The agent's screenshot_board tool drives a Playwright browser running as a sibling container, navigates to the tokenized render route, screenshots the stage as a JPEG, and passes the image block straight through to the model. The budget is five shots per session, which turns out to be plenty: the working rhythm that emerged is look, move, look again. Think with the document, judge with the pixels.

The foundational decision is understanding that Playwright is a control library, not a browser. It speaks Chrome DevTools Protocol (CDP) to whatever binary you point it at, and the binary is entirely separate from the library. This distinction is what makes a remote browser service possible.

Playwright

Starting from Bun v1.3.12, a new experimental API called Bun.Webview was introduced. It enables simple browser automation and can partially replace tools like Playwright. Pretty exciting, so I gave it a try.

Playwright is the recommended choice for new projects, since it is faster than Selenium, has a cleaner async API, and supports Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit.

Each Rendershot worker is a Docker container running an ARQ (Redis-backed) job queue. Jobs come off the queue, get rendered with Playwright, and the resulting bytes are uploaded and the file path written back to Postgres. Concurrency is bounded; the worker fleet scales horizontally — no shared state between workers, just one Chromium process each.
