What it does
Playwright E2E Testing is an agent skill from activepieces/activepieces. Playwright modern end-to-end testing framework with cross-browser automation, auto-wait, and built-in test runner
Its SKILL.md is about 6.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Testing & QA, covering End-to-end testing, Browser testing and Browser automation. It works with Playwright and Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: AI Agents & MCPs & AI Workflow Automation • (~400 MCP servers for AI agents) • AI Automation / AI Agent with MCPs • AI Workflows & AI Agents • MCPs for AI Agents.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve End-to-end testing
- Tasks that involve Browser testing
- Tasks that involve Browser automation
Example prompts
- “/playwright-e2e-testing”
Requirements
- Node.js
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Use Stable Locators
- Leverage Auto-Waiting
- Use Page Object Model
- Parallel-Safe Tests
- Handle Flakiness
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8656fb8. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
npxnpm
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
playwright.devgithub.com
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Playwright E2E Testing loads about 6.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 34 tokens; SKILL.md has 240 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 240 words (~6,787 tokens).
