Browser Automation Safety Checklist

Browser-controlled AI is powerful because it can use the same web tools your team uses. It also needs strict boundaries before production.

Allowed browser scope

  • Define the exact websites, portals, and dashboards the agent can open
  • Block unrelated domains and risky pages
  • Limit each run to a specific task and expected outcome

Action boundaries

  • Allow reading, comparing, extracting, and drafting by default
  • Require approval before submit, send, pay, delete, purchase, or update
  • Add a hard stop for unexpected popups or permission prompts

Credential safety

  • Avoid giving the agent shared admin credentials
  • Use workflow-specific accounts where possible
  • Keep secrets out of prompts and logs

Evidence capture

  • Log page URLs, extracted values, screenshots, decisions, and approvals
  • Store enough evidence for a manager to review the action
  • Flag mismatches between expected and observed page states

Human review

  • Show the proposed action before execution
  • Let reviewers approve, edit, or reject
  • Route repeated uncertainty into workflow improvement
