Purpose and operating environment
Agent mode in the ChatGPT Atlas browser for navigating pages, clicking and completing Web steps under user control. Available functions depend on browser and security settings.
This solution can be used in a provided or installed environment. Check available modes, authorized accounts and action scope before assigning work.
A practical application
Visit three official pages, extract comparable details and draft a sourced report.
Before starting, define the expected artifact, authorized data, success criteria and actions requiring approval. Keep source links or files. Compare claimed success to the actually observed outcome.
Before your first task
In Atlas, open the ChatGPT sidebar and choose Agent mode before describing a browsing task.
Read setup prerequisites, licensing, model requirements and account restrictions on the provider site. Never paste API keys into a public page or a shared prompt.

Limitations and safeguards
Browser agents may encounter malicious instructions in pages. Avoid unnecessary credentials or broad permissions.
Evaluate answer quality, tool selection, permissions, reproducibility, total cost and prompt injection risk separately. If the agent can send, delete, pay or publish, require explicit confirmation and verify the outcome in the destination system.
