[FEATURE] Added in-built browser tools using playwright and a parallel playwright node process using spawn for bun-playwright issues.

[ForLoopCodes]

Added browser automation toolkit to the packages/opencode package, just like anthropic's claude in chrome and cursor 2.0. Also, this feature can be turned on by setting the flag OPENCODE_ENABLE_BROWSER=true in the terminal or setting browser: true in opencode.json before running it.

This method does not use mcp but direct integration of browser tools into opencode, doing this can further extend opencode's possibilities to open devtools (not yet, but possible), resize windows, and much more than what extension+mcp method does.

Dependencies:

• playwright

Pull request overview

This PR adds a comprehensive browser automation toolkit to OpenCode using Playwright, providing 28 tools for web automation tasks. The implementation uses a Node.js HTTP server bridge (browser-server.js) to manage Chromium instances, as Playwright doesn't work natively with Bun. The feature is gated behind the OPENCODE_ENABLE_BROWSER environment flag.

Key Changes:

• Browser automation infrastructure: BrowserManager, HTTP bridge server, and 28 automation tools
• Dependencies: Added playwright@1.57.0 and sharp@0.34.5
• Configuration: TypeScript path aliases, new environment flags, and tool registry integration
