Verifying the validity of your docs is a key part of mantaining good documentation. However, manually auditing docs is tedious and error-prone. This notebook builds an automated docs checker that crawls your documentation site with Browserbase and analyzes each page with Cerebras for quality issues. To get started, you’ll need the following API keys:

​
Step 1: Environment Setup + API Keys

Install dependencies and configure Cerebras, Browserbase, and Langchain 
!pip install -q playwright browserbase stagehand langchain-community cerebras-cloud-sdk pandas pydantic GitPython
!python -m playwright install chromium

import os
import asyncio
from datetime import datetime
from collections import deque, Counter
from urllib.parse import urlparse

import httpx
import pandas as pd

from pydantic import BaseModel, Field
from playwright.async_api import async_playwright
from IPython.display import display, clear_output, Markdown
from typing import Optional, List, Literal
Set your Cerebras and Browserbase credentials. You can also set these as environment variables. 
CEREBRAS_API_KEY = os.getenv("CEREBRAS_API_KEY", "YOUR_CEREBRAS_API_KEY")
BROWSERBASE_API_KEY = os.getenv("BROWSERBASE_API_KEY", "YOUR_BROWSERBASE_API_KEY")
BROWSERBASE_PROJECT_ID = os.getenv("BROWSERBASE_PROJECT_ID", "YOUR_BROWSERBASE_PROJECT_ID")
GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN = os.getenv("GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN", "YOUR_GITHUB_TOKEN")

CEREBRAS_MODEL = "gpt-oss-120b"

print(f"✓ Configuration loaded")
print(f"  Model: {CEREBRAS_MODEL}")

​
Step 2: Define Data Models

First, create pydantic models to capture crawl results and detect issues. Concretely, the checker will detect the following categories of issues:
  • Unresolved references: links, anchors, or assets that fail to resolve.
  • Invalid snippets: code or structured blocks that are syntactically invalid or contain obvious placeholders.
  • Source-of-truth mismatches: claims in the docs that do not match an authoritative source (for example, a repository).
  • Cross-page inconsistencies: factual contradictions across different documentation pages.
  • Language errors: clear spelling or grammatical errors.
  • Missing required elements: required context (such as authentication or installation steps) that is absent based on predefined rules. 
class Issue(BaseModel):
    category: str
    description: str
    page_url: str
    location: Optional[str] = None
    observed: Optional[str] = None
    expected: Optional[str] = None
    evidence: List[str] = Field(default_factory=list)

class LinkResult(BaseModel):
    url: str
    ok: bool
    status: Optional[int] = None
    error: Optional[str] = None

class PageResult(BaseModel):
    url: str
    issues: List[Issue] = Field(default_factory=list)
    links: List[LinkResult] = Field(default_factory=list)

print("✓ Data models defined")

​
Step 3: Crawl Documentation with Browserbase

Use a breadth-first search to discover pages, extract content, and detect broken links during the crawl itself. 
from browserbase import Browserbase

bb = Browserbase(api_key=BROWSERBASE_API_KEY)
session = bb.sessions.create(project_id=BROWSERBASE_PROJECT_ID)
BROWSERBASE_CDP_URL = session.connect_url

    """Return a LinkResult for whether this URL resolves (lightweight HTTP check)."""
    try:
        r = await client.head(url, follow_redirects=True, timeout=8)
        return LinkResult(url=url, ok=(r.status_code < 400), status=r.status_code, error=None)
    except Exception as e:
        return LinkResult(url=url, ok=False, status=None, error=str(e))


async def crawl(root_url: str, max_pages: int = 30, max_depth: int = 2) -> list[PageResult]:
    """

    """
    base_domain = urlparse(root_url).netloc

    visited: dict[str, PageResult] = {}
    queue = deque([(root_url, 0)])

    async with async_playwright() as p:
        browser = await p.chromium.connect_over_cdp(BROWSERBASE_CDP_URL)
        page = await browser.new_page()

        async with httpx.AsyncClient() as http:

                if url in visited or depth > max_depth:

                    )

                                    evidence=[href],
                                )

​
Step 5: AI Analysis with Cerebras

Next, use Stagehand (for agentic browser automation) powered by Cerebras (fast inference) to analyze content to identify deeper issues: outdated information, unclear writing, missing context, and grammar errors. The analysis uses structured outputs for reliable JSON parsing.

    "language_error",
    "missing_required_element",
]

ISSUES_SCHEMA = {
    "type": "array",
    "items": {
        "type": "object",
        "properties": {

Step 6: Display Results

Finally, let’s write three functions to view and export findings.
  • summarize: Provides high-level statistics across all pages without listing individual issues
  • show_issues: Displays all issues in a structured table, with optional filtering by severity (critical, high, medium, low)
  • export_issues: Combines both views into a readable Markdown report with overall summaries and issue-level details

    display(HTML(html))

print("Styled display ready! Use: display_styled_report(page_results, DOCS_URL)")

Step 7: Run the Analysis

As a last step, configure your target docs site and run the full pipeline. 
# Configure your target
DOCS_URL = "https://docs.browser-use.com/"
MAX_PAGES = 30
MAX_DEPTH = 2

# Crawl
page_results = await crawl(
    DOCS_URL,
    max_pages=MAX_PAGES,
    max_depth=MAX_DEPTH,
)

# Analyze
page_results = await analyze_all_optimized(page_results)

# Show results
summarize(page_results, DOCS_URL)
show_issues(page_results)

# Export report
report_md = export_markdown(page_results, DOCS_URL)
display(Markdown(report_md))
This is a tutorial implementation. For production use, add rate limiting, authentication handling, improved crawl controls, and stricter output validation.
