What it does

It sits in Productivity & Automation, covering Browser automation, Browser testing and Forms and invoices. It works with Playwright and Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: Security-audited skills for Claude, Codex & Claude Code. One-click install, quality verified.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks require web browsing
  • Form submission
  • Any browser interaction

Example prompts

  • “/browser-use”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • Node.js
  • A Bash shell

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Navigate to page
  2. Get snapshot to find element refs
  3. Fill form fields using refs
  4. Click submit
  5. Wait for confirmation
  6. Screenshot result

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4ac52da. 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

    Ships 3 files in scripts/ (Shell and Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python3
    • bash
    • npx

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npx, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    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

Browser Use loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~6.2k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 61 tokens; SKILL.md has 213 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~61
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~6.2k

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 213 words (~1,074 tokens).
