Persephone's builder claims agent-authored 'site extensions' — Claude studies a frequently-used site once and writes a script reducing ~18,000-character page snapshots into a few hundred characters of typed data and actions (tickets, read(id), open(id)) — and the pattern being adopted by other browser-agent harnesses establishes site-as-tool-model as a standard token-efficiency layer, while confinement to one tool closes it.
