# CLI operations

> Use the Webcompute CLI for browser operations, MCP setup, plugins, model profiles, diagnostics, and updates.

The CLI is the fastest way to run a browser agent and the operator tool for local setup.

## Common commands

```bash theme={null}
web status
web doctor
web model setup
web mcp setup
web plugins install codex
web update
```

Plugin install targets are `codex`, `claude`, and `opencode`.

## Browser operations

Use browser commands when you need manual lifecycle control:

```bash theme={null}
BROWSER_ID=$(web browser create --recording --json | jq -r '.id')
web browser status "$BROWSER_ID" --json
web browser debug "$BROWSER_ID"
web browser close "$BROWSER_ID"
```

## One-off utilities

```bash theme={null}
web scrape https://example.com
web screenshot https://example.com
web pdf https://example.com
```

Use `--proxy` on `web browser create`, `web scrape`, `web screenshot`, and `web pdf` when those surfaces need custom egress. `web agent` does not expose `--proxy`; use the SDK agent browser-create path for proxied agent runs.
