Access

Createcreate("steel")

CLIbrowsers scrape https://example.com -p steel

Toolprovider: "steel"

Steel scrapes in one call to /v1/scrape, no session involved, and that's why it sits first in the registry: set STEEL_API_KEY and it's the default for everything it can do.

What comes back is HTML. Asked for markdown, the tool still got the raw page, <html lang="en"><head>… and a whole stylesheet. That's a lot of CSS to pay for when you wanted two sentences. Pass maxChars if a model is on the other end, or use a provider that answers in markdown.

Screenshots run in a session, which the CLI and the tools open and release for you. Sessions also carry a CDP URL for your own Playwright.
