Suitable tasks
Prototype a web task in a test environment with an observable outcome.
Limits and checks
Successful navigation does not establish that a business change is correct. Check sessions, permissions, approvals and stopping the remote browser.
A repeatable trial
On a fictional form, request filling without submission. Introduce a missing field and check stopping, explanation and preservation of existing values.
How to decide
Keep the workflow when the agent respects action boundaries and provides evidence of the actual outcome.
Frequently asked questions
Does disconnecting the client close the cloud browser?
Documentation distinguishes disconnection from stopping; explicitly handle session termination.
Official documentation and scope
