What It Does
Thinking Bounded Rationality packages a focused browser & research workflow for an AI agent. Use when search or investigation could run forever. Set an explicit good-enough threshold first, then stop at the first option that clears it. It is best suited to users who can review the resulting actions and provide only the accounts, files, or command access needed for the task. It is not a substitute for human approval on destructive, financial, security-sensitive, or public-facing actions.
Popular Use Cases
