Can I maintain logged-in sessions between runs?

Yes, the skill includes patterns for capturing and restoring browser cookies and local storage to bypass repeated authentication steps.

What common errors does this skill prevent?

It provides specific patterns to prevent 'Target closed' errors, page.pause() hangs in CI, and permission prompt blocks, among others.

How does this skill help with bot detection?

It implements stealth plugins, masks WebDriver flags, randomizes user agents, and simulates human-like mouse movements to appear like a legitimate user.

Does it support the latest versions of Playwright?

Yes, it is optimized for Playwright v1.57.0+, including the transition to 'Chrome for Testing' for more authentic browser behavior.

Why use Playwright Local instead of Cloudflare Browser Rendering?

Local execution uses your residential IP address, which is significantly harder for anti-bot systems to detect compared to the datacenter IPs used by cloud services.
