Drive web pages with the agent-browser CLI (Playwright engine) - the primary local browser driver. Connect over CDP to the shared browser-profile Chrome (the hands of vd:web-e2e), or run standalone with --profile isolation. Snapshot with @e refs, fill/click, video recording, network mocking, deterministic batch replay. Use when the user says "agent-browser", "record a video of the flow", "mock that API call in the browser", or asks for browser automation with built-in waiting.

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

# agent-browser

The primary local browser driver in this catalog. In **connect mode** it attaches over CDP to the real Chrome launched by `vd:browser-profile` - persistent human-shared login, Google OAuth in a real browser, and `vd:browser-trace` observing the same session as a second CDP client (verified coexisting). That combination is the hands of `vd:web-e2e`. Its own **`--profile` mode** remains for standalone tasks that want isolation from the shared Chrome. `vd:browser` (Browserbase) is the remote escalation for CAPTCHA/anti-bot/proxy walls, not the default driver.

| Need | Use |
|---|---|
| e2e flows against a local app: shared login, human window, trace evidence | this skill in connect mode, via `vd:web-e2e` |
| Standalone automation, scratch rendering, per-identity isolated profiles | this skill with `--profile` / `--session` |

## Prerequisites

```bash
which agent-browser || npm install -g agent-browser@0.27.2
agent-browser --version          # 0.27.2 pinned
agent-browser install            # one-time Chromium download; standalone --profile mode only
```

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add vanducng/skills/agent-browser@sha256:8278a30b27440d8b

The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.2.0, 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.
