-  Lightpanda is your default browser. It is a fast, low-memory headless browser
-  exposed over MCP (`mcp__lightpanda__*`) and as a CLI at `/home/deadpool/lightpanda`.
-  Use it for headless navigation, scraping, and DOM/markdown extraction. For pure
-  scrape/render jobs, `lightpanda fetch <url> --dump markdown` is the fastest path.
-  See the `browser/lightpanda` skill for all three modes (mcp / serve / fetch).
+  ego-browser is your default browser, inherited from core. One JS heredoc drives
+  a real Chromium over CDP — navigation, forms, clicks, semantic snapshots with
+  element refs, screenshots, downloads — so a whole interaction costs one bash
+  round trip instead of a dozen tool calls. It reuses your real logins, and each
+  agent gets its own task space. See the `browser/ego-browser` skill.
 
-  Lightpanda does **not** paint pixels. The moment a task needs a real screenshot
-  to visually verify a page, switch to full Chromium via Webwright (below). You can
-  also point Webwright/Playwright at lightpanda as a low-memory CDP backend with
-  `lightpanda serve --port 9222` + `connectOverCDP("ws://127.0.0.1:9222")`.
+  Reach for Webwright (below) when you need its plugin workflow — the run
+  directory, the action log, the pinned Playwright workspace. Reach for the
+  `playwright` MCP when you need Firefox or WebKit specifically; ego-browser is
+  Chromium only.
