Official Python SDK for the Yutori API

Project description

Yutori Python SDK & CLI

PyPI version Python 3.9+

The official Python SDK and CLI for the Yutori API — build web agents that autonomously execute tasks on the web.

The SDK offers sync and async clients with full type annotations, plus a yutori CLI for authentication and managing resources from the terminal.

Install

On macOS or Linux, the recommended setup is the one-line installer:

curl -fsSL https://yutori.com/install.sh | bash

This installs the global yutori CLI with uv tool install, then — in an interactive terminal — prompts (with sensible defaults) to add the SDK to your project, run yutori auth login, configure the Yutori MCP server, install workflow skills, and run a verification browsing task. In a non-interactive session (CI, pipe) the auth, MCP, skills, and verification prompts are skipped with guidance on how to finish setup.

Python 3.9+ is required for the SDK.

Uninstall the CLI later
curl -fsSL https://yutori.com/uninstall.sh | bash

Removes the global yutori CLI. Saved credentials at ~/.yutori/ are left in place so they survive reinstalls — rm -rf ~/.yutori manually if you want a clean slate. Set YUTORI_UNINSTALL_ASSUME_YES=1 for scripted runs.

Install the package manually
pip install yutori

Or add it to an existing project with uv:

uv add yutori
Authenticate manually

Run this once to save your API key:

yutori auth login

This opens your browser to log in with your Yutori account and saves an API key to ~/.yutori/config.json. The SDK and CLI automatically pick it up.

If you installed the package with uv add, run uv run yutori auth login instead.

Or use an env var / pass the key explicitly:

from yutori import YutoriClient

client = YutoriClient()                  # Uses saved credentials or YUTORI_API_KEY
client = YutoriClient(api_key="yt-...")  # Or pass explicitly

Resolution order: explicit api_key > YUTORI_API_KEY env var > ~/.yutori/config.json.

API Overview

The Yutori API provides four main capabilities:

API Description SDK Namespace
Navigator Computer-use model family (Navigator n1, Navigator n1.5) client.chat
Browsing One-time browser automation tasks client.browsing
Research Deep web research using 100+ tools client.research
Scouting Continuous web monitoring on a schedule client.scouts

Navigator API

The Navigator API hosts Yutori's family of computer-use models for navigating websites. The current public versions are Navigator n1 (model id n1-latest) and Navigator n1.5 (model id n1.5-latest). Capture a screenshot, send it to the model, and execute the returned tool calls. The endpoint follows the OpenAI Chat Completions interface, so client.chat is a drop-in OpenAI-compatible client:

from yutori import AsyncYutoriClient
from yutori.navigator import aplaywright_screenshot_to_data_url
from playwright.async_api import async_playwright

async with AsyncYutoriClient() as client, async_playwright() as p:
    browser = await p.chromium.launch()
    page = await browser.new_page()
    await page.goto("https://www.yutori.com")

    image_url = await aplaywright_screenshot_to_data_url(page)

    response = await client.chat.completions.create(
        messages=[
            {
                "role": "user",
                "content": [
                    {"type": "text", "text": "List the team member names."},
                    {"type": "image_url", "image_url": {"url": image_url}},
                ],
            }
        ],
    )

    message = response.choices[0].message
    print(message.content)  # Model's thoughts
    for tool_call in message.tool_calls or []:
        # Execute the requested browser action on `page`, append the tool
        # result to the conversation, capture a fresh screenshot, and call
        # the model again...
        ...

This snippet shows a single model call. In practice, you'll usually run an agent loop: execute the returned actions on the page, capture a fresh screenshot, and call the model again until it emits stop. Complete agent loops live in examples/.

The SDK defaults to Navigator n1.5 (n1.5-latest). Navigator n1 (n1-latest) is still supported for callers that want the older model. Navigator n1.5 adds selectable tool sets, disable_tools, and structured JSON output via json_schema (returned as response.parsed_json). See the Navigator n1.5 reference and Navigator n1 reference for model IDs, parameters, and the full action space.

Agent-loop helpers

The yutori.navigator subpackage exposes optional helpers for typical agent loops:

Helper Purpose
aplaywright_screenshot_to_data_url(page) Capture a Playwright screenshot as a Navigator-optimized WebP data URL.
denormalize_coordinates(coords, width, height) Map the Navigator 1000×1000 coordinate space to viewport pixels.
format_task_with_context(task, ...) Append location, timezone, and current date to a task message.
format_stop_and_summarize(task) Ask the model to summarize when hitting max steps or an error.
trimmed_messages_to_fit(messages, max_bytes, keep_recent) Drop older screenshots to stay under the API size limit.
map_key_to_playwright(key) / map_keys_individual(keys) Convert Navigator n1.5's lowercase key names to Playwright format.
yutori.navigator.tools Packaged JS reference implementations for the Navigator n1.5 expanded tools (extract_elements, find, set_element_value, execute_js).

Full helper reference: api.md.

If you'd rather not manage browser infrastructure, use the Browsing API below, which runs the Navigator on Yutori's cloud browser.

Browsing API

Run one-time browser automation tasks on Yutori's cloud browser (or on Yutori Local with the user's logged-in desktop sessions):

task = client.browsing.create(
    task="Give me a list of all employees (names and titles) of Yutori.",
    start_url="https://yutori.com",
)

# Poll for completion
import time
while True:
    result = client.browsing.get(task["task_id"])
    if result["status"] in ("succeeded", "failed"):
        break
    time.sleep(5)

print(result)

Common options: require_auth=True for login flows, browser="local" for Yutori Local, webhook_url=... for async completion notifications. Failed tasks may include a rejection_reason.

Structured output

Define the output structure with a JSON Schema dict or a Pydantic model:

from pydantic import BaseModel  # optional dependency

class Employee(BaseModel):
    name: str
    title: str

task = client.browsing.create(
    task="Give me a list of all employees (names and titles) of Yutori.",
    start_url="https://yutori.com",
    output_schema=Employee,  # Auto-converted to JSON Schema
    webhook_url="https://example.com/webhook",
)

The same output_schema pattern applies to client.research.create and client.scouts.create.

Research API

Perform deep web research using 100+ MCP tools (search engines, APIs, data sources):

task = client.research.create(
    query="What are the latest developments in quantum computing from the past week?",
    user_timezone="America/Los_Angeles",
)

# Poll for results
while True:
    result = client.research.get(task["task_id"])
    if result["status"] in ("succeeded", "failed"):
        break
    time.sleep(5)

Failed tasks may include a rejection_reason.

Scouting API

Scouts run on a schedule to monitor the web and notify you when relevant updates occur:

scout = client.scouts.create(
    query="News, product updates, and announcements about Yutori AI",
    output_interval=86400,  # Daily (seconds, min 1800)
    webhook_url="https://example.com/webhook",
)

# Manage scouts
scouts = client.scouts.list(status="active")
client.scouts.update(scout["id"], status="paused")
client.scouts.update(scout["id"], status="active")
updates = client.scouts.get_updates(scout["id"], limit=20)
client.scouts.delete(scout["id"])

Async Usage

AsyncYutoriClient mirrors YutoriClient with async methods:

import asyncio
from yutori import AsyncYutoriClient

async def main():
    async with AsyncYutoriClient() as client:
        usage = await client.get_usage()
        scouts = await client.scouts.list()
        print(usage, scouts)

asyncio.run(main())

Error Handling

from yutori import YutoriClient, APIError, AuthenticationError

try:
    client.get_usage()
except AuthenticationError as e:
    print(f"Invalid API key: {e}")
except APIError as e:
    print(f"API error (status {e.status_code}): {e.message}")

CLI

# Authentication
yutori auth login      # Log in via browser
yutori auth status     # Show current auth status
yutori auth logout     # Remove saved credentials

# Scouts
yutori scouts list
yutori scouts create -q "monitor for news"
yutori scouts create -q "monitor for news" -i daily -tz America/New_York
yutori scouts get SCOUT_ID
yutori scouts delete SCOUT_ID

# Browsing
yutori browse run "extract all prices" https://example.com/products
yutori browse run "log in and continue" https://example.com/login --require-auth
yutori browse run "export dashboard data" https://example.com/dashboard --browser local
yutori browse get TASK_ID

# Research
yutori research run "latest developments in quantum computing" -tz America/Los_Angeles
yutori research get TASK_ID

# Usage
yutori usage

Run yutori --help or yutori <command> --help for full options.
