31	## How it works
32
33	1. You give it a website and a goal ("fetch all Apple jobs").
34	2. A browser visits the site, either driven by you or by an AI agent.
35	3. Network traffic is captured to a HAR file.
36	4. Your configured model reads the traffic and writes a working API client in Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Go, Java, C#, PHP, Ruby, or C.
37
38	No more manually opening DevTools, copying cURL commands, and gluing together a client.
39
40	## Install
41
42	```bash
43	uv tool install reverse-api-engineer # or: pip install reverse-api-engineer
44	playwright install chromium
45	```
46
47	## Quick start
48
49	```bash
50	reverse-api-engineer
51	> fetch all apple jobs from their careers page
52
53	# Browser opens. Navigate, interact, close when done.
54	# → ./scripts/apple_jobs_api/ (api_client.py, README.md, example_usage.py)
55	```
56
57	Cycle modes with Shift+Tab:
58
59	\| Mode \| What it does \|
60	\|------\|--------------\|
61	\| `manual` \| You drive the browser; AI generates the client from captured traffic. \|
62	\| `agent` \| An AI agent drives capture autonomously (Playwright or Chrome MCP, or Vercel agent-browser CLI). \|
63	\| `engineer` \| Re-run generation on a previous capture (`engineer <run_id>`). \|
64	\| `collector` \| Agent collects structured data (JSON/CSV) using web search + fetch. \|
65
66	Agent mode providers:
67	- auto (default): Playwright MCP, single workflow for browsing + reverse engineering.
68	- chrome-mcp: drives your real Chrome so you keep existing sessions/cookies. Requires Chrome 146+ and Node.js 20.19+.
69	- agent-browser: [Vercel agent-browser](https://github.com/vercel-labs/agent-browser) CLI (not a Reverse API Engineer browser MCP server). At session start RAE uses whatever `agent-browser` is already on `PATH`, otherwise runs `npm install -g <pin>` (same pin as config / `RAE_AGENT_BROWSER_PACKAGE`), prints a yellow notice, validates with `--help`, and only then falls back to `npx -y <pin>` if npm cannot install. Prompts embed the resolved shell prefix alongside `skills get core --full`, `skills list`, HAR phases, cloud notes from `agent_browser_notes`. Tune with `agent_browser_npx_package` (optional), env `RAE_AGENT_BROWSER_`. First Chromium fetch: `agent-browser install`* (add `--with-deps` on trimmed Linux).
70
71
72	Optional sanity checks:
73
74	```bash
75	agent-browser doctor --offline --quick \|\| true
76	agent-browser skills list >/dev/null
77	```
78
79	## Configuration
80
81	Settings live in `~/.reverse-api/config.json` and can be edited via `/settings` in the CLI:
82
83	```json
84	{
85	"agent_provider": "auto",
86	"agent_browser_npx_package": "agent-browser@0",
87	"agent_browser_notes": "",
88	"claude_code_model": "claude-s
