tells you what is missing and returns what it found. It has no built-in model: you plug in any service that speaks the standard chat completions API, including a model on your own computer, and can use different models for taking steps, planning, reading screenshots and extracting answers. It runs locally with Playwright, or on Outcrawl's cloud, which adds captcha solving and run replays, with 1,000 free credits a month. It is a TypeScript package for Node 22 or later, and can return answers in a fixed JSON shape.
