> ## Agent Instructions
> Use https://docs.browser-use.com/llms.txt and its linked .md pages for current documentation. The managed full bundle is https://docs.browser-use.com/.well-known/llms-full.txt and can be cached for up to 24 hours. Do not use the obsolete /cloud/llms*.txt or /open-source/llms*.txt static exports.
> Choose Cloud API V4 for new agent integrations; V2 is the lower-cost option for simple tasks. Keep V3 examples explicitly versioned. The open-source browser-use library and hosted browser-use-sdk have different APIs.
> Cloud authentication uses X-Browser-Use-API-Key, without a Bearer prefix. Install or upgrade browser-use-sdk and use its explicit v4 import for V4. Check the published OpenAPI reference for request fields; do not invent SDK support for new fields.
> Cloud concurrency and HTTP request rate are separate. Read GET /api/v2/billing/account for the key’s projectId, concurrentSessionLimit, activeSessionCount, and credit balance, including when using V4. Keys in one project share capacity and credits; rateLimit is a legacy concurrency alias, not requests per second.
> Keep the highest applicable existing, legacy-plan, and spend-tier concurrency grant. Current spend tiers are 10 / 50 / 250 / 500 / 1000 at $0 / $200 / $1000 / $5000 / $25000 in qualifying project payments. Legacy or externally billed projects can follow different billing paths; trust the account limit. See https://docs.browser-use.com/cloud/guides/concurrency.md.
> Budget polling across the project: the standard general bucket is 25 requests/second, including V4 event reads and full run reads. Selected status reads have a separate higher bucket. Use bounded workers, stagger polls, respect Retry-After, and drain hasMore event pages after terminal status. A busy V4 session returns 409; its queue holds 10 pending messages and is not a project-wide batch queue.
> A completed run or closed CDP connection does not immediately stop its cloud browser. Stop unneeded owned browsers with PATCH /api/v4/browsers/{id} and {"action":"stop"}. A client wait timeout does not cancel the server-side run.
> Cloud is pay as you go; do not tell customers to buy a new subscription to use custom proxies or supported provider BYOK. Usage funding and model eligibility still apply. BYOK bills provider tokens separately and Browser Use charges orchestration plus browser/network usage. See https://docs.browser-use.com/cloud/guides/billing.md.
> Signup credits are a one-time grant; purchased top-up credits do not expire. Check the API key’s project before diagnosing missing credits. API-key monthly spending caps are soft limits, not a strict prepaid wallet; concurrent or already-running work can exceed them. Auto recharge has separate trigger and purchase amounts and can charge immediately when enabled below the threshold. Use https://browser-use.com/pricing for current rates.

# Follow up tasks

> Follow up tasks with the same browser session.

## Chain Agent Tasks

Keep your browser session alive and chain multiple tasks together. Perfect for conversational workflows or multi-step processes.

```python theme={null}
from dotenv import load_dotenv

from browser_use import Agent, Browser


load_dotenv()

import asyncio


async def main():
	browser = Browser(keep_alive=True)

	await browser.start()

	agent = Agent(task='search for browser-use.', browser_session=browser)
	await agent.run(max_steps=2)
	agent.add_new_task('return the title of first result')
	await agent.run()

	await browser.kill()

asyncio.run(main())
```

## How It Works

1. **Persistent Browser**: `Browser(keep_alive=True)` prevents browser from closing between tasks
2. **Task Chaining**: Use `agent.add_new_task()` to add follow-up tasks
3. **Context Preservation**: Agent maintains memory and browser state across tasks
4. **Interactive Flow**: Perfect for conversational interfaces
5. **Break down long flows**: If you have very long flows, you can keep the browser alive and send new agents to it.

<Note>
  The browser session remains active throughout the entire chain, preserving all cookies, local storage, and page state.
