Show HN: Selector Forge – browser extension for AI-generated resilient selectors
Not a pilot. Intuned just shipped Selector Forge—an AI agent that generates resilient CSS/XPath selectors that actually survive page changes.
Why it matters
A practical AI-powered developer tool that solves a real fragility problem in browser automation. As coding agents scale, reliable selector generation becomes table stakes for production-grade automation workflows.
The key facts
13 to knowSelector Forge browser extension now live on Chrome and Firefox
Free tier: 200 selectors/month; unlimited on paid plans
Open-sourced on GitHub (github.com/Intuned/selector-forge)
Generated selectors use semantic HTML/XPath (e.g., //div[@aria-label=...]) vs brittle class-based selectors (#top > div.w-100.ph0-l...)
Built by Intuned team as abstraction layer from their coding agent (Intuned Agent) for browser automation
Next roadmap: CLI and MCP integration for direct agent access
Addresses documented problem: 'most fragile part of any browser code is usually the selectors'

Open-sourced by Intuned, available on Chrome and Firefox
Generates semantic, resilient selectors vs. brittle class-based alternatives (e.g., avoids #top > div.w-100.ph0-l.ph3.ph4-m > h1 > span)
Built as abstraction layer from Intuned Agent (browser automation coding agent)
Roadmap includes CLI and MCP exposure for AI agents to call directly
