browser-automation SKILL.md skillB
browser-automation from different-ai/openwork is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add different-ai/openwork/browser-automation@git:20261015.ef455caPins git:20261015.ef455ca in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Local OpenWork Electron browser automation with CDP. Use when driving a local Electron dev app, browser_list, browser_snapshot, browser_eval, composer automation, or local UI smoke tests.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Browser Automation
For verdicts, do not drive CDP by hand — write or run an `evals/core` journey or `evals/proofs` proof (`write-a-spec`, `run-tests`). This skill is for exploration and debugging only.
## What I Do
- Attach OpenCode browser tools to the OpenWork Electron app during local development.
- Drive the app UI through Electron's Chrome DevTools Protocol endpoint.
- Send a task/session from the composer and confirm the response in the UI.
## Local Dev Setup
`pnpm dev` enables Electron CDP by default:
```sh
OPENWORK_ELECTRON_REMOTE_DEBUG_PORT=${OPENWORK_ELECTRON_REMOTE_DEBUG_PORT:-9823}
```
The default browser URL for OpenCode browser tools is:
```text
http://127.0.0.1:9823
```
The app UI normally loads at:
```text
http://localhost:5173/
```
To use a different CDP port, launch with an override:
```sh
OPENWORK_ELECTRON_REMOTE_DEBUG_PORT=9830 pnpm dev
```
To disable Electron CDP for a run:
```sh
OPENWORK_ELECTRON_REMOTE_DEBUG_PORT=0 pnpm dev
```
## Background Launch
Use a detached launch when the user wants the app running in the background:
```sh
nohup pnpm dev > /tmp/openwork-dev.log 2>&1 &
```
Then wait for the CDP port:
```sh

How to install
mdr add different-ai/openwork/browser-automation@sha256:f03be9ea68582acdThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261015.ef455ca, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
