How to find a fact on a web page and confirm its source with Axuse

An agent opens a page, locates a named link or value, and reports where it points.

Authorization notice. Axuse is dual-use. Only use it on software, sites and systems you own or have explicit permission to test.

Who it is forA journalist or researcher who needs to check a claim on a specific web page before publishing or citing it.

The problemScreenshot-based agents guess pixel positions and often misclick or miss small text, so the answer is slow to get and hard to trust.

The outcomeThe agent returns the matching element text and its destination, based on the accessibility snapshot rather than an image guess.

What you need first

  • Node.js 22 or newer
  • A Chromium-family browser (Chrome, Edge, Chromium, or Chrome for Testing), or AXUSE_BROWSER set to its path
  • git to clone the repository
  • Codex or Claude Code installed as the MCP host

Steps

  1. git clone https://github.com/ctoldigital/axuse.git
  2. cd axuse
  3. node src/cli.js doctor
  4. codex mcp add axuse -- node /abs/path/axuse/src/cli.js mcp
  5. Ask the agent to open the target URL, find the link, and report where it goes.

Prompt for your agent

Using the axuse MCP server from the repo at <repo path>, open <target URL>, find the link labeled <link text>, and report its destination. Check that the reported destination matches the link target shown in the accessibility snapshot before answering.

Caveat. Axuse needs a local Node.js 22 install and a clone of the repo, so it is not a copy-and-paste setup for non-developers; use the non-developer onboarding guide in the repo for that path.
