In the next patch release, the in-app browser in Nous Research’s agent app will be able to use the user’s cookies and passwords if the user allows it. The agent’s own browser tool already works this way.

Teknium of Nous Research announced the change on X on 7 November. Teknium wrote that the in-app browser will work in the same way as the agent’s own browser tool, which can already use the user’s login details.

Websites use cookies to store information in the browser, such as whether the user is logged in. Cookies keep the browser logged in, so the user does not have to enter the password again. A browser with the user’s cookies can usually access the same services as the user.

In the text of the post, Teknium does not explain how the feature works, and the image does not show which of its functions are new. According to the image in the post, the cookies come from the user’s own browser profile, and their use can be switched on or off. When the switch is off, the browser is not logged in to services.

The image also indicates that users can select a saved login from a password vault with a key button, and that the model does not see the password. The agent can also fill in forms on a page the user sees in the in-app browser, according to the image. This information comes from the company and has not been independently verified.

The feature is not yet available. Teknium said it will come in the next patch release but gave no release date. Using cookies and passwords requires the user’s permission.
