Agent safety v2
Strong metadata, audit, install, and review signals. Suitable for agent shortlists after normal workspace review.
Allow agent install in a sandbox or low-risk workspace, then promote after one successful narrow task.
medium
Skill may drive a browser or interact with web pages.
medium
Skill likely fetches remote pages, APIs, repositories, or external services.
Install targets
Copy the registry command or an agent-specific install prompt for Codex, Claude Code, and Cursor.
Use the registry command when your workflow supports the OpenAgentSkill installer.

Workflow fit
Operate web apps
I need my agent to control a browser, fill forms, and verify web app workflows.
Verify behavior
I need my agent to test a web app, reproduce bugs, and verify fixes.
Build and ship code
I need a coding agent that can understand a repository, edit code, and review pull requests.
Workflow fit
Operate and verify web apps
A workflow for agents that navigate products, fill forms, take screenshots, and verify real user flows across web applications.
Inspect, patch, and verify code
A workflow for software agents that inspect repositories, review pull requests, generate tests, and turn findings into shippable patches.
Scrape, clean, and reuse web data
A practical workflow for agents that crawl public pages, extract clean content, normalize data, and hand it to downstream research or RAG workflows.

Similar skills in this category, ranked with the same readiness and quality signals.
Use Playwright to interact with and test local web applications, capture screenshots, debug UI behavior, and inspect browser logs.
Playwright is a framework for Web Testing and Automation. It allows testing Chromium, Firefox and WebKit with a single API.
Automate a real browser from the terminal for navigation, form filling, snapshots, screenshots, extraction, and UI-flow debugging.
Crawlee—A web scraping and browser automation library for Node.js to build reliable crawlers. In JavaScript and TypeScript. Extract data for AI, LLMs, RAG, or GPTs. Download HTML, PDF, JPG, PNG, and other files from websites. Works with Puppeteer, Playwright, Cheerio, JSDOM, and raw HTTP. Both headful and headless mode. With proxy rotation.
Python version of the Playwright testing and automation library.
Imported by the skill-only GitHub discovery pipeline because it matches agent skill, automation, RAG, or developer-tool signals. Protocol-server projects are excluded from automated imports.
