What is the Browser Automation skill?

It is a specialized capability for Claude Code that allows it to control a web browser via Playwright to perform tasks like navigation, clicking elements, and data extraction.

How does it identify elements on a page?

The skill uses accessibility snapshots to generate unique element references (refs), ensuring high accuracy when clicking or typing in modern web layouts.

Does it support custom JavaScript execution?

Yes, the browser_evaluate and browser_run_code tools allow you to execute custom scripts directly within the browser context for complex operations.

Can it handle multi-step form submissions?

Absolutely, the skill includes specialized workflows for filling multiple fields, clicking submit buttons, and waiting for confirmation states.

Do I need Playwright installed to use this skill?

Yes, this skill requires the @playwright/mcp server to be installed and running to facilitate the communication between Claude and the browser.
