Use this skill when automating browser interactions with Playwright — testing, scraping, monitoring, form submission, screenshot capture, and multi-page interaction flows. Covers setup, navigation, element interaction, assertions, and cleanup. Designed for agentic platforms — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, OpenClaw, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf, and OpenCode.

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 — Agent Skill

Production-grade browser automation using [Playwright](https://playwright.dev). Covers end-to-end testing, web scraping, synthetic monitoring, form automation, and screenshot capture — with safe defaults, robust selectors, and CI/CD portability.

## Quick Reference

| Task | Pattern | Selection Priority |
|---|---|---|
| Launch browser (sync) | `sync_playwright() → p.chromium.launch(headless=True)` | Default for one-off scripts |
| Launch browser (async) | `async_playwright() → await p.chromium.launch()` | Required for pytest suites |
| Find element (best) | `page.get_by_test_id("foo")` | 🥇 data-testid |
| Find element (good) | `page.get_by_role("button", name="Submit")` | 🥈 role-based |
| Find element (ok) | `page.get_by_text("Sign In")` | 🥉 user-visible text |
| Find element (last) | `page.locator("form#login input")` | ⚠️ CSS/XPath fallback |
| Fill a form field | `page.get_by_label("Email").fill("user@example.com")` | Prefer labels |
| Click & wait for result | `await expect(page.get_by_text("Success")).to_be_visible()` | Auto-retries 5s |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add jpeetz/agent-skills/browser-automation@sha256:1ea5068e4fadc978

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.1.0, 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.
