JasonHonKL/PardusBrowser: Pure Rust Browser for AI Agents Without Chromium — Semantic Tree in Milliseconds
Show HN·medium signal
Pardus Browser is a Show HN project that strips away Chromium entirely for AI agent browsing. Written in pure Rust with zero browser binary dependencies, it fetches URLs via reqwest, parses HTML with scraper, and outputs a clean semantic tree — ARIA roles, headings, landmarks, interactive elements — in milliseconds, not seconds. Three output formats (Markdown, tree, JSON). The thesis: AI agents don't need screenshots, they need structured page semantics.
