About

Actionbook is an open source “action playbook” platform that gives AI agents up-to-date manuals and a relevant Document Object Model (DOM) structure so they can operate any website instantly and reliably without having to parse full pages or guess element selectors, dramatically reducing execution time and token costs while improving resilience against dynamic or complex web apps. It provides pre-built action manuals with precise verified selectors so agents hit the right elements every time instead of consuming large context windows to explore page structures, and supports modern web technologies such as virtual DOM, streaming components, and single-page applications, so traditional scraping or brittle automation isn’t required. Actionbook’s approach saves up to 100× in token usage, accelerates agent execution, and works universally with any large language model, agent framework, and browser automation tool, enabling developers to integrate it with their existing stacks.

About

Parsel is a BSD-licensed Python library to extract and remove data from HTML and XML using XPath and CSS selectors, optionally combined with regular expressions. Create a selector object for the HTML or XML text that you want to parse. Then use CSS or XPath expressions to select elements. CSS is a language for applying styles to HTML documents. It defines selectors to associate those styles with specific HTML elements. XPath is a language for selecting nodes in XML documents, which can also be used with HTML. You can use either CSS or XPath. CSS is usually more readable, but some things can only be done with XPath. Being built atop lxml, parsel selectors support some EXSLT extensions and come with pre-registered namespaces to use in XPath expressions. Parsel selectors allow you to chain selectors, so most of the time you can just select by class using CSS and then switch to XPath when needed.
