Description
browser-automation is an agent skill for building reliable browser checks. It uses the browser tool that you have already selected or installed in the project. The skill treats Playwright, Puppeteer and Selenium as having different integrations, and it asks you to choose from your actual requirements rather than from success-rate claims. Its principles are observed UI state, semantic locators, bounded waits, isolated test data and explicit outcome checks. It separates tests of applications you control from interaction with an existing authenticated browser, and it says not to replace the latter with a fresh, unauthenticated session, nor to extract credentials to make a test work. It includes a Playwright test example. Use it when you are writing end-to-end checks for a web application you own, or automating a browser task you are authorised to carry out. It is part of the sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills repository on GitHub, which has about 47,600 stars. The listing shows it as free, and it has about 6,700 installs. Its security audits show passes from Gen Agent Trust Hub and Socket, with a warning from Snyk.…
