## What it is
natbot is a Python tool that drives a web browser using GPT-3, letting an LLM agent navigate and interact with web pages. It serializes the DOM and prompts the model to decide browser actions.

## Use cases
- automate web browsing with an LLM agent
- let GPT-3 click and navigate web pages
- build a browser automation agent powered by GPT-3
- experiment with LLM-driven web interaction
- prototype AI agents that control a browser

## When to choose
- you want a minimal, hackable example of an LLM browser agent
- you're experimenting with GPT-3-driven web automation
- you need a simple starting point to build a more capable web agent

## When to avoid
- you need a production-grade, maintained browser agent with multi-tab and feedback features
- you want modern LLM support beyond GPT-3
- you need robust DOM handling or prompt chaining, which are listed as unimplemented ideas
