# Moli Headless Browser
High-performance, resource-efficient headless browser built in Rust specifically for AI agents (`lexmount/moli`). Moli renders DOM, executes JavaScript, and returns clean, structured content with a fraction of Chromium's RAM footprint.
## Use This Skill When
- Scraping dynamic JavaScript web pages where simple HTTP clients fail.
- Extracting semantic DOM structures and text for LLM consumption without multi-gigabyte browser dependencies.
- Running parallel web verification or link checking in constrained environments.
## Commands & Usage
```bash
# Launch Moli headless session
moli --url "https://example.com" --extract "article"
# Export structured JSON snapshot
moli dump-dom --url "https://news.ycombinator.com" --output /tmp/dom.json
```
## Checks & Verification
- [ ] Confirm JavaScript execution finishes before DOM snapshot is captured.
- [ ] Verify extracted content retains semantic headings (`h1`-`h6`) and link references.
