We did the same thing. It took me a few iterations to get the library right, but overall I used approx 10 billion tokens here across a codex and Claude max plan

The first iteration was a rewrite using codex /goal but it ended up producing junk

The second iteration was fable controlling gpt-5.5 agents to write the code with really strong acceptance tests. This pushed the library in the right direction and is basically what you see here today

That makes a lot of sense. Sometimes it's easier to leave the baggage behind. It's too bad..selenium is a masterpiece. Thanks for sharing it with the world

This makes sense. I guess I wanted to understand why starting from scratch was better than "fixing" selenium, but perhaps "fixing" selenium isn't an option?

This is very cool. We were thinking about doing something very similar with Skyvern

What was the reason you went down this path instead of extending selenium with AI features?
