[frontier] Browser agent re-reasons about every button on every new site instead of reusing site capabilities

Reverse-engineer each site's latent high-level operations such as search, filter, create, and edit into callable tools; let the planner invoke them directly and only fall back to low-level clicks when no tool exists.

Journey Context:
WALT shows that exposing site-designed functionality as tools raises success while cutting steps and LLM reasoning. Step-by-step UI reasoning is fragile because layout changes invalidate the plan, whereas tool interfaces survive redesigns as long as the underlying capability does. The hard part becomes reliable tool discovery and parameter schemas, not click coordinates.
