What it does

Use My Browser is an agent skill from aiskillstore/marketplace. Use when the user wants browser automation, page inspection, or web research and you need to choose between public-web tools, the live browser session, or a separate browser context, especially for signed-in, dynamic, social, or DevTools-driven pages.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 8 other files, including reference files (for example `README.md`, `README.zh.md` and `references/browser-recipes.md`). Compatibility notes: Environment with chrome-devtools, web, playwright, shellcommand, and multitooluse.parallel available.

It sits in Productivity & Automation, covering Browser automation. It works with Chrome DevTools. The repository describes itself as: Security-audited skills for Claude, Codex & Claude Code. One-click install, quality verified.

When your agent uses it

  • The user wants browser automation
  • Page inspection
  • Web research and you need to choose between public-web tools
  • The live browser session

Example prompts

  • “/use-my-browser”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Environment with chrome-devtools, web, playwright, shell_command, and multi_tool_use.parallel available.

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Define success before choosing tools
  2. Start with the cheapest layer that can plausibly succeed
  3. Treat every result as evidence
  4. Preserve the user's session
  5. Search helps you find sources, not prove claims
  6. Prefer site-native URLs and complete parameters

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 755bc35. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    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.

  • Compatibility

    Environment with chrome-devtools, web, playwright, shell_command, and multi_tool_use.parallel available.

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Use My Browser loads about 2.9k tokens when it runs, and up to ~6.2k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 67 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,631 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~67
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.9k
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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,631 words (~2,947 tokens).

“This is the main browser automation strategy skill for nontrivial web work. It teaches the agent when to stay on public-web tools, when to use the live browser session, and when to fall back to a separate browser or raw-fetch…”
