## Evaluation Prompt

````text

# Task
Using https://docs.browserbase.com/reference/introduction, complete the following task:

Using Browserbase, build me a Python script that:

1. Install the Browserbase Python package
2. Open a browser session
3. Navigate to "https://example.com"
4. Extract the page title and the main heading (h1) text
5. Take a screenshot and save as "screenshot.png" (if supported)
6. Close the session
7. Print results as JSON: {"url": "...", "title": "...", "heading_text": "...", "screenshot_saved": true/false}

Use the official Browserbase Python library — not raw HTTP calls. 

## Execution
After creating the script, run it to verify it works:
```bash
cd /home/daytona/app && python <your_script>.py
```

The script should print output to stdout. If there are errors, debug and fix them until it runs successfully.
