Deploys serverless browser automation scripts to the cloud using the Browserbase CLI and Playwright.
The Browserbase Functions skill enables Claude to guide developers through the end-to-end lifecycle of serverless browser automation. It provides structured patterns for initializing projects, developing locally with a dedicated dev server, and deploying scalable automation scripts to the Browserbase cloud. This skill is particularly useful for moving beyond local scripts to production-grade webhooks, scheduled scraping tasks, and authenticated browser workflows that require persistent cloud infrastructure without the overhead of managing servers.
